Stop in for a cup of coffee

Hi Ray!
I've been spending an hour or so using my new sand blaster. It works but the sand hose is way too stiff. And I'm thinking maybe I should have fixed the air filter on my compressor when it broke a couple of years back. No filter in combination with a cloud of sand dust seems to have had an effect on the compression ...
Or can you easily turn the shaft by hand on your compressor?
And I need a bigger one. And a tent. And maybe buy some proper blasting sand. Sweeping up and sifting the sand every ten minutes is a major drag.
