Here in the winter months it’s a pain in the ass, cold cold cold I have been thinking to move my wood shop into the one side of the basement but want a a good collector……..what would you use…..I’m looking at something like this ..
I’ve given thought to something similiar Comp but currently I have two Midis from Festool keeping my air clean down there. When I build my garage I’ll probably go that route as I’ll have a larger planer and table saw then.
ya a shop vac is nice for the shop but buying new bags just cost a fortune. look into buying a dust deputy or build one. its easy; just use a sheet metal and form a cone, or just use a street cone 😛
my winter project is building a cyclone separator with clear plexi glass.
I bought a kit from harbor freight, something similar to your link comp. but i actually just need the motor.
paid with coupon about 150 for it. Item# 97869
I will keep you posted when I gonna start with the project.
Pretty cool.
I have the dewalt dust extractor, it uses filters . No bags.
