Was great to see the excitement in your face about getting back in the shop doing some woodworking! I know you don't want to hear it BUT because of your sinuses, cut a hole in the outside wall, build a shed (like April did) and put your DC out there or at least run the exhaust and filters out there. No need to go expensive crazy on the filters and all the other stuff you might try to add! You (of all people) can "easily" patch the hole when (and if) you sell the house. BTW, the piping for your DC looks good, however that will limit how much you can change machines around in the future (haha). Since we are on the subject, Yes you are a creature of change, so I'm wondering when you will move the miter station/cabinet to another wall (just kidding). Happy woodworking my friend!

The new DC layout looks really efficient. Not very many long runs or branch lines. I picked up a big grizzly air cleaner from a local guy that was shutting down his shop. Just like you I've noticed that making sure I let it run frequently makes a huge difference in air quality. Can't wait to see the new video on Sunday, you seem super excited about it!

Lathe work produces some of the finest dust you can make, especially when sanding. I suggest you make a hood to place behind the lathe while you work that hooks up to your dust collection system or shop vac. Or at least an adapter so you can place the hose of your shop vac directly behind the piece you're turning. Love the videos. Love the projects. Your channel is definitely one of the ones I look forward to watching each week.

I have sinus issues as well and I always run my dust collector in my garage shop when ever a tool is running. I put in an Oneida V3000 with spiral ducting that I bought from a local plumbing supply store, and blast gates from Lee Valley. Everything fit together perfectly and the dust collector pulls around 1000 cfm at the tool (measured with a digital anemometer) with one blast gate open at a time. More than enough to keep everything virtually dust free.

Hey Jay, glad you had a speedy recovery. Regarding the timer on the air filter, I might suggest a couple of oscillating fans that start when the filter comes on but only run for an hour or so. I think they would stir up the surface dust to be collected and make a huge difference with the air quality. Looking forward to Sunday's mystery video.

Those ferrels will look terrific. Great Idea on your part. If you want to look at some chisels that are off the beaten track you might want to look at the IBC chisels. They come apart so you can easily make handles for them but also the entire back is flat all the way up to the screw that holds it all together. Your idea will work on them also.

As I mentioned on your IG feed, I'll be watching your war on dust intently, as I am now dealing with a pretty severe dust allergy that is keeping me out of the shop. I don't have a dust collector yet but I do use the Grizzly air filter/cleaner (hangs from the ceiling). I love it's timer feature. I could use a tool, make a cloud of dust then go inside while it runs on the timer, come back out a bit later and the air would be MUCH cleaner. Like everyone else, excited to see you back in the shop soon, too!

I am currently overhauling my dust collection system too. Just ordered a Clearvue CV1800 and will finally be running ductwork rather than moving the DC from tool to tool. I'll be going with 6" ductwork, trying to decide between PVC and snaplock. The pricing seems to be similar. EDIT: Duh, should have watched the whole video. Looks like you're looking at a Clearvue too.

@brucematthews64177 жыл бұрын
If the chisels are to be primarily hand pushed or LIGHTLY tapped then just about anything would work. If you expect some moderate to heavy mallet use I'd go for something harder and heavier than either walnut or BE maple. Someone mentioned senge. The pieces of wenge I've got here are super hard. Almost metal like. And yes, they would look fantastic as chisel handles. The hickory would/should be good as well. Anything that is harder and hard to split would be excellent. For my own dust collection system I focused on both CFM as well as proper machine setup to ensure a good air velocity at the dust producing areas. For example on your miter saw station you've got the nice box already. But some heavy vinyl curtains that hang part way down or around the edges that can close up the opening a little will greatly aid with getting a good velocity across the opening to draw back in any dust that is moving out into the shop. CFM is only good if it is used to produce good FPS of the airflow to pull the dust away.

@the_sharp_carpenter7 жыл бұрын
My 2 cents would be for the walnut, for me it is lighter (weight) and I tend to choke up on the blade of the chisel and the more weight on the handle end of things gets tiring on the thumb. I know it seems like a small thing but I was using mine for an extended time the other day and actually thought to my self "i wish this was lighter". Oh, and I like walnut. Great videos keep up the good work!!
@kingofthesea1237 жыл бұрын
Nice looking rings Jay. Rather than choosing between walnut or maple how about a laminated handle? I would use maple for center and walnut for the outsides. The maple would give you better strength and the walnut would give you some cool contrast.

I think maple with walnut accents would look nice, but a glue lamination may not have the strength and durability you want. You could always make a solid maple handle and inlay a touch of walnut, I guess. If you want a single, solid piece, though, hickory sounds like a winner.

Pentz has great info, but not everyone needs that level of collection. If you know some of his history (it is tricky to find on his site, but it is there) He has had lung problems since childhood, so it is not surprising that he had issues working with exotic woods. I wear a P100 respirator 99% of the time in the shop. It made a huge difference for me. It is a pain, but I don't have the luxury of being able to afford thousands on an "Ideal" dust collection system.
