That rocks... a blast cabinet AND an air compressor to boot. I say return the favor to Pappy with a nice dinner out on your dime.
Well, well, well......You've really stepped up the game with your new equipment. Therefore, we FTE'ers expect that every bracket, housing, nut, bolt, and washer to have absolutely no rust and a fresh coat of paint!!!

As for parts, I have already started on some in the engine compartment... I'll get some pics later. Aluminum oxide leaves a very nice finish, and looks awesome after a prime and paint

Please accept my condolences.
There's something about tools that get passed down through the generations. My dad passed away in 03 and I got most of 'em. I mean, there's something about his spirit that lives on when I use his hammers and power equipment. In fact, I still wear his trusty tool belt.
Carry on the tradition!

It's ok. There was no way for you to have known.
Forgot to put in the first post... The compressor was a seperate investment.
