Dual Sandblast Cabinet

[RP14]

Have 2 cabinet sandblasters and a homemade pot blaster. The cabinet ones are suction and direct pressure. I was thinking since both have the same type of cabinet other than the DP cabinet having the pot on the side.
My thinking is why not combine the 2 setups into 1 cabinet, that way I can have "light duty" and "heavy duty" blasting in same cabinet. Mainly trying to save on space.

Has anyone done this? I have heard some have put a pot blaster hose into the cabinet.
Open to ideas or suggestions.
Thank You

I've a DIY dishwasher cabinet and use a pot blaster with the hose going into the cabinet.....only issue is reloading the sand back in to the pot.

How will you clean it out to switch to "Light duty" after doing "heavy duty" work ?

Has a hinged bottom dump to dump the media. If I was to use lighter media such as walnut shells, etc. I blow out the insides real good. But don't see using anything light, even though I have a couple bags of walnut shells.

Perfect, could not see why I couldn't have best of both worlds.
