Looks impressive, what power supply did it need ?
So this is the biggest 240v supply at 36cfm however simple as that sounds it isn't...
So you need 32a or 40a fuse on your cuircuit board min 32a wiring and plug like you can see all bought from toolstation
Its wiring into the board on the compressor not like conventional into the pressure switch ... works a dream
 
i sand blasted for 7 years doing mostly wagon chassis at a commercial paint shop in the 90's
wish i hadn't as i now have copd
we have a blast cabinet in the workshop but compared to what i used to use it's like comparing a toffee hammer to a sledge hammer

Funny u say that one of my best mates hes got copd welder and next door to a blasters ... and yeah this is for light stuff if I want to do big stuff I go to the unit ... this has done most car parts and with ally oxide nothing it hasn't stripped yet ... take care with ur copd mate .
 
I would take 36cfm with a pinch of salt and just be mindful that's a displacement figure not fad if you haven't got your blaster yet 👍
 
I also ran a sand blasting business doing all sorts from small stuff in the workshop to buildings and I have to say 35cfm is only going to run a small cabinet or gun, it won't run a blasting pot you need at least 75cfm minimum and preferably a lot more, but great idea. (y)
