The size of the cabinet doesn't really determine the CFM required.
Size the cabinet to the size of the parts you'll be blasting.
Size the gun nozzle to your compressor capacity. That size compressor should have no problem keeping up with a blast cabinet, but check the required capacity listed in the specs. A 10 HP compressor will produce about 35-40 CFM at 100 PSI.
You really need some kind of dust collector, otherwise you won't be able to see what you are doing. You could get by with hooking a shop vac to a smaller unit, but a true dust collector will work much better.
Also, a water trap on the incoming air line is generally required, unless you air is pretreated through a chiller and is exceptionally dry.
When choosing a cabinet, look for one with an externally mounted work light. Sand will quickly destroy one mounted inside the cabinet. Also avoid one with round corners on the glass. You'll be at the mercy of the manufacturer to get replacements. And it will need replacing when it gets clouded.
