Guys, what are your opinions on something like this?

If I'm doing only small items like chassis, would something like that work well?

I can't comment on that gun but if you do go for one, know there is almost always a 20% off coupon somewhere for harbor freight :mrgreen:

For that chassis it might work ok but wouldn't want to try that out with a gold pan. Takes quite awhile to get one of those clean and you'll go thru alot of refilling that little tank. Plus you would need heavy rubber gloves and some kind of blasting hood to work with that gun. By the time you get that going and all the media you'll lose due to no containment you'd be better off having someone else do it for you or investing in a small media cabinet like this one. Its got a small enuf footprint that you won't have to worry about storing it when not in use but big enuf for your chassis pieces. I picked up this one and it works ok but its good for doing bigger items but also takes up quite a bit of space in the garage. But then again I haven't been able to put a vehicle in my garage for at least 5 years now so it doesn't really bother me at this point in time :wink: .
