Big Sale Has Started - UPDATED 07-31-25 (01 Apr 2025)
As some of you know my dad passed away 2 months ago today, on May 31, 2025. I posted it in the Members Only section when it happened. Thanks to all of you who have offered kind words on the forum, with phone calls, and visits in person during this time.
The Big Sale is on but not like originally planned, it is a by appointment type of thing now. I don't have the manpower, or the desire to do a big event like originally planned, I just need to sell a lot of parts that are taking up too much space here. I have been told and believe we are overloaded with Wheel Horse parts like no one has ever seen. Peeps have already been coming in from different parts of the country and buying a lot of stuff due to seeing the sale page, and seeing we are the only Wheel Horse only business in the USA that does things on the scale we do. The sale will continue for awhile until I free up some more space but you may not want to wait too long as things are being sold every day and there are limits to how many of certain parts will be sold.
As it says on the page it is still under construction and the page isn't finished yet. I've had a ton of calls for parts and the Big Sale Page may help answer some questions about what is here before peeps call. I hope that page is also clear that we DO NOT SHIP anything... This is a by appointment type of thing now. Be sure to call before you come to make sure the day isn't already full with peeps scheduled to come in, and make sure what you want is still available.
Picked up another sand blaster

True pressure systems, or pressure cabinets are pretty cool. You put media in them and don't have to refill them manually. The system reclaims the media, filters and screens it, then the pot refills itself. The only time you add more is when it's used up. You can do a lot more work and do it a lot faster as the system pretty much takes care of itself.
The guys in Indy just sold a new one, got it installed, and called me and told me the people they sold the new one to were selling their old pressure system. They were selling it cheap and wanted it out of the way. Of course I broke out into the happy dance and ran for the truck. :dance1
I went and picked it up right away yesterday. The cabinet is 4' wide, 3' deep, and 3' tall inside, and is completely functional. We will give it a red + ivory paint job, upgrade the nozzle, the hoses and gaskets to make it like the new pressure systems. We will be running the new plastic media in it and be using it just for ultra fast paint stripping.

Got it unloaded and a spot cleaned out for it yesterday, that took awhile... Just got done getting the air hookup and shutoff in the main line, and changed out the outlet that's gonna be used to a hospital grade 20A. There's a lot of cleaning and seals to replace, the thing looks like it has a lot of leaks. It also needs some new hoses. I just noticed a piece of screen over the main one also, looks like it blasted a hole in the main one over time. Now that's my kind of blaster! :rolling

The box has been modified to put 4 standard lamp holders in it with the regular twisty bulbs. The lamp holders are only $2.60 in town, about $10.00 for 4 of them. Including the bulbs this is only a $15.00 upgrade to go to 240 watts of light with 4 of the 13 watt (60 watt equivalent) twisty bulbs. This is a good cheap mod for anyone who has any type of blaster. We also painted the inside of the box silver for a little more reflection. Depending on the bulbs we can run from 160 to 400+ watts of light in there now. I think the little woman will be happy.
