Another thing to add:

If you have a Tractor Supply Co. in your area, its a good place to get blasting supplies. I get my "tear off" window screens there, along with media. 50lbs for less than $30, and dont have to worry about the shipping charges for something that heavy.

TP is a great resource for blasting cabinets/supplies. Good products and price. I probably wouldve gone with them if I didnt get the deal I got on mine. Eastwood is way high on their blasting stuff. I made the mistake of buying blasting nozzles from them, then to find ceramic nozzles for basically nothing at the local "cheap tool" place. On that note, dont even bother with steel tips. Havent used the carbides, but the ceramics last plenty long.

You can also get your media at Grainger. I use a 10 mil mylar over the glass and just tape it down on the ends, It works great. Just like Belair said "Get one bigger then you think you need!!!"
