Couldn't be more satisfied May 16, 2011

Delivery on this item was incredibly fast. Order placed on Thursday and my package arrived Saturday via FedEx.
Sandblaster tool is very well crafted. Light enough to control easily but heavy enough to not feel cheap. Plenty of control and modulation with a nice comfortable feel.
Comes with abrasive grit which works great for my glass etching needs. For larger areas you'll probably want something with a wider swath but i'm working with small areas which are masked off by vinyl stickers. Pinpoint precision at close rage with a max affective range of about 3" for a swath about 1/4" (at 65psi). You can get heavier grit for more aggressive blasting but the grit that came in the kit works just fine.
I ended up being very surprised with how well this little blaster kit works. "Virtually" plug and play.
I would give this a 5-star review however the kit does not offer any easy option (adapter) to connect to standard 1/4" NPT fittings (common air compressor fittings). I ended up searching my local hardware stores for an adapter for the end of the supplied hose and found nothing. Ended up cutting one end of the hose and using a 1/4" NPT to 1/8" barbed brass fitting with small zip ties to clamp the hose on. Not a big deal once everything was said and done but it would be nice of the supplier could offer or even recommend an adapter for the hose. Not a big fan of having to modify something right out of the box to get it to work but the tool works great so not a big loss.
Small air compressors are available to connect right to the supplied hose but if you're like any normal Joe with a basic garage you'll end up using your garage air compressor.
I recommend you get a brass 1/4 to 1/8 barbed fitting, a secondary regulator (40-65psi operating range 65psi max), and inline moisture trap. All that can be had for under 20$ but necessary for long-term use of this sand blaster.
Summary:
Great product, just not exactly plug and play. Highly recommended for small hobby tasks.
