I first got into sandblasting by cleaning off rusted parts on my classic car restoration projects, then got into the art of sandblasting glass, tinkered with small rock carvings and then worked with someone blasting rocks for a business.
Although I’ve planned on putting information together about rock blasting, I haven’t really shared a lot of information on it yet. Now I am finally getting around to putting some information together which many of you requested. To start off, I wanted to provide some ideas. Below is a list of some basic rock carving ideas to get you thinking creatively. I will be putting more information together soon. You may also download this list as a PDF here.
