I have an older harbor freight blast cabinet I use quite often and it sucks. It's the better, older style cabinet they used to sell. The cabinet itself is well made but the media blasting system is not. I've fought it for years now but hopefully that will change. I bought a Tacoma blasting cabinet upgrade kit. I've heard fantastic things about it and I'm excited to get it. They do have a web site but it's mostly a placeholder. If your interested, search YouTube. There are lots of reviews and install videos. The story I keep hearing is once installed properly my HF cabinet will work as well as a $5000 setup. I hope that's true. It's not cheap. They have two kits. $340 & $450. I bought the $340 kit. If anyone is interested I'll post a update once installed.
Anyone else buy this kit?

Here's a pic of the kit.

Kits installed and it's a truly amazing difference. My my cheap blasting cabinet works as well as any professional setup I've used. I now have about $500 in the whole thing. It's no longer a cheap cabinet but for the performance it's worth every penny. I'm adding some led lighting and a water trap vac system to it next.
