Having been employed as a mr macGyver & done some machining myself , I lover you ingenuity. Great vid & great looking product .
Superb machining. Really impressive.
Thanks!
Now that is very slick. Nice design. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks!
Exceptional--both the project and the video. Subscribed and looking forward to seeing more of your work.
Thanks!
I got 6 new ideas while I watched this. Great video man. Super nice finished store ready tool. Wish I could make my homemade functional stuff look this nice even if my stuff may or may not outperform what's out there. Wish I new someone with your skillset.... Amazing
I live in Karachi Pakistan I like your comments send 4 month ago
I'm impressed. Well done sir!
Thanks
Nice work. Looks great!!
I love the windshield wiper
Thanks
What no thumbs down, that's pretty amazing for you tube . Nice work.
Thanks!
Very professional! And inspiring.... thanks.
Thank you!
Nice job. Anodising looks the business!
Thanks!
Really enjoyed this video, a fine work of art and machining.
Music made it really pop. Looking forward to the next one!
Thank you once again!
Great job. Alot of labor, but fun when it all comes together. 👍
Thanks! It's a lot of work, half of which is in editing, believe it or not.
YOUR BLASTER NOZZLE IS A WORK OF ART! AND I WOULD LOVE TO BUY ONE THANKS FOR THE VIDEO
Thank you. I don't sell this design, but I do sell the one from my latest video.
Is that a vette in your avatar or an opel gt? I used to have a red opel.
@@ArnoldsDesign BANKS TWIN TURBO CORVETTE
Oh, cool. Gale Banks has been in that game a long time. I bet it runs awesome.

Thanks for a great video. Plz do a test with both your previosly made nozzle and the standard harbour freight that vapor honing technologies uses.
Awesome so that’s anodising. Wow amazing
Thanks. It's actually one of the simpler electro coating processes.
Wow that anodized part by it's self looks amazing! could you make a little guide on what you need and how to anodize as well as what each part of the process does to the part and why?
Thanks! A guide or video is in the works.
I thought that was a product review at first just because that part looked so good!
Michael Cool. The music makes it sound like a promotional too.
In this video I show you how I anodize. ua-cam.com/video/Be8jZUZym3A/v-deo.html It doesn't show what each part of the process does exactly or why, but it gives some details into how I do it. The first part shows the machining. The anodizing starts at 6:50 with calculating the surface area.
top notch quality
Thanks!
Perfect work man !! 😎 can u plz attach detail drawing plz
Just perfect!
Thank you!

very nice 👌 👍
Thank you!
Nice
Love your work mate i am building a new gun that adds water pressure by pluming in a Pressure washer to boost the pressure and hopefully taking the load off the air circuit / compressor run time and hopefully speed up the cleaning process.... what do you think? I kind of thought about trailing it after using the sand blasting attachments on a Gas powered Pressure washer cleaning car bodys..... has to be worth a look?
I know how to boost water pressure... super easy way... cheap too... check it out... Not kidding. 😁
Perfect
Thanks!
Very nice design, I'm curious as to how wear resistant the air nozzle (you'll have to think of a name for it) will be.
You could skip the tempering on that part if problematic. Good job.
Thanks! For the media I use it with, it should last a long time. I could probably skip the tempering. My old nozzle is made from the same material. It has held up well so far.
@@ArnoldsDesign what is type your material in this video?
@@Bg_Anipar Aluminum and stainless steel. Nozzle is D2
genius
Is it much better now?
Do you sell them too?
What is the price?
so is this for sale yet? video has been out over a year now
Você utiliza areia e agua?
How do you know it will work well before building it is there a formula for venturi any tips
Excellent craftsmanship! Do you think it will cut time in half?
Thanks!
I hope it does. It came close in the first test, but I hadn't adjusted my pressures and slurry concentrations for the new flow at that point, so we'll see.
Hi Brad! Awesome work! I just bought your plans but can you tell me what ID of air and slurry is on this one? Cheers
Thanks. The air is 3/8 and the slurry is 3/4. I don't sell this model of gun, but I do have another model which is popular. It looks similar, but the nozzle is 1/2 maximum.
It looks like when you're testing the new one it doesn't have enough pressure for a correct blasting? Maybe the system (compressor/pump) doesn't send enough pressure? At least watching the comparison I felt like that... Anyway, that's a beautiful project
Thanks! I run low pressure all the time for finishing work.
Is it possible to build a DIY Vapor blast cabinet out of a typical blast cabinet? If so, What parts do you need for a Vapor Blast cabinet?
I'm working on a manual.
ua-cam.com/video/rjDGLPJ_sVY/v-deo.html
Will this remove machining marks?
Hi there do you sell them at all? I'm in Australia and would definitely buy one straight away. I have a very large 3 phase 10hp aircompressor at 100psi so air isn't a problem would love a nice gun for my wet blast cabinet let me know thanks!
I do sell guns, but not this model due to its machining complexity. I have a couple other models you might be interested in though. They are not quite as high volume as this one. The biggest nozzle ID I carry now is 12.7mm. Contact me at b.arnold@arnoldsdesign.com if you would like to see these other guns.
@@ArnoldsDesign no worries thanks and will do it now.
Can I borrow your lathe and mill....and you to help me make one?/this is awesome. I’m in sunny southern CA......Disneyland is 5 min away!!
is there a partricular reason you chose to have the slurry in/out as two pieces, instead of one piece with a hole drilled through it for the air input to stick into? if it were one piece you wouldn't need the set screws and the air input would hold it in place
I made the inlet from stainless, and the nozzle from tool steel. The heat treatable steel for the nozzle is much more expensive than the stainless, and also I didn't want the slurry inlet to rust. Good idea though to make one piece if possible.
@@ArnoldsDesign martensitic stainless steels can be heat treated, one of those will likely provide the durability and corrosion resistance you need
@@SuperAWaC Like a 400 series? I could try that. I'm not sure what hardness I can go to. I'm using D2 for the nozzle now which has a higher chrome content, and gives it at least a little corrosion resistance. I can get it in the up about 60Rc which which works well for glass bead slurry. When I machine another one for use with sharp abrasive, I will more than likely switch to a boron carbide nozzle.
@@ArnoldsDesign well the clever way to design the nozzle would be to have it so that the slurry never really touches it to begin with, but you'd need to get clever with bypass air, like how jet engines use a boundary layer of "low temperature" air between the exhaust gas and metal, but that would probably be a bit more engineering than is appropriate for this application... it may very well be cheaper to just treat the nozzle as a consumable and make it from the cheapest hardest tool steel possible. 60rc seems like about as good as you're going to get unless you have access to higher end ovens
do you sell the drawing of this gun?
Are you going to sell these mate
Can i buy this vb nozzle from you ?
I wan to buy? To sale this gun man?
We want to buy from you???
Nice... can I order?
Thanks. I don't produce these kind right now.
do you sell these ?
I don't. I have a new design though that I plan to sell. I will be showing it in a future video.
Do you sell this nozzle
No, but I sell the silver gun. It doesn't have as big a nozzle.
Are you selling these nozzles?
Thanks for asking. I'm not selling them. They take me too long to machine.
I noticed no o rings
No, not really necessary.
I just spent 20 grand on a wet blast cabinet and the gun is worth 100 bucks maybe. Anybody that can use a 5/16 nut driver on a hose clamp can upgrade the gun. PS the pump is way over powered for the 10 mm tip it came with. This gun would actually utilize that pump HP and air. If you don't sell them someone will steal your idea just saying.
20k. Ouch. This nozzle design is probably already stolen. They don't call them research and steal departments for nothing. But I agree about the tip size. I have another design that works better than this one. The pump I use has a 2" outlet, so you could almost use a fire hose nozzle with it.
@@ArnoldsDesign If its blue we have the same pump and it could run 2 guns if you had the cfm to blow it. High volume low pressure is what I have found best for finishing work. You obviously figured that out and have the gun to prove it. I just wasted 3 hrs looking at cheap dry blast guns adapted to wet blast. These wet blast systems work and you have the gun upgrade for them. Test subject right here send a full legal release for me and a prototype I'm in.
@@mikeg2765 Sounds like the same pump. I didn't know the really expensive machines were running them. In my latest vid, it shows me machining a gun that looks like a dry gun, but works as a wet gun also. There's no adaptation necessary and made of corrosion resistant materials. The air and slurry inlets aren't parallel, but that doesn't bother me. The gun I made in that vid was an order for a customer with a vapor blasting shop in Australia. He's really happy with it. It has a 1/2" nozzle ID. He was running 1/4", so it was a big change for him. The design in this vid is too involved to machine the internal jet and make it affordable, so I'm probably not going into production with this design. I have another similar prototype I'm working on though which is simpler and as effective. I can let you know about it when I'm finished it if you're interested in trying it. Were looking to try a 1" nozzle ID?
@@ArnoldsDesign I work for Boeing in Renton WA. I think our new 280m Machine Shop might be able to help. Calc for machine time in a 5 axis is 63 seconds for your part. Where did you think I got 20k for a wet blaster lol. Hey its stainless and sexy as hell but it could be much better. We have 2 IT guys for all the machines I'm sure they can make any software work you have. They have a floppy disc setup from our very old CNC machines. We just machined parts for a 727 wheel truck assy on the new machines from a floppy, we can make that gun. And make some Boron .50 ,.75 and 1.0 tips for it. We have some coatings that would work well for the gun body. Get with you on Mon thx .
@@ArnoldsDesign what kind of pump that You use?
Nice device, 😎!! But that body ... what a waste of (residual) material ...$$$$$$ 😕!!
But!! New subscriber and greetings from Holland ... The Beautiful ... 😂😂!!
lot of work for something you can buy for $30
Uh, yeah.
next time try not to edit so much the video you do so we can believe in what you do
