could i use sand or walnut shell with this cabinet?

yes, do not exceed stated maximum cabinet pressure, around 120 to 125 psi max pressure, it will blow out the seals, play sand is cheap and even though it is in a sealed cabinet , silica sand can still lead to silicosis, aluminum oxide , garnet, glass bead and walnut shell is just fine. it does have a port for a vacuum, it keeps the cabinet clear of dust when blasting. I use mine all the time at work with no problems!!!

Is this blaster one of the better ones? It doesn't give much details. I have a home garage and want to get a good one. Thank You. Kevin

the cabinets you see on ebay and harbor freight tools are all bolt together, even the cabinet itself, ( the upper part where the gloves and window are) are all flat panels that you must assemble using their hardware. those are the ones that you read about people having to silicone all the seams to keep it fron leaking. the nesco 480 cabinet is much nicer, the upper cab part is already put together at the factory. they do not use nuts, bolts or any other hardware like the other cheap ones do. the main parts of the nesco that you have to put together are , the legs bolt to the cab, the funnel bolts to the cab, the tray bolts to the legs and that is a majority of the work. alot stronger and very durable. the cheaper ones you have to put the cab together using nuts, bolts or screws. i go into my local harbor freight tool on occasion and i have looked at these cabinets up close, well for $200.00 you get what you pay for. i use my nesco cabinet at my job for glass beading , i have another cabinet i use oxide in. this nesco cabinet can easily handle oxides and steel garnet with no problems. it is worth spending the extra money for this cabinet!!!!

Can someone recommend a compressor for this? Or at least the number of gallons recommended...

I use a Porter Cable 125 gallon compressor to keep up with the air for my blasting cabinet. Up right model works best for space.
