Aeroil.

That would make a nice blasting pot ,if it isnt rusted inside .

This is what my blaster has for a mixing valve ,just bolts to flat bottom so its easily adaptable

That Lindsay valve is just like mine that is wore out. How much are they? The way the blaster is designed in the illustration is how the big Econoline cabinet's pot works. Sand drops out of the tank/pot into an airstream. Simple but effective.
ADDED: I just checked Big A's Place and the Lindsay valves appear to be unavailable. I might make a block off plate for mine to bolt onto the Lindsay with a 1/2" pipe bung welded to it and plump it like The Econoline and see if it works.

That lindsay valve ,lists for 2,000.
I found this one but it doesnt show a price

These would be simple to attach ,three bolts ,just need a flate plate welded to the bottom of the unit with the matching 3 holes threaded

This may be the easiest one to adapt ,simple pipe mount and one of the least expensive

Yep ,i am thinking this is the one for my big blast pot ,simple pipe in and pipe out ,it uses the same coupler my smaller blaster uses . I would just need to cap the existing out lets and ad one to the bottom to attach .

Yeah, my Lindsay has the flat plate with the valve. I may simplify it making a plate with a 1/2" pipe bung attached and plumb it like the Econoline and see if it works. No moving parts. Yesterday I was looking at the Econoline plumbing to copy it. I can take pictures if anyone is interested.
ADDED: I just looked at the drawing in post # 10 and the Econoline cabinet is plumbed that way.

I cant find a tag any where on the unit just the lettering on the top cap . I couldnt hardly get the cap off ,found out it had vacuum sealed its self so i am guessing it is probably still in great shape
