I haven't tried one, but it looks like a mini sand blaster, without a cabinet.
I have used one of those, and the problem, even with a sealed up cabinet is that they get very fine talcum powder-like dust everywhere. You might not want to use it in your darkroom, or anywhere close.

I live in the Denver area, and that's what we do with our dust ... just let it blow on out I70 into Kansas.

Have you ever been to the twice-yearly camera shows in Denver? There usually are a fair number of Graflex cameras and pieces on the various vendor tables. There used to be a gentleman and his wife that had a big Graflex display, but he wasn't at the one last May.
