The panel saw is a circular saw mounted to a mechanical gantry allows it to travel smoothly in a vertical path over a frame designed to hold large flat sheets.  Sheets are held in the frame while the saw is drawn down to make a cross cut.  Alternatively, the saw can be rotated to make a horizontal, or "rip" cut.  For rip cutting, the saw is fixed in place and sheets are fed through the machine, supported on rollers.

A sand blaster is a machine that mixes abrasive grains with a jet of compressed air and allows the user to abrade the surface of a part, usually metal.  This results in a clean though roughened part free of paint, rust, and other forms of dirt.  For smaller parts the blast gun is contained in a glovebox cabinet sealed off from the outside.  The user manipulates the tool with thick rubber gloves that pass through the wall of the cabinet.

Description

A sand blaster is a machine that mixes abrasive grains with a jet of compressed air and allows the user to abrade the surface of a part, usually metal. This results in a clean though roughened part free of paint, rust, and other forms of dirt. For smaller parts the blast gun is contained in a glovebox cabinet sealed off from the outside. The user manipulates the tool with thick rubber gloves that pass through the wall of the cabinet.

The sand blaster cabinet at Artisans Asylum is located in a small room within the Metal Shop on the south wall adjacent to the enclosed loading dock.
