For those of you who don't want to put out for lighting....the light that comes with it is pretty good if you pull the yellow end cap off and REMOVE THE WHITE INSERT BLOCKING THE LIGHT. Put the yellow end cap back on and you're good to go.

[@jm1551701]

THE Tacoma upgrade kit costs just as much as the whole damn Blaster Cabinet .

[@masoncross-om3oc]

Yes, sir, it does...it's 450.00 easy.. and you don't get much for that money either.. ????

[@mikewerner3797]

What about just adding another layer of foam so that it is thicker and helps seal the trap door better, instead of messing with the hinge and grinding the uneven edge of the trap door frame.?

[@tleonard410]

I sealed every seam with polyurethane . Plan to make it a vapor blaster eventually so any leaks is a major problem . The clean up was a pita used almost 2 rolls of paper towels and acetone

[@AXNJXN1]

Man... I REEEAAALLLLY wished I had seen your cabinet before I started mine...Excellent vid Brother.

[@spytye1]

Me too

[@jimnardo8177]

Hey, this really was encouraging so as to get the most from a Harbor Freight item. I sped it up as fast as I could go and still understand him, then went out and did each stage before I forgot; its working! Good job!

[@joesabal1212]

I love the way u teach, always aware of the newbies in areas that u cover. U look through the eyes of ignorance hoping to conquer the subject at hand.

[@dwwwww]

Did anyone mention acorn nuts for the bolts sticking out? Couple of washers if needed and the sharp bolt ends turned in to nice looking smooth acorn nuts. Kinda spendy for the nuts though.

[@LS11971]

I just ground all mine flush with the nut so I wouldn't snag my clothing on them. Repainted my blast cabinet along with the hardware since it was old and faded anyway when I did this mod on my cabinet. I did not use the Tacoma company parts since they are pretty expensive for their kit. Most the parts I just made myself or bought and saved myself $200-$350 not buying the kit.

[@davidc5735]

Really good info thanks for doing this. Glad KZbin has 1.75 playback speed 😬

[@flacohueso307]

You can skip grinding the stove bolts (machine screws) by buying truss heads at your local hardware or big box store.

[@CraftwerksMC]

I know this video is a little older now and I understand not using the foam, but using the thinner tape makes even less sense if you are just going to caulk the edges... Seems it would make more sense to assemble the bolts loosely, caulk in between the panels, and then once it is together put another bead of caulk on the inner seam and smoothing it down....

[@neilchittendon3606]

That's exactly what I did putting mine together. The thinner tape just seemed tedious, and once the caulk was applied, redundant.

[@apolloranch]

You might want to mention if it hasn't already been said. The Roof Calking you suggest using takes A WEEK to dry before you can paint it. Maybe that's why you never painted yours in the video. My bad for not checking the tube but 24 hours later it's still wet and messy as hell. I don't really understand the reason behind the roof cement over a good quality paintable silicon. Now I have to set everything aside for a week before I can continue with the build.

[@carlosmurphy4u1]

I used the calk that came in the kit, works just fine, dry's quick.

[@marvin5620]

Take a drink every time he says "with that being said", LOL. Great video but I got information overload about 5 minutes into it. I guess too much information is better than none at all.

[@stoveboltlvr3798]

That would be 18 drinks...I was bored so I counted. Still an informative video!

[@prusikknot]

I appreciate you taking time to describe the details how to modify the instructions for assembly and improve the function of this kit but SERIOUSLY... 28 minutes before you even have the first pieces put together!!! Is there somewhere to find some modified instructions or some time parks to speed this up?!?!?! After the 17th time explaining putting tape on the flanges, I think I was ready to move on to the next step.

[@carlosmurphy4u1]

I sealed all my seams from the inside but for the hopper to the bottom of the cabinet, I used the silicone calk. For mounting the window frame I used nut-certs / riv-nuts (got the kit from H.F.) 8x32 and for the legs I used 1/4x20, you'll be glad you did cuz all them nuts and washers are a real pain!

[@JeffKreska]

looks like your vacuum attachment would be more secure if you put the big cap on from the inside of the blast box, that way the weight of the hose would help keep it in place instead of pulling it loose.

[@linzenmeyer]

Jesus, this thing has more nuts than Chip N Dales Try-outs

[@jefflowrythor]

Just wanted you to know Mike told me to watch your videos before getting his product. So I did just that. Anyway I am almost finished with assembly and installation of Tacomas blast gun, I got his latest metering upgrade. I don't know if it's improved or not but the foot pedal is supposed to be improved over the last which I think you have. Thanks for all the videos I did find them helpful.

[@msexcel]

Thanks for posting this. I just picked up the benchtop and am having some issues with set up. The instructions that come with it are lacking. This helped! Hopefully I can figure this out and get back to etching glass.

[@damianbutterworth2434]

Sorry for 2 comments lol. I`m going to use my fire ash vacuum cleaner. Thanks for the tips. Going to look in the workshop for an air gun. Just fitted an air regulator and working at 80 psi.

[@damianbutterworth2434]

Yes the large hole is the extraction. I`ve got the instructions that say the small hole is the extraction. Must be a mistake. The shield over the large hole is for stopping good particles going up and out. Just checked and they have sealed the top on the extraction tube on mine.

[@paulmonte7642]

Thanks for taking the time to make this video. Well done !

[@jamesmyers2087]

I also liked the idea of smoothing down the screw heads on my cabinet. I just installed them first and grinded the heads after they were tight.

[@ramseyts]

Thanks for taking the time to do this!

[@AMetalWorks]

Not a problem at all.

[@buzzsawncgo2751]

I initially had two questions regarding the "trap door" but you obviously already answered one when you simply opened the trap to tighten the screws. The other is about the mod of the hinge for the trap door. It appears that the door can be removed by simply taking out the bolt that serves as the pivot of the hinge. Would it not be easier to simply remove the bolt and either continue the roll of the metal that holds the bolt in place with a few taps of a hammer or alternatively just squeeze it a bit in a vise to decrease the distance from the floor of the door face to the radius of the bolt tube? Great video either way. Thanks BTW, you held out way longer than I could have before strapping on the knee pads.

[@AMetalWorks]

+buzzsaw ncgo Basically do whatever is easiest for you on the hinge. The goal is to just get it to seal better. And trust me those knee pads are a life saver. I bought them for work and even with them I end out in pain after a whole days crammed up in an engine compartment in a boat.

[@PEDDALIT]

Could use thicker rubber.

[@jerryfallin1753]

Instead of bending the hinge, Why not just install a thicker gasket in the trap door?

[@chiparooo]

Great video. Very comprehensive. Thanks for sharing!

[@neatpleats11]

I am building this while I am watching your video. It is a great help

[@whereru43]

Thank you so much for this fantastic video. You said it is long but you provide outstanding step by step! I even talked to Mike today and he is sending me a price sheet and soon my upgrades will be shipped! I am moving forward with the install per your video here! Can’t wait!!! Thanks again.

[@coherent3237]

Thanks for taking the time to do these. It's obvious you were determined to do the upgrade and mods the right way. But, please, please shorten and be more brief with your vids... It took longer to watch them than it did to assemble mine!. As others have already noted.. the Locktite PL takes days to set up. Don't expect to load it with abrasive and use it in a day or two. Heat really doesn't help it cure either. Plan or 3-4 days at least to set up. A week if you want to paint it.

[@sparkycar16]

Install nutserts in top of cabinet so you can use screws instead of bolts.

[@TheMombieZombie]

The cabinet I just bought had the foam for the glass attached to the inside of the panel.

[@RizziceFilms]

Sorry if I missed it, but why did you reverse the directions of the screws? And why was grinding them down necessary? Should I still reverse them if I don't have a grinder? Thank you for the video. I've just started watching this series in preparation of the cabinet I'm buying from HF this week.

[@ImTHATguy...]

Well, the picture in the instructions shows the lower support shelf deal installed with the lip up. I thought about that for a bit and decided that I would keep the lip up, that way if sand falls through anything that I didn't caulk very well then I could just vacuum it off the shelf instead of it all falling onto my floor. I don't know, maybe I'll flip it over after using it a few times. Lol

[@DedicatedtoChange]

so after watching vid 1 & 2 i took my cabinet back to trade it for one with all the parts. got the second one home and the same thing. no double sided tape only 14 bolts for the hopper instead of 22 and the packaging is nothing like the amazing packing you have. the legs where stacked on each other. the glove brace was just in there. the parts boz is way smaller and the nicely package bolt container you have beats my tiny zip lock bags staple to cardboard. now i have to buy extra bolts and cut the hopper bolts down because they are 1 1/2 inches long. not looking good. but love the video.

[@carlosmurphy4u1]

No tape in mine either, made another trip to the hardware store.

[@darren_clark]

Thanks for the video, much appreciated. How is it holding up 4.5 years later?

[@geraldwilcox2427]

You could use saw horses and 2x4's if you have them.

[@hobbyistmaster8391]

wow 3 hours on the phone about it, I think if i was that worried I would just buy a top end one and save all the time.

[@beulahmcgraw5213]

I know this is old but I'm watching it now because I just bought a harbor freight cabinet. I need the step by step, so thank you. I have not opened the box yet but was wondering what kind of double sided tape to get. I don't see anyone saying where the media is coming from and how it gets to the gun. I want a dust collector instead of my vacuum but what else do I need? Do you use a pressure valve to control that? Like maintaining 40psi ?

[@timmyreconski5407]

Great video. Glad I found this. Your solo work reminds me of myself. Thanks.

[@WM-xd8zc]

THANK YOU for saving me hours for frustration!!!!

[@q......]

The part about different cabinets changing out media etc being expensive... If you are doing this as a "job" or very long project. It could actually be cheaper in time investment to have multiple cabinets setup and only keep a certain type of media in that specific cabinet. Setting it up so the media is reusable as much as possible can be tricky to dial in. If it's a job then it will pay for itself in time saved pretty quickly. If it's a project, you can just sell all of them, or a few of them once it's done and recoup a good portion of the money invested in it. The only reason not to have multiple cabinets, or multiple setups tailored to specific blast media is floor/shelf space. The money factor is based on how much you value your time. If you value your time at say $20 an hour, it would take 10 hours time saved over the life of the project/job to pay for a new basic cabinet. If you value your time at say $50 an hour then just 4 hours saved time. Changing out media doesn't take a really long time but dialing it in properly, the right air pressures at the inlet/outlet for the type of media can be more difficult for some people. Not to mention losses in media via cross contamination, etc can eat into it as well. You can also weight it by factoring in how much you like/dislike changing/setting up different media. A professional shop that does this day in day out, and has the floor space for it should never have to change media.

[@campbecw]

Most of us that buy this kinda cabinet 1 don’t have that kind of money and don’t have that kind of space.

[@jujuroutines1887]

Estava tentando montar um esta semana, vc me ajudou muito obrigado

[@1970chevelle396]

This has to be the longest video I've ever watched.

[@AMetalWorks]

+1970chevelle396 Unreal huh lmao. I tried really hard to cut it down too. You don't even want to know how long it was before the edits. It took around 8 hours for youtube to process the video!

[@AMetalWorks]

+Alvarez Metal Works So did you learn anything?

[@1970chevelle396]

Mine all the seams have caulking on them like you did. The problem I had with mine was the cheap media I bought didn't last very long. When that happens theres so much dust you cant see anything.

[@AMetalWorks]

Did you buy better media? Just in case you didn't know. High PSI in a blast cabinet destroys the blast media. Especially if you are using a glass abrasive. It turns it to dust and can clog up the vacuum system.

[@1970chevelle396]

After that I bought the most expensive media. It has a long life and low dust. Its better than glass media. It was like $60 for 25 pounds. The cheap stuff was like $35

[@jasonmacza2727]

I found this very helpful thanks man! great work posting this.

[@captnmack747]

Glad I found the playback speed option!

[@benking9728]

mack McCurry thanks for leaving this comment. I had no idea there was a playback speed option. I was thinking “this needs to be like an audio book where i can speed this mother up a little”. Got it man. Much better.

[@thedailyvariety4407]

IMO, to install all of those screws backwards is not necessary. How much media are they really going to hold? Half of a gram?

[@fernandoratag]

32:10 you can always open the trap door and insert the bolts😎

[@linzenmeyer]

31:30

[@thor2015]

33:11

[@thomastourville1674]

Install egg corn nuts on all bolts facing out for protection.

[@nickmkkay]

You should add a link to the tacoma upgrade video in the description

[@Rick-O-Shay60]

I'm about to buy one of these blast cabinets from HF. I watched your complete series on the upgrades made possible from the Tacoma Co. So I click on the Amazon link provided to start ordering some of the upgrade parts and, the link no longer works. I tried searching for Tacoma Co. parts and the only products listed from them is the media, Do they no longer sell on Amazon? Where else can I purchase? Thanks for putting out this series of videos Rafael.

[@danielhemric1754]

Don't see that you sealed the upper cabinet. Only removed the foam and applied the 2 sided tape. Is sealing not necessary?

[@th3frogman]

Thank you for the video. I appreciate you.

[@AMetalWorks]

welcome

[@rachaellewis8624]

What paint do you recommend to apply over the Sealant? Thanks!

[@korydikken2265]

Put it all together, took half of my life. Got to the screen portion and had to take it all apart and start over. Seriously thinking about throwing it in the garbage 🤬🤬🤬

[@funkinflugen]

Thanks for all the effort in producing this video, I know it's easy for some to be a critic and cut you down for production value, camera work or audio..."THAT BEING SAID" (sorry man, just having a little fun with you)...I have a question about the double-sided tape, did you peel BOTH sides of the tape (securing the adjoining sides) or did you leave the protection strip on one side so the two pieces would float/slide easier for hole alignment and also act as a very thin gasket?

[@AMetalWorks]

I peeled both sides.

[@carlosmurphy4u1]

I'm doing a modification on the inlet vent when I discovered that the silicone I used that came with the blast cabinet DRIES HARD AS A ROCK, dose not stay flexible, this is not good!

[@barackobama367]

homie. yo shop needs a coat of paint BADLY! looks like a fire happened in there

[@AMetalWorks]

Barack Obama just the way I like it ;)

[@jonj6156]

Assembling my cabinet now. Maybe I missed it, but I didn’t see you seal the cabinet portion with seam sealer. Should I be doing that?

[@neilchittendon3606]

Yes.

[@MadDroneItl]

hey bud great video! what was your total investment after all the upgraded parts?

[@phildavis4273]

Hi Rafael, I just picked up my cabinet and am starting the assembly. Mike at Tacoma is out this week. I was wondering when you put the bottom(funnel) on the upper cabinet you used the foam tape. Wouldn't that also "pillow" like the bottom? wondering why we wouldn't want to use caulking there as well?? I was going to ask Mike but since he is out i thought i would ask you. Also no caulking on the upper pieces either?

[@AMetalWorks]

There is going to be significant gaps due to the way the panels are put together. The tape helps seal those gaps. Calk would more than likely be fine too. That extra flange also helps with pillowing.

[@AMetalWorks]

Plus the clean up will suck. You need to make sure the hopper is perfectly centered. That will require some on the fly adjustments that will smear around calk and make a mess.

[@phildavis4273]

Thanks, I just see so many guys talking about leaks i want to make sure i prevent that! good grief bending that trap door was a pain in the neck.

[@thedailyvariety4407]

Why not put double sided tape on the support ring that goes around the hopper @39:54

[@thedailyvariety4407]

First r those is who are watching this, THIS IS OVERKILL. Will it operate at its most efficiency doing all of these steps...yes, but to grind the screw heads down, reverse the screw heads, paint the caulk...not necessary. Don’t waste the time doing it

[@ronvanbriggle6567]

But this being said:😝 I like your video. Lol

[@marvin5620]

Can you give me the size of the rubber plumbing adapter and possibly the part number? If you don't remember just give me the inside dimensions of it. Thanks

[@texascopter7997]

Good vids- here's question- when you modded back vent smaller for vacuum , and added baffle to side, it appears all that was accomplished was moving the exhaust location from side to back

[@AMetalWorks]

correct but there is a reason for that explained in the videos.

[@texascopter7997]

Alvarez Metal Works yea where at specifically ? I've watched 78 hrs of video here .. neg pressure etc.. so tell me what your referring to and I won't make fun of your moccasins :-)

[@AMetalWorks]

Texas kptr most people are right handed and point the gun slightly to the left when using it. if you point it dirrectly at the vacuum port your media will quickly end out in the vacuum itself.

[@texascopter7997]

Alvarez Metal Works true -- I'm one of the oddballs (lefty) But yea we appreciate the vids keep up the awesome work

[@AMetalWorks]

Texas kptr and again the larger hole should always be used for the vacuum to build up negative pressure.

[@lionsdejudah]

I’m over here explaining to you to just find the center before drilling, and I realized half way through that you can’t hear me... face/palm.

[@Gunnl]

You cannot seem to find this kit anywhere ...

[@ittalvibes]

used that calk he suggested and it sucks. It just peals right off 24 hours later... 80degrees and sunny out today. Seems like that would be a bad silicone to apply since it will probably fall off pretty quick from the abrasive. Easy to remove I guess..

[@ittalvibes]

now that I'm looking at least a few people have issues with that calking. directions say 1 week to cure...lol..wtf

[@AMetalWorks]

Ital Vibes Glass I've only used it this one time. It's held up in my cabinet. I used different calk in the one I built at work. I used sikaflex. That is actually pealing off... So not sure what else to say. I don't have enough experience to say much more than that. It's what he recommended so that's what I used. It worked for me...

[@AMetalWorks]

Ital Vibes Glass It's really not that big of an issue. If you want to use something different go right ahead. He has his reasons for recommending it. But in the end it's just a recommendation...

[@ittalvibes]

You should have probably have said to wait a week for it to dry before continuing since thats what you should do with that particular calk. I wish I would have known before I used it

[@genecundel4793]

Give Alvarez a break IVG. He's given a crazy amount of his time and experience simply to show other people how he has, IMO, greatly improved the HF Blast Cabinet. All for free, no less. Decide yourself whether to use it. Thank you Alverez. You would hurt a lot of your subs if you let him discourage you. Please keep posting.

[@harwoods11]

will this cabinet be able to do soda blasting or just grit?

[@MissCrazyMind101]

My instructions didn’t come with wiring for the switch. Blue and red and blue and brown. What terminal do I plug in?

[@1jrlord17]

Where did you get the foam rubber strips you used on the seems & what size works well? Your videos are well informative. Thanks.

[@AMetalWorks]

All of that tape that you seen me use in this video came with the cabinet. I did buy more for the window though. i have another video about that upgrade. That tape i got from Amazon. It's 3/4" wide x 1/8" thick. Here is the link. www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00YQAHH9C/ref=as_li_ss_tl?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o01_s00&linkCode=sl1&tag=alvmetwor-20&linkId=f241af74b05c71220f7b43aea8c6dd1b

[@1jrlord17]

+Alvarez Metal Works Thanks for the link. I ordered a roll. Your videos provide good information.

[@AMetalWorks]

+James Lord thank you for the support.

[@evracer]

Just seal between the flanges and then the seam with caulk....abandon the foam tape completely.

[@fredcdobbs823]

A lot of time & labor for a mis-engineered budget tool including 22 bolts you need to grind down seems more project than ever projected

[@หม่องเนเมียว]

Where can I buy the vending machine kit?

[@mikezimmerman5817]

Hi Rafael. Thank you very much for the great step by step vids on "the build". I'm doing one right now and just ordered my kit and other upgrades from Mike at Tacoma Company. One quick question - should I use the double stick tape on the hopper as you did in the video or can I use a tube of silicone? I've heard of people using either but in my case I can't find the double stick tape locally.

[@AMetalWorks]

Mike Zimmerman double stick is better. If you ever need to break it down it will come appart much easier.

[@scottevans2433]

I watch another video, where a guy said poly uro is better. Silicone can get on a surface when you are blasting and embed in the metal.

[@JoeyGarcia]

I tend to break or strip these HF bolts. Would it be a good idea to replace them with better hardware? I just got done putting a HF welding cart together and I think I stripped a couple of bolts, but I locktite red them for good measure.

[@AMetalWorks]

Joey Garcia The bolts are fine. don't waste your money.

[@JoeyGarcia]

Thanks! Yeah, I'll just be careful and not over tighten them. I just bought the HF cabinet for less than 150 bucks with coupons. I need to put it together now. Maybe I'll start tomorrow. What makes one silicone/caulk better than another? Like why specifically the type that you used? Thanks again!

[@AMetalWorks]

Joey Garcia that stuff holds up really well to the blast environment plus it's paintable. I tried sikaflex on my latest caninet build at my day job and it didn't hold up. I'm a big fan of sikaflex. It's pretty durable stuff but started coming up right away. Play it safe and get the what I used in the video. Mike recommend it and it has held up great in my personal cabinet.

[@codystevens1233]

Ok, so I have watched the hole series and besides being a little long winded they are a great plethora of info on these cabinets. I have watched all of your videos as well as a few others and taken the best of all of them and constructed my cabinet but I just have to leave this comment for future people watching and assembling their cabinets according to this video. I would highly suggest NOT trying to glue the backer ring to the lip of the hopper. I understand how it might add just a little more support if it glues down perfectly but these cabinets are manufactured in china and the rings are not always as square as the hopper and the holes wont line up nor will the ring stay laid in place until the glue dries without popping out of place 50x. I spent an hour on my hands and knees with a handful of terry cloth towels cleaning the roofing mastic off of the hopper and ring and i can honestly say it is one step i wish i had skipped from the get go. Also I only needed one tube of mastic to seal the ENTIRE cabinet( I bought two, overthinking things) even with the mess on the hopper and ring. Be sparing with the mastic and if you want to make some really nice seams put blue painters tape about 3/8-1/2 inch away from all corners on each side inside the hopper and cabinet and pull it off while its still wet after you have smeared the mastic in the corners with your finger(WEAR NITRILE GLOVES, this stuff is a nightmare to get off skin and clothes). Dont forget to seal all of the corners in the upper part of the cabinet. Also dont forget to get like the 3M double stick tape for the seems of the upper part of the cabinet. he only breafly talks about it for a few seconds and I removed the foam but didnt realize i was supposed to replace it and assembled my cabinet without it. hopefully the mastic i put in the corners will be enough...

[@molivroman9806]

thanks Cody. Yesterday at the end of the day assembling the hopper, He said make sure the holes line up on the ring. No way, I do not know how his lined up. There are too many variables in the construction of the hopper for alignment. Like I said, I was tired and tried to match up. I started to just seal the ring and throw it on there and later use a step up drill and open the holes but I shut down and slept on it. So glad to read your post. I think it maybe the only one on here with that subject. So (with that being said) I will delete the ring but I fear down the road the cabinet will probably not line up. Also, this fellow spent a lot of time doing this video, did a very good job, and deserves a pat on the back or a discount from "Mike". Not that you were negative in any way as others I have read. Cheers!!

[@raymondj8768]

HES A FKN NIGHTMARE LOL

[@AMetalWorks]

Thank you

[@joshg8458]

Good video but saying someone is wrong for flipping the shelf b/e that’s the way it’s designed, in the same video that you did multiple modifications is silly. If they want the tray and understand they have to clean it once in a while is there/our decision.

[@bjputvain]

Have weird questions what is the biggest size car rim you can fit into that cabinet?

[@AMetalWorks]

I put an H1 wheel in mine. They measure 16.5x9. I'd feel comfortable saying you could get a 17x10 wheel in there but it's tight. You might be able to get a larger wheel diameter if the width isn't as wide.

[@bjputvain]

Uvision Media thank you

[@MarkJackson-ok2qm]

chuck it up in a drill, then polish with paper

[@markman63]

What air pressure are you using?

[@kgatentumadre1312]

Hey guys hope everything is well.. I have a quick question, and I would like to know what is the recommended specs or exact air compressor for my HFT sandblasting cabinet. I'm intrested in doing powder coating as a hobby or possibly side hustle here in FL. I'll be expecting a reply, thanks!

[@firemanifd]

Question about the sealant you used. I have used the same caulking and this stuff does not seem to dry. Any idea of what I can do to help it dry faster?

[@AMetalWorks]

Jerry Konkle not sure what the issue is. It dried for me.

[@ittalvibes]

Jerry Konkle same issue here. still doesnt stick 24-hours later.. just peals right off....

[@nicolec7290]

Instructions. I never got any

[@geneva93]

Folks, he said "bolt holes" OK?! "BOLT......holes"

[@Arouth249]

I finally started building this cabinet. Is it just me or does that roofing poly smell like chocolate sauce??

[@evracer]

Jesus....just buy a thicker piece of foam for the trap door.

[@ufo-bro532]

WTF you have to assemble it yourself

[@btac6481]

God damn it. There is nothing in the instructions about tape or seal and im about finished assembling and i see tape and 3 rolls of seal in box. Wtf. Im super pissed

[@mmmaaa6912]

That being said !!!!!!!

[@nathanr.8556]

"Proper" in your opinion

[@av8or4951]

How much for the Tacoma upgrade?

[@AMetalWorks]

+av8or4951 It depends on the kit and the options. You're best bet is to call Mike and talk to him. Let him know what your needs are and go from there. I believe the base kit is prices at $275 but don't hold me to that price. Call him and get the exact numbers.

[@av8or4951]

+Alvarez Metal Works Thanks Man!. I got the same cabinet as you, still in the box until spring.

[@AMetalWorks]

Awesome. You'll be very please with the upgrades and the mods when you build yours.

[@av8or4951]

+Alvarez Metal Works still watching your video and you might want to look up the "Dust Deputy". I got one and it works great.

[@AMetalWorks]

+av8or4951 That is exactly what I have planned to buy for this. We use them at my day job and they work great. A bit pricey but they are really nice. Plus they are local here in NY.
