Pressure Pot Blaster to Sandcarve Glassware

Hi eric,

I was looking for a pressure pot blaster and seen something on harbor freight’s website.

Is this what I can use to sandcarve into the glassware? Also what is the best kind of media to use? What are your thoughts on a soda blasters on their website?

Thanks Eric

Stephen

Stephen,

Yes, that is the inexpensive option I have been recommending for sandcarving. For media, I recommend aluminum oxide or silicon carbide about 100-220 grit. My preference is 150 or 180 grit.

I haven’t used their soda blasters but I am sure they work fine. What are you looking to use those for? They can’t be used for etching or sandcarving.

I am sure you know that, but I just wanted to make sure so you don’t buy the wrong thing. Thanks!
