I had a look on the websites but couldn't see any for $20.. was it a special ?

bunnings (and SCA) have the portable sandblasters, but need Air Compressor to use.. I don't have an AC frown .. would like one so I can do a little hobby painting.. especially on the mower bases.

They were on sale at SCA, they have them periodically so probably not in their regular web listing, but last time I was at Bunnings they had a whole display of the Airpower brand although to tell the truth I didn't check which ones they actually had as I have pretty well every tool I need already. Keep an eye out for their specials when they have the Blackridge compressor and tool set on special at SCA. My neighbour got one a few years back and they are good value, when on sale they are around half normal price.
