I get email updates of new products from some of my favorite vendors. Dime City Cycles sent me this link for a micro sized vapor blaster.

It is interesting in how many of the YouTube videos, the sample pieces being cleaned are motorcycle parts. In any event this home/hobbyist tool looks pretty good. However even as a hobbyist tool, its a bit pricey.
I know that Olaf has farmed out some parts for vapor blasting. I don't believe it was local.
Query: anyone know of someone doing this locally?
The same manufacturer (Vapor Honing Technologies), makes many bigger and better versions, with the price and features increasing proportionally.
I have taken the dive of a couple of tools that were above basic hobbyist entry level: my JD Squared tubing bender and my Millermatic welder. It tempting to take the plunge on a more serious level vapor blaster. Not that I have the space or anything ....
Peace & getting rid of grease, Dennis
