Sandblaster Plans
Make Your Own Sandblaster Exactly the way you want it With a better design & Save Money!
My newest sandblaster plans show you step by step how to make your own pressure pot blaster. Each step of the way, I provide photos for each section and a detailed explanation of what to do.
These are my own uniquely designed and configured sandblaster plans which shows how to build with widely known parts available at local hardware stores. I also show close up photos of all the parts needed and sources of where you can get them inexpensively.
Part 1: Shows Exactly How to Assemble Tank
The pressure pot sandblaster can be made out of old grill size propane tanks. I explain how to do this safely and places to get them for free. (Please be careful with this and follow my advice in the plans) Then the steps show me assembling each specific part onto the tank.
Part 2: Making My Unique Nozzle & Hose Assembly
The second part of my plans shows you how to make my unique nozzle assembly that lasts much longer than other nozzles. Its also variable so you can control the amount of abrasive blasting from your finger tips. A third benefit, its very inexpensive and very easy to make- you will be surprised. These are excellent for etching, sandcarving, and for sandblasting inside cabinet booths.
This part also shows my self tested components and where to get them online all in one place. Some of these components are in a high abrasive area so they need to be steel or iron. Most hardware stores only carry the brass ones which will wear out very quick. You can click the links to my favorite discovered sources.

Hi Eric. First I want to say, what an awesome web site you have here! My question about the plans, do they show information about building a wet blaster ” slurry blaster” ? I want to build a mobile unit similar to the one mmlj company has on their web site. Thanks again for this awsome site.
@ Troy, yeah I started building and experimenting with a home made one last Fall, but haven’t been successful yet. I wrote a post on it though which explains the mechanics of how it works, along with other commentators great ideas here: https://www.sandblasterinfo.com/dustless-sandblasting/
That is a good starting point.
Do you sell Abrasives? If you don’t can you put me in touch with those that do? Looking for Alum oxide mainly. Thanks for all your hard work and research. Mike Daniels Captain, Merchant Marines
Do the instructions for making this require any welding?
@Kathy, yes it requires welding, but it is very possible to forgo this through a combination of making your own threads for the pipes to fit in the tank along with a combination of JB Weld as a sealant. You could probably find a thread tap fairly inexpensively. Although this would mostly work fine, I have never tested the max pressure it could hold and would be best not to use too much pressure through that method. It would be best to use a safety release valve with it.
Eric, I work with certified money orders, for payments, where can send one if I may. Dean
have any plans on something similiar to the dustless blasters
need plans on something like dustless blaster d225
Hi Eric,
I wish I could buy your DIY and proven / tested sandblaster plans. May make payment for the PDF Plans through money order, say by Western Union? I do not have Mastercard/Visa/American Express/Discover/ and Paypal.
Thanks .

Hi Eric, I do have a PAB blaster system. I am in the process of wanting another pot but with only one 1/4″ gun. As a pab user there are some issues with the gun & the pot. I don’t see any metering /adjustment valves for your pot. Can you give me some more insight into yours before I commit to purchasing your plans? Thanks Kevin.
I wonder if you have looked into dustless blasting? And could you design a pressure pot that used both water and air pressure to do the work.
@Matt, you definitely could. I started making and testing one a few years ago but never got around to finish it. I provide some info in the link listed in another comment above.
Hi. I have an art studio, and I use to work in the monument design industry designing headstones, memorials, etc.. its been a long time. Now I have an art studio and have been taking orders for hand-painting pet memorials on natural river rock … round, oval, smooth stone
What I need to know is… What kind of abrasive do I need.. Will this sandblaster stand up to it? and I forget alot of this.. like I said.. has been years out of the industry.. But.. what cfm @ ? do I need. I would like to be able to offer my customers the ability to have their pets names, a saying, etc.. sandcarved/engraved to the back of the stone. I also have been approached many times about sandcarving a boulder
Please let me know! Am anxious to hear from you!
Thanks so much!!
Hello Eric
I am a fan of Dustless Blasting and just wondering if you could share some knowledge on how to built it.
I am interested in doing something a little bit different… So I have a neighbor’s pitbull that gets out occasionally and has charged at me, wanting to take a bite out of my leg… The dog has already bit my dad, as well as a couple of other neighbors…. I want to take a sand blasting gun, mount a depleted small propane tank to it, for the portable air that is refillable by tire gauge… and have the sand blasting gun be able to dispense chili powder in the dog’s direction.. Not harmful or lethal, but would discourage the dog from charging at me with intent to sink their teeth into my hide for being in my own yard… Possible? Forget about it? Lemme know.
@Joe, yes you could set something like that up but if the chilli powder sits in the tank for long periods of time, it will probably clump up and not come out. I would just get one of these keychain pepperspray things https://amzn.to/43emHYk
Much cheaper and can carry it around. Sometimes you can find them for a few dollars
