We have a small machine shop, and a single waterjet (Omax 2652). We've had it for a number of years, and have just manually shoveled out the garnet when the time comes.
I'm finally tired of doing it this way, and looking into removal systems. Price is probably the primary consideration. After some research we've narrowed it down to about 4 possibilities. Before I call for pricing on the final three, I'm wondering if anyone has any experience with these....at this point, Barton's BART looks like the frontrunner.
Links below, thanks in advance for any advice or opinions!
* Barton's BART (Total: $4k (device and required pressure washer))
