AA, I have been contemplating this idea for about a year now.....not for sanding, but for carving. My neighbor across the street just bought a 40lb pressurized pot about a month ago. He sandblasted some signs for me with it for Hukilau and it worked for that, but I'm not sure just yet how deep you can get with it for carving. I use the rubber stencil material like Sam mentioned and have already attached it to a log with a face weeded out to try it out...just gotta do it. It's very messy and a lot more work than it looks. I think it will look just 2-dimensional unless you could free hand carve with it. I usually take my signs to a Monument company to have them blasted. They use all enclosed electronic High pressure badass blasters! Moves back and forth on it's own. I'll let you know how it works for carving. Getting ready to give it a whirl VERY soon.
