    ....or more accurately, sand.

    Im bored and have nothing else I want to angle grind [1]
    So, while Im waiting on my new hydralic bench to arrive, i thought i'd have
    a play with the compressor and sandblasting gun but I'll be ferked if i can
    find anywhere local that has any of the appropriate sand / beads or whatever
    the feck you use!

    So, FOAK that is UKRM, anyone know anywhere local to bedford that would be
    able to help, or failing that, anywhere online that has some? I really have
    googled and all i can find is sandblasters and cabinets but not the media
    itself :-(

    [1] Yes I know about the scooters, but that's /your/ want, not mine :)

    Yes , why though?

    Ive been playing in the workshop just now and basically used some dried sand
    in it and blasted a bit of paint off a scrap of metal, seems though the sand
    goes all over the joint. So, looks like I'll be building meself a
    sandblasting cabinet then.

    Ah, but /will/ they?
    How will they know what i dont know?
    more importantly, if i know what i dont know, how will they know it?
    Or, alternatively, if they know what i know that i dont know, how will they
    know that i know i dont know it......and then think of it?
