Nice setup. That was a steal. Air dryer is worth $75 alone. That thing is huge, what are you blasting lol. You can do some "heavy duty" work lol

Holy smokes that's a great deal.    Although, you'll want to get a nice deadman valve nozzle for it as that ball & socket valve will eventually just wear out.  I got mine from Northern Tool. Cheapest price I could find. Nice find.    Ted

Here is the deal , I made this from an old 60 gallon comp tank ,cut the top off , inverted it , welded the top back on . I also installed a 4 inch bung . I hate dead man valve , total crap and the fatigue the shit out of you , that is why I only use a 1/2 NPT ball valve , they cost my 3 dollars from Harbor freight . I have used only ball valves for the last 20 years and if you turn the handle quickly and the valve will last for a long time .The water sep cost 280 dollars ,64 CFM model , found it laying in my junk pile , I have friends that drop shit off from work everyday . My comp is Diesel with screw comp that kicks ass , paid a 1000 for it 10 years ago

I tested it out on 2 doors and fenders and pile of other parts , it took me 10 min . After that I blasted the blaster then Powdercoated the Sandblaster with a Powder called RUST , it is a brown and black flake , I thought it was fitting .

That is the color powdercoat I put on , it is a finish intended for outdoor lawn furniture
