Just to give you some ideas on homemade tools.
I have always needed a Sandblasting Cabinet, so a few years ago I made it. I use a pressure pot blaster with it and it does a wonderful job. I do use Glass bead in this.
There is a 8" door on the bottom to dump the beads. I have a plastic tote with wheels to get access, dump that into a screened box and fill my pot.
I have less than $100 in it, not including the pressure pot. It's a 275 gallon oil tank, Safety glass window and under the light is Lexan. You need to use a vacuum cleaner or squirrel cage fan to give it a positive vent in the cabinet.
You could also make this from plywood.
