Do you have a media/sand/bead blast cabinet? Give me the benefit of your experience..

Mine is the older version of this one: http://www.grizzly.com/products/Cabinet-Sandblaster-Double-Door/G0472

It only has a single door on the right, and I use an old 18-gallon shop vac on it as well. I usually run 120x AO in mine, and it makes a nice fine finish. Glass beads are too rough sometimes.

I have a small bench top model that cost about $100 as I was only blasting small parts for parkerizing. I run it off of a 60 gal compressor and wish that I had spent the extra few hundred for a larger blast cabinet with vac filtering system.

I already have this Bead blast cabinet from Raptor Blaster for car restoration projects. Hit it with larger grit garnet, follow up with smaller grit glass bead, finish with alox.
