If I was doing entire cars, yes, for sure. But as long as it's no bigger than an intake manifold, I am staying cheap!
If I was trying to do what you are doing, I would be all over more hardware... but that's not where most of us are.
Andy, the only thing with that is that a bench top sandblast/glass bead cabinet isn't big enough to do a manifold in. It might barely fit in but you won't be able to turn it around to get to all the surfaces. You might be able to do a valve cover but..........
The HF cabinet is on sale for $199, that's the price of a decant rechargeable drill.
I paid $210 form mine from Summit.
I wanted a bigger one but..........Gary (where I painted the 67) bought a used one with a real vacuum, etc.
