    I have one of them they're good, just have to dry the metal off quick so it doesn't rust
    I get my dried sand from Bunning's 20kg bag for $8, light blue/dark blue bag
    https://www.bunnings.com.au/drypak-20kg-dried-sand_p0760230
    Get a big cheap tarp, lay it out and use a post on each corner to keep it off the ground, all the sand/water will collect in the middle and leave it to dry out, then sift and reuse it
    With the pickup for the sand i made a gravity set up, help's it flow better.
    I just used a 2 Litre bottle and pushed the hose into the bottom then hang it from the clothes line or where ever

    Hey mate... do you have more info about this setup somewhere? Maybe not in this thread through. I have a scorpion washer I'd love to rig up as a sand/water blaster if i can but I'd like to know how you do it.

    Full service history?! From 1987?! That's impressive. And it's negotiable. If I had the money... well, if I did have any money I would have spent it all by now.

    I'm buying an electric bike, it just lacks the charger, and the electric motor. And the batteries are probably shot (I think they have to remain on a charger when not in use, a week off the charger damages them). I'm turning into a cocaine addict sniffing chalf dust in hope...
