DUST COLLECTION - Basics and Setup - Woodworking

[@ILikeCatsMoreThanILikeYou]

One tip if you're using a Shop-Vac, you can attach an additional hose to the outlet and direct it outside of your shop so any fine dust particles that make it through the filter are pushed to the open air and not into your shop. Just be sure to point the hose at whichever neighbor you like least.

[@Lincolnstww]

My friend has been pleased with this vacuum. I put it together and other than one of the wheels coming back out(which I had a bit of difficulty with) kzbin.infoUgkxnBiz5H40H0BTcRcPDEHZkcV2smSjfUD0 it was easy to assemble. It's worked well and the large size has been handy for vacuuming up sawdust around my friend's tablesaw. The wheels and handle make it simple to move around, so the bulky size isn't overly a negative, unless you're lacking on space. It has a bag that can be used to collect the dust, though it doesn't have to be used. It works perfectly great without it and it is an added expense when replacing the bag. If vacumming water, just leave it out. It comes with various attachments, which are handy. A durable bag attaches to the handle to hold them and I love this feature. It has good power and it's a nice option for a shop vac.

I feel like most of the time it takes me longer than it should to research something new, and what I like about all your videos is that you somehow manage to impart more information, in a shorter amount of time, and with a (semi) humorous touch. Your “straight to the point” narrative is refreshing as it is helpful.

[@carterscustomrods]

I tested 6 different small dust collectors. From the $139 Harbor Freight single stage all the way up to the $750 Rockler Dust-Right. And the one I went with... the WEN DC3474. It was $200, and claimed to be 600cfm. However, the difference between it and the Rockler at 1350cfm was hardly noticeable. And definitely not worth the price difference. With that said, this is the first time WEN has impressed me. I've have nothing but bad experiences with their products, so I was EXTREMELY skeptical. But, through Amazon, I had nothing to lose, as I could return it. I also ditched the bag. I'm using a 55gal steel drum with dual 45° pvc fittings with the WEN motor/impeller attached to it. And then, I ran the outflow of the dust, through my wall and outside. But it doesn't expell almost any fine dust until the 55gal drum is just over half full. So it's filtering I'd assume 99.999% of dust, snd decreases by x % as the drum fills. So, test out the DC3474... it's the 7.4amp model with induction motor... the 6.? Amp version is horrible. Do not get that one.

Interesting setup for the ducting, I was thinking of running across the ceiling and down to the different stations but I'm having second thoughts now given I can get a smaller 2-stage and just move the hose from machine to machine, which I don't think would be to big a deal.

Thanks for the video. I came across a festool extractor for 120,on market place and grabbed it with no idea how I would use it in my small shop. I ended up adding the same cyclone you have mounted to the top of the extractor and honestly, I’m blown away on how well it works. It so light I can move it around my shop with no effort. I will say this, I tested the setup with my dewalt planer on full tilt and it didn’t miss a beat. I collected 95% and we all know you will never get 100% on a planer. Im surprised more people haven’t done this. It really works well. Oh, and there is no dust in the extractor 🤷‍♂️. Not sure how that happened but very happy it did.

I've also heard of people negatively pressurizing their space by having a fan which exhausts outdoors. That prevents dust in the shop from making it to other spaces in the house since air is always flowing in the direction of house to shop.

[@-A.n.d.r.e.w-]

this is a pretty good idea! To make it work properly you'd need really tight control over areas of leak so you get a functional level of negative pressure and decent air circulation. Or just a big enough fan...

Like one of the previous comments, I too had seen a lot of videos on Dust Collection. I have recently purchased a 2-stage system for a shop that I will be laying out in the extra garage of our newly purchased home. I was tired of my shop being full of dust and looking forward to a cleaner work environment. Like you, I have tried to use the Oneida Cyclone but it had a hard time keeping up, especially when planing. However, this video has helped me in properly directing the completion of my DC system. While I had already planned on how to plumb it, but not yet started due to contractors working on adding more electrical in the shop, your video has given me a new direction to think about. May not save me money in the long run but may help me direct the expenditures differently. Thank you, Roger

Very good point about just getting a better, more efficient sander vs a more elaborate dust collection system. If you can simply keep less dust from getting up in the air in the first place (vs. trying to deal with it once it's there) then that's a win, and definitely a factor to consider. Most of us don't think we need a 400 dollar sander (and many of us indeed do not) but some of those same cats wouldn't blink an eye before buying a dust collector worth just as much if not more. I'm just rocking the good old Dewalt cordless 5" sander for now but that actually gave me a lot to think about in terms of dust collection, as I'm in a small space like yourself.

Thanks for all these wonderful tips on controlling dust. I use just about all of them although not as efficiently as your setup. Your video has given me some great ideas on how to improve my setup. For air filtration, I went with the $20 box fan idea. I started by attaching the filter with duct tape, But I found some cheap L brackets from Home Depot, screwed those to the back and now I can just slide the filter in and out. It does work because you can start to see dust collecting on the filter. I also like the idea of wearing a smock or bib so I don't carry wood dust and chips into the house. And I try to always shower after being in the shop all day. It definitely helps with my sinuses. Thanks again for putting this video together. Excellent job!

[@kenb6102]

What a great idea the boom arm is! I especially like that it pivots. I work in 1 side of a 2 car garage and I always struggle with extension cords and dust collector hoses all over the floor.

[@brandtl1486]

My experience is that unless you go big… really big with a powerful dust extractor system, no matter what you do, you are still battling dust around the shop. The chop saw and tablesaw just spew it out. Router, spews it out. Ironically, I think my sander with vacuum attachment is one of the better non dust spewing tools. I just wear a great dust mask, and the best thing I ever bought for my shop was a larger wall mountable greenhouse fan. I am a hobby winter woodworker and burn scrap wood for heat so I simply cross vent my shop for about 3 minutes and it really does a great job clearing the air, and does not appreciably lower shop temp. Not a good solution for woodworking full time.

Some good info in here, and reasonable reasons as to why you choose to use what you do. I come from a HVAC background, so I know how important good dust control is. That said, I'm in the process of setting up a new woodturning (and little flat work) workshop, and I see so many people with their dust control inside the shop, as you know it's the fine particulate that is more dangerous to our health, so I always suggest to either build in a small room to contain the dust collector if room is available, or to build an outside adjacent room for the machinery. And, with the room filter, duct it to the outside so the filtered air that can still contain particulate that the filter can't catch is forced outside of the workshop. And also remember to have an opening somewhere to allow fresh air in. Thanks for sharing. I've subbed, so I can learn more great ideas.

You actually have the best dust collection video by a large margin. I say this after sifting through quite a few that miss the mark. I also have experience with the vacuum versus dust collector and also the Dust Deputy. Basically the key things are that a 2.5" vacuum as you imply is useless with big sanders like drum sanders. Also the 2.5" vacuums are useless with lathes due to the configuration of the machines. However, I agree for a miter saw and even a table saw a 2.5" vacuum is great and sufficient. A bandsaw is okay either way but due to how the dust collects around the wheels, a 4" dust collector is better. For drum sanders and similar machines you do need the 4" big ole hose dust collectors, same for a lathe (especially sanding on a lathe). Now the Dust Deputy with the 2.5" vacuum does help but that's not a necessity in my opinion. What is a necessity even in a small shop (and maybe more necessary in a small shop) is an air filtratrion system. Yes it will cost at least $400 for a decent one, but what is your health worth? I'd recommend the $380 Rikon Model 62-1100 fior a smaller space like mine (20 x10).. If you have a larger shop then you should step up to the larger (around $700) systems. Don't just hope the air is cleaned, it is worth it to grab one of these air filtration systems. By the way some of these like mine have a remote so that when you leave the shop area, you can tell it to keep running 2/4/8 hours etc., while you are away, and get the air nice and clean.These air filtration systems hang from the ceiling, so they don't take up any floor space. So I think you nailed it with the high pressure low pressue info that you started with - it's just the laws of physics. Well done, thanks.

[@xagur8]

Just discovered your Channel today when it showed up on my feed. This dust collection video was very informative and helpful, thank you for providing it!

Especially your next one, about dust ports on job site table saws! ;-)

[@Lincolnstww]

lol - there is sadly not a great solution for jobsite dust collection. You would need to enclose the body of the saw to effectively capture the dust. One of the downsides to jobsite and contractor style saws. Best thing you can do is use the blade guard and the dust port at the same time

They offer several times the surface area for the air to vent back into the shop, when compared to the cloth bags. They do filter down to 0.5 microns. so pretty fine material. If you have the cloth bags and switch, you will notice a huge improvement in air flow volume. Another point, I have the 'Lone Ranger' for my off/on switch for my DC system (3 hp Oneida). Some of the cheaper systems require you to 'aim' the switch at the DC. The Lone Ranger operates on FM so you don't have to aim. I do keep 2 switches in my shop. In my wood lathe area, it stays on a clip so it doesn't get lost in the shavings. In the flat work area, it floats from machine to machine, and some times stays in my shop apron. For some one just beginning, this is excellent! I have no experience with the Clear View DC systems, but have heard good things about them. Oh, the pleated paper filters, I have hosed mine out before for cleaning them. Keeps the dust down, and thus far, it doesn't seem to bother them at all. Oh, dust masks: I believe shaving is an unnatural act, one that I won't do. There are a number of 'positive pressure' masks out there for bearded people since the standard dust masks do not seal around a beard or mustache. I have heard of people taking old CPAP/snoring machines and making positive pressure masks out of them. I think you have to get a better and maybe bigger filter for those. They also keep your glasses from fogging up.

Have you counted the amount of time you spend sitting on your table saw vs actually cutting on it? The answer may surprise you.

I was told it was an expensive bench when I purchased - works well

Love the way you present your vids, to the point, informative and still with a sense of humor. Keep going. Cheers mate.

Really good video, thanks. I like your "just the facts" approach with a little humor sprinkled in.

Nice one, that was really clear and great - you got all the basic physics right without ever talking about physics! Quality and good advice.

This boom arm is genuinely the best thing I have seen on KZbin. And I’ve seen things on youtube since 2006. Thank you. I’m going to incorporate this idea. I’ve been really struggling to find a good solution. Didn’t like the idea of moving around everything

Just trying to set up some dust extraction for my garage type sorkshop and this has helped me a lot. Thanks for doing it and thanks for sharing.

I just inherited a 2HP machine from a workshop upgrade across town, and while I don't have room to set it up (yet), you've given me some really solid ideas from your video. Thank you, and yes, I just subscribed. :-)

[@Lincolnstww]

Thank you and congrats on the new machine
