 I happened to get another RDM12 mast. Since he was more corroded, I decided to paint it again before going to the mast construction. The basic problem was to remove as much old paint as possible. Therefore, I decided to describe the mast. First of all, according to the instructions on youtube I built a sandblaster from an old 60kg powder fire extinguisher. This was followed by a powerful compressor. Since the compressor was an electric motor with an output of 22kW, it was necessary to reduce the compressor. So I got a 7.5kW electric motor and I had to do a V-belt transmission 1: 3. The first sandblast test was on the sandblaster itself. Then the mast followed. To be continued.
