Abstract:
A sand-blasting system comprising:a source of pressurized grit particulates; a nozzle for discharging a spray of the pressurized grit particulates; a flexible supply hose connecting the source of the grit particulates to the nozzle to supply the grit particulates from the source thereof to the nozzle; and a sand-blasting fixture for supporting the nozzle and a distal portion of the supply hose, wherein said fixture includes: (i) rigid proximal and distal support tubes joined to one another so as to establish an angle therebetween; (ii) rigid back-lash support member extending outwardly from said distal support tube; wherein (iii) said distal portion of the supply hose is movably supported within said proximal and distal support tubes such that said nozzle positioned adjacent to said back-lash support member is adjustable by means of said distal portion of the supply hose being further advanced into or retracted from said proximal and distal support tubes.
