David Williams asked about plans for a DIY sandblasting Cabinet.

I bought a set of TIP plans and constructed my sandblasting cabinet about
two years ago. You buy the necessary components from TIP and obtain the
plywood, door hinges and latches, lights and legs locally. I made mine
slightly larger than their plans which means that angles and cuts are
different and you need to do some math. (But heck, if I could work it out
anyone can.)
The total price I wound up paying for my cabinet was under $400. The
same size metal cabinet delivered and ready to use was nearly $800.
If anyone wants complete details, I'll look up the paperwork and post a
list of parts and prices.
BTW, I'm very pleased with the results and have probably gotten more
than my money's worth out of it already.
