    Looks great, Steve, and the adaptation of the blower plate to the 3x2 top is first rate! What is the process, "vapour blasting"?

    Enjoy the little things in life, and you may look back one day and realize that they were really the BIG things.

    Vapor blasting uses very small (100-150 micron) glass beads in a high-pressure water stream. Neat system, and non-aggressive - unlike other media systems.

    Yes Vapour blasting Roger, its basically a glass bead in water, Its nice because it peens the surface which closes the pores which makes it very easy to clean and stays nice for years.
