You don't need an expensive cabinet to reclaim your blasting material. I've been using a 30-gal tub I picked up new for less than $10, and have an old window pane that I position depending on the piece I'm working on. I've done everything but the frame in that tub and usually recover about 2/3 of my sand. I just finished up my wheels this weekend. They were a bit awkward to work around in the tub, but it got the job done. I've gone through about 200# of sand so far, including what was lost on the ground while touching up the frame, and most of that got re-used several times before it broke down into dust.

She's a beautiful mess, and I've made her all mine
