PAB Gun in UK

I got a question below from someone asking if they sell the PAB sandblaster gun in the UK area. I posted the question and my response below because I thought it would be helpful.

Question:
Hi Eric
Thanks for the email. One question, would you have any idea where I might get a PAB type gun in the UK. I bought a pressure pot which has a simple on off turn valve which I consider will give me no control what so ever.
Any ideas would be appreciated
Regards
Willie

Hi Willie,

I thought I heard that they created a distribution center over in the UK somewhere but I could be wrong. Another guy from the UK emailed me and said that he got one. I can’t remember if he had it shipped over there or if he said they had a distribution center.

It would be best to just ask PAB through their website. On the other hand, you can make something similar for a few dollars fairly easy with pinch valves as you can see in my picture above. It’s not as nice but is worth giving a try. I show how to make these with pictures in my sandblaster plans here.

I’ve also made a homemade generic version of the PAB here but haven’t got it perfected yet so those plans aren’t out yet.

If you have some creative mechanically inclined skills, give it a try designing/ making one. There really isn’t much to it.

Hope that helps. Thanks
