Joe,

Looks like you are doing a nice job is the peacock photo from the Dover design book?  I was going to take the time to clean it up however there was so much wrong with it that I didnt bother.  You did a nice job with it.  The 2nd one looks nice, is that one blasted from the back or the front?  Glass is such a trip as it is damn near impossible to tell if it is glass or mirror.

What are you using for a media?

thanks all again!

I really got into to it so I could offer different services, not just vinyl but still use my cutter. And when you check out some of these glass artist like schramm and L white it is just to awesome to pass up on and not learn how to do some of it.

it is virtually dust/abrasive free the only time I get a mess is when I lift the gun up while still holding the trigger.

Yes the peacock is from dover and you can see where I had a blowout on it.

the 2nd mirror is from the front.

The media is brownish lol I bought the unit from a glass company that used it for a shower enclosure that they sold and then they stopped doing it so it just sat there. It came all set up all I had to do was hook up the air.

its real fun and if I can learn more I can do more. next, I want to blast from the back then paint or gold leaf. Then after that glue chipping that looks like big fun. then you put them all together and whoa!
