sandblasting

[tree]

rite. got my sandblaster through finally. hooke dit up to dads compressor got it up to a healthy 5.5 bar around 80 PSI. Plenty of pressure there but the sand just insnt coming out at that pressure. its loosing a lot somewhere and i dont have a clue how to fix it. If you take the nozzle of u cna still feel decent pressure but when the nozzles off theres no vacuum to pickup the snad. Whebn the nozzle is back on the sand will come out but at a pathetic speed.
help people!

buy a new nozzle?

check that the pick up pipe for the sand isnt blocked, and if you can, rest it on the sand rather than submerging it,

also try blocking the nozzle off with your hand and pulling the trigger, all the air pressure should go down the pick up tube unblocking anything in the way,

cheers for the advice.
