Thumbs down Harbor Freight Sand blast cabinet

For those that were thinking of buying a Harbor Freight $229 Sand blast cabinet. Prior to filling with media and parts you will have to brace up the CHEAP A%^ legs on it. Its hold 40 lbs of sand (not much) and parts. If you try to move it even as much as 6 inches it will lay down like a camel. It was the strangest thing I've seen in a while.
The cabinet was to close to the wall so I tried moving it out 6 inches and the front legs folded under. While trying to lift it back up to fix the front legs the back legs folded under. So there it was like a camel in the sand legs sticking out all over the place and damn heavy. I fixed the legs and braced them up with some angle iron.

Its a good blaster for the money with a light and all but just brace up the legs before you load it. Get a desicant snake for the air line so it doesn't shoot mud at the parts and get their $99 dust collector which works nicely so you don't have mud in your lungs.
