Ok Joe here goes, the hose is the standard one that came with the wand. I think it is 50' looks to be 1/2" outside diameter. The pipe at the bottom is a 3/8" pipe nipple that is 4 or 5" long. The size or length really isn't that important as long as your tube will go over the end and you leave...
Ok I have a few more pics of my setup for those of you who asked. The pic of the tube on the bottom is just a piece of pipe with a hole drilled in the top. The hole is between the plastic tubing and the elbow and acts like a siphon that you see on a large blasting cabinet. If you have any other...
Anyone in the Columbus(Lockbourne) OH area coming to the GA rally or anywhere near S.C.? I have a pallet at Lockbourne that I need picked up. If not no big deal just thought I would ask before trying to make other arrangements. FYI, they list the pallet at around 300lbs. It's all cardboard boxes...
Go back to page 4 of this post, number 33 I think and you can see some pics of the tank setup. I'll get some closeups of the pickup tube at the bottom of the tank and post them later today.
Like BLKBRD said you do need at least a face shield. I forgot to mention that in my earlier post. I use a...
You don't really have to worry about breathing any dust when you use one of these. The water pretty much takes care of that. As for reusing the sand it just depends on where you are gonna do your blasting. If you are lucky eough to own or have access to a large concrete or asphalt pad you could...
Anyone out ther have any burner racks and the grease catcher for an MKT? I need a couple of burner racks and a grease cather for my MKT. I am looking at having some made but I thought I'd do a quick check with the membership.
OK really these are the last one's!!! I didn't get to open her up and really really go thru it as well as I would have liked cause it was getting dark fast. If anyone has anything they would like to see better let me know and I'll see what I can do. Thanks for your patience!!!
A few more. I didn't crank up the top as I only found one jack inside so it was a little harder to get the stuff out. My little helpers took care of a lot of it!!!! I also had about five floor mats, and about all the MBU's a man could want. That brings up another question. Some of these have...
OK a few more. One question do any of you guys know what the stainless grate/racks are used for? Sorry for jumping around so, my head is still spinning from going thru all this stuff!! It had bunches of utensils, pots and pans and new covers galore. Some were labeled some weren't. It looks like...
OK guys here are a few more pics from the big unveiling yesterday afternoon. I have a few questions about what some of this stuff is. I also thought I took a lot more pics than this but these were all that were on the mem card!! I'll take more later. Enough talk on with the pics.....
I forgot to mention that I would like to give a huge thanks to Mike (SCSG-G4) for all his expertise and help. Above and beyond Mike, above and beyond!!
Well I went to get the MKT today at lunch. Woulda been maybe 15 minutes if it wasn't for that tire I mentioned in an earlier post!! All in all not too bad just a little time consuming and HOT!!! By the way thanks to all who replied in that earlier thread. I made a hose with a clip on air chuck...
Well I would have to agree with you. I must admit to an advanced case of packratitus, but I have an alterior motive working here. Since I just sorta, kinda, oh by the way bought an MKT trailer and the wife is really into the craft type stuff...... Are you following me?
Yeah it does have some loose lugnuts. The ring was the most pressing problem. I thought I had read that inflating and deflating were both relatively hazardous operations so I just thought it may be best to chain it before attempting to remove the tire. My plan as of now is to raise that side...
Guys, I would like some suggestions or other opinions on the tire in the attached photo. It's on a trailer I am looking to pick up tomorrow. I won't be pulling it over about 15 or 20 miles. Well that's on the pull home, the pickup location is only a couple of miles from my work. It would be...
You may not be able to tell from the pics but it is a small well tank that I used. Most any tank or drum would work. Just have to mount a fitting in the bottom for the sand to come out of. That one works well because of the sloped bottom, you don't have to worry about getting all the sand out...
