Yes, you can reuse the once used powder by sifting it and mixing with the fresh powder. The software calculates the amount of Fresh Powder you need to add and mix with the used powder - it is about 30 % of Fresh Powder and 70 % of used powder. This applies only to PA12 powder, because the Flexa powder does not need to be refreshed and is 100% reusable directly after printing.

In sand blaster you remove the remainings of powder elements sticking to the print after first cleaning with brushes. You can compare it to washing the print in water, however sandblasting is way more efficient. In practical terms, sandblaster is necessary to get the best results and make the postprocessing run smoothly. Sandblaster is a common tool so if you own one already, you do not need to order it. Abrasive is 0.2 mm glass balls, - nozzle is 4-6 mm diameter, - working pressure is 5-8 bar. Sand blaster comes without an air-compressor (saving on shipping costs for you), so you would need to get equipped with one unit as well (recommended capacity: 290 L/min).
