I don’t even bother using our machines if the lighting is out. Our soda machine can house two or three VOT’s at once. Lots of dark space w/o the light in there.

With the vent systems shut down on any one of our machines I can lace the entire 2K sq ft cleaning room in media dust within minutes of startup. a simple squirrel cage blower blowing into a drum with some cheeze cloth filters is quite suitable for your setup, and greatly improves the visibility inside he cabinet when blasting. You can also use a shop vac, I’m just one for minimizing noise anywhere possible. The machine housing cannot be completely sealed off, so media dust will find it’s way out and form a cloud and pending the media being used it’s not always good to be breathing nor a good thing to have all over shit in the shop(like exposed engine components and car paint)

wait, you mean im not supposed to sit IN the box when im blasting wheels and such? OHHHHHHHHHHH!!! that makes it a little more comfortable! :thumbup
