Is it a small item or big item (larger than a set of headers)etc and how many. My father in law has a full blown machine shop in his basement and has a sand blaster that works great (it's a pretty good size one). I've sand blasted a couple things in it like a set of long tubes, etc.

He's located in lilburn off of hwy 29 & Killian Hill.

$150? It would take 10 minutes to do a set of SFCs. Hit up the local trophy shops, most of them have sandblasters.

No that's not him, lol. he just does work on the side, he works for a big machine shop and has his own too.

I'm sure he'd do them for a TON cheaper than that. lol

Where are they located at?

Like I said, 5 or 10 minutes. I spent a lot of time in a trophy shop, worst job I ever had, but we had some cool equipment, sandblasting was fun.

Billy does good work, I'd had some stuff sent to him. However it did take FOREVER to get the parts back. Perfection has a price.
