Thien baffle dust separator

[@skkfor]

Many thanks for taking the time to make and share the vid. Nicely done. Love the details and the meticulous effort with the paint and the way you aligned the barrel clamps. Also like the way you showed the baffle in action and shared the results. Killer job, man!

Many thanks !!! I'm glad you liked the video.

Great job, and it works well. Now you can improve the dust collection for your router 😉

[@contessa.adella]

Surprised how well it coped....since you were trying really hard to overload the flow in the cyclone chamber!

[@Terhiman]

Nicely done but might I suggest if you do it again, don't bother with screwing the acetate: where you marked the screw lines, just a thin bead of glazing silicon would do the job as it would provide much better air tightness top and bottom and the panel would never fall out.

Lovely build 👍.......sounds like you got some damn big wasps there too (11:23 etc)

[@FrankenShop]

Like you, I make heavy use of routers. I think they are one of the most versatile tools in the shop. Nice job on the build!

Thanks!

Looks great and a nice design, especially having the glass in one stretch (so many designs call for an awkward cut in the glass), though, I don't think I'd glue the top on, as you may want to tweak the design in the future.

Hello, thanks for praise. Bonding I have chosen to ensure maximum sealing. Every single leakage significantly reduces the efficiency of the separator. This is already the 2nd version of the separator. So I'm not planning any further improvements.

You live next to a Formula 1 track?

[@Grumpyoldtwit]

Ha ha! The whole time you were routing, I was thinking... “this guy need a dust collector!”

[@miscbits6399]

What you need now is a collection of secondary dust catchers for your tables - big mouth type - to catch what's escaping your machine vac attachments. As others have said: MDF is nasty stuff, you really want as much of it picked up and out of the air as possible.

Jack Sparrow builds a cyclone. 👍👍 Awesome

[@glenn549]

awesome build

[@tomruth9487]

You do beautiful work. But at 7:10 those are some sketchy cuts in my opinion. There is a chance of kickback with the board and the fence, as the board is not firmly supported and could jam. I'm not worried about you having problems because you have a lot of experience, but someone new at woodworking or more timid, might see you do this, try it, and have a bad experience. It's so easy to use a stop block against the fence to set the distance, as not much time is wasted. Also, you might enjoy a better push stick. If you look at push stick designs on here, you might find some that you like and you will never go back to the one you have. Thanks for a great video.

Yes you're right . The ideal solution is to attach a piece of wood to the fence as a stop. To set the cut length. After cut, the wood has space and no kickback is possible. Push stick I use what was like the original accessories to the saw. It works great.

Can I get a link to your plans for this baffle? Or I’ll buy them from you.

[@DapurDIY21]

Good job brother

[@delo56]

Nice craftsmanship.

[@IrishChippy]

Nice one. Maybe I should paint mine.

[@scotthaddad563]

I like the design but I think the real value of dust collectors is in their ability to trap the very tiny particles before they reach the final filter.How does this design hold up.

[@charliecrash3450]

Bro, you work fast!

[@ritchiroyat1444]

Bonjour,des plans aurait sympa...😉

[@ginoasci2876]

Awesome job !

Thanks!

[@user-ti5df1jg7t]

👍👍👍👌супер!! Молодец!

[@Billlupton]

Brilliant Video.

Thanks!

[@frameriteairdrie578]

I LOVE the way your router destroys your workshop at 3:26 even with a vacuum hose. Is there any chance the filter was clogged?

Yes, it is possible. Exhaustion usually works normally. This is only happening when milling grooves

[@mlbuxbaum]

dust mask please...MDF dust is no joke....trust me

[@domak1284]

ten průhledný plast se dá v česku sehnat? já to dělal z plechu :D

No jasně. Je to Lexan nebo to můžeš najít jako polykarbonát co se dává na pergoly. Ano plech je možnost ale já chtěl vidět dovnitř jak se to tam točí.

[@domak1284]

@ jasně špatně jsem to napsal myslel jsem, že je to drahý nebo co jsem se tak díval tak třeba 150kč a to se mi za to dávat nechce nebo jsem se jen špatně díval?

Jj je to drahý . Když bbych to stavěl podruhý tak to udělám z plechu.

[@doughaber3330]

Are you serious? I need therapy now.

[@driveprotect]

Ca I have the plan or something for this?

Unfortunately, I have no plans. I built it according to this page. lumberjocks.com/Sk1pp3r/blog/41920 www.jpthien.com/smf/index.php?topic=563.0

[@philipbeckett8593]

would have been better with some commentory

[@Roderick_Legato]

Name that song.

[@ahnurmohamed]

you certanly need dust collecting system

[@yvescharmousse1692]

Ah! I see that you have listened to me, you wear a mask after.

I use 3M 6000 mask with dust filter when working with wood.

[@scratchy101]

How ironic, it looks like you need a better dust collector connected to your router..... It kind of defeats the purpose of building the baffle if the dust stays on the table and shop floor

Yes vacuum cleaner could have more power. Except milling dust collector works well.

Sorry that despite your final piece is just super great, I have to press the dislike due to the way you were (are?) using the lumber tools. Knowing all the possible threads that may occur, I feel so uncomfortable watching this video... I don't know if you have a jig-saw, using a router in such excessive way may significantly reduce the durability and the dust may cause problem to your lung. In addition, you were not wearing goggles looking so close to your work piece, remained the router switched on with both your hands off and EVEN PUT ON A PIECE OF CLOTH around your neck while you were working! The following may cause serious injury due to table saw kick back. - you were not using a riving knife on your table saw even with very narrow pieces - you were standing right behind the blade - you were cutting repetitive pieces using the miter gauge TOGETHER with the fence. I am not here to blame - but just not to drop a dislike irresponsibly without any reason. By the time I see this video is 2020.... I hope you are still fine. I want to share this message to every one watching lumber work videos - not just to appreciate the great final piece but really pay attention seriously to the safety precautions in using the tools, especially the table saw.

Hi thanks for your feedback. This video is 4 years old. I do these things differently. And yeah I'm fine.

[@crackerjack3359]

Ever heard of a jig saw?

Yes heard, I have two jigsaws.

[@IrishChippy]

Routers make better circles, and if you watched the whole video you would see him using a jigsaw
