Dust Extraction



    This is as far as I have gotten with My dust extraction so far . Its been a little tough buying what I need to plumb it in being on such a tight budget and all . Just like every thing else that has to do with wood working it's priced too high for the average person to buy. I have 2 drops, 1 to my chop saw or mitre saw how ever you wish to phraze it and the other to my radial arm saw. I now radial arm saws are considered dinasours but I use mine everyday and love it I like it better than my mitre saw as far as accuracy and stability. The dust extraction system on this saw works really good and I'm very happy with it. On the other hand the dust extraction on my mitre saw does'nt work for CRAP there is so much stuff flying around none of gets picked up by the pick up tube I will probably slow the use of the mitre saw to a slow crawl..................Rick

I would love to hear more on your dust extraction, as i am very new to woodworking like only a few months and seeing as it is winter here in Australia at the moment I thought it would be a great time to get a work space or even a work shop setup in my garage,
I have the basic tools, you know Mitre Saw, drill, got hold of a secondhand table saw from Ebay (Bargin).
At the moment I am trolling through the net to find like minded people that work from home and don't have thousands of dollars worth of Festool products, you know normal everyday people who love there hobby and can relate to the everyday bloke.
This seems like my sort of blog, so please keep it up as I am sure you have a lot to offer us everyday blokes.

A dust collection system is an air quality improvement system used in industrial, commercial, and home production shops to improve breathable air quality and safety by removing particulate matter from the air and environment. Dust collection systems work on the basic formula of capture, convey and collect. Thanks.
