Glass will eat the ball valve that shuts off the grit, Dont know about Cob or walnut.

I own a Buster Blaster from Chesepeake first thing stacey told me was Dont use Glass!

It works kinda like the old sand blast pots that used a ball valve for a dead man it will ware out after time.

Mine has a Pinch valve on it pinches a short section of hose off. The only thing I don't like is if you forget to drain the air off the media tank before you shut down the valve opens and media starts shooting out until it drains off.
