that your nose gets blocked up when using the blasting cabinet for an hour.
I didn't realise there was quite so much aluminium oxide powder getting out.
Must get some new stickybacked neoprene sealing stuff.........

Can you hold your breath that long?

I think it may be too late to worry - but I can't remember if I've got it or not.

I was having problems with my shot blaster. The air was going in quicker than it could get out and pressurising the box forcing out dust.

I fastened a plate with a short spigot on it to the side and fitted the hose from my vacuum to the spigot.

Keeps the inside of the blaster clear and creates a negative pressure in the blaster stopping the dust coming out.

Had similar with mine and it's usually as the internal filter starts to get bunged up.
