Try Northern Tool at http://northern-online.com/ or Harbor Freight at ttp://www.harborfreight.com/ They both have small hobby size blasters. TIP no doubt has good equipment, but their prices are really high IMHO. I bought a 40 pound pressurized blaster from Harbor Freight for $80 on sale. It is a Central Pneumatic made in China, but it will do for small jobs. It requires at least 6CFM at 60 PSI...more pressure and CFMs are better, so a 5+hp compressor is needed. While on the subject don't forget a respirator, mask, gloves, hearing protection. I would also suggest using a product called "Black Beauty" or similar blasting media (it is actually coal slag), but it has less than 1% silica content so it is much safer to use then sand (inhaling silica can cause a condition known as Silicosis, not a good thing). It costs a little more than sand but much safer...be careful and have fun...BB
