Hi, Kelly! I can't claim to understand what you're going through, but I've heard that it can be rough. I spent 16 years providing 24-hour nursing care at home for my late parents (without help, respite, a break, or more than 20 minutes of uninterrupted sleep at a time). I was dealing with Alzheimer's [dementia], cancer, and various heart, lung, and mobility problems. I think sixteen years of feeding, caring, lifting, carrying, washing, and dodging the occasional fist and flying chair drove me slightly nuts, but one thing I DID learn is that maintaining a positive mental attitude counts for a lot. Having a sense of humour helps; I'd say that you're doing exactly the right thing in following Jess and Dame on Project Brupeg. Their attitude is just bursting with positivity and good humour, and I'm reasonably sure that a laugh and a smile never did anyone any harm. So good luck - and try to keep smiling. 🙂 I wish you well!

Decommissioned LP tanks are ideal to convert for this purpose because they were designed with a safety margin well above the 200psi possible LP pressure and this application is only 110psi. It's now on half duty for the rest of it's life which could be a considerably long time at that margin. You have shown how to safely modify them. Good job. You gave it a fun paint job, so extra credit there. Mine is a "Ketchup" bottle made from a 20lb tank about the size of the one you replaced.

BTW Damien you did a great job on that sandblaster rebuild. Now you just need to figure out an efficient means of getting that sand transported from your storage bin into the sandblaster. Good luck with that, hope you figure it out without needing having to hand bomb the sand into the blaster yourself. Maybe use your winch to lift it up the sand to a higher grade then gravity feed it into your blaster. cheers have a good week guys.

I have the same sandblaster, only use it occasionally so it's not modified. I strapped a vibration motor to it with a foot pedal, as I found the garnet/glass I use (and was re-using) didn't flow down and just created a void. Shaking it kept it running great. I fed it from an old diesel powered road compressor, so had loads of air.

Really good video. Lots of creativity and thinking ahead. Only thing missing is media recovery. I assume after you blast an interior you still have sand to clean up. I know it depends upon how much you pay for media, however since you have to sweep/vacuum it up anyways it would seem like it should be cost effective to run that used mixed paint/media back through the screener. I would consider some sort of set-up wherein you only move it once. From the truck bed into a hopper of sorts, run an Archimedes-type screw to move the media into a screening section, which deposits screened sand onto a conveyor which fills a small silo. You blokes seem pretty creative, and this would cost only a moderate amount with your welding skills, and potentially free up some man-hours wherein it could be working while you're blasting. I know it always sounds easier than reality, but I think you could make it happen. Also, seems like you could dry your sand in 55g drums over a fire/heat vs having to dump it, wait, then shovel it back.

We have a big bastard three phase compressor. That’s all I know about the specs. That said we have run this off a 3hp single piston compressor but it does struggle. Two of those compressors might be good enough but they don’t last long. If it’s possible to find a big second hand unit you will be better off than smaller new units. Or big and new if the budget allows. We also have an accumulation tank which dries the air and gives us more volume in the compressed air system. I completely forgot about showing that part. I will take a quite video and send it to you via Patreon. Dame

It would be very low effort to weld a pipe coupling to the bottom of the mixer next time it's removed for ball valve replacement then weld a T-handle to the plug used to close it. Then you can quickly spin off the plug, unclog with your ramrod of choice and get back in action. Black UV-resistant "farm grade" hose is the most durable (I leave mine outdoors as sun doesn't bother it). I'll use that when my green hose wears out.

Most blaster nozzles like the one you show here has a venturi to generate a vacuum to suck the media into the water stream. Are you using the sand blaster to push the media in under pressure? Very interesting! Do you have to play with the pressure so they don't conflict? I will be trying this soon! I've mentioned this to "experts" but they say it won't work. Leave it to a Aussie to make it work anyway. Good on ya.

This nozzle is designed to create a vacuum and be used without a compressor. Adding the compressor adds so much more power than any minor effect the Venturi design has the nozzle design becomes irrelevant.
