    Protection from silica dust?

    You own a pressure pot though? Seems to me like you'll be doing more blasting, especially if you like the way it turns out. The hood and filter will be cheaper than paying someone to do it once.

    how about a utility trailer, and just put some 4x4's under the hot tub for support. I've moved alot of stuff like this. Latest was a hot rod project that didn't have any axles.

    Wind powered battery charger?

    Think that the turbine would have to be on top, further away from the tow vehicle to avoid the turbulence. Youd have to get the ratios right so that the alt would spin in the correct range. The alt woud have to be in an enclosed area, out of the weather, so this would involve either a gearbox...
