Cheap dust collector

[ss600r]

I'm pretty sure this is the 1hp mini dust collector HF sells for $99. Might work ok with a small shop if you can find a decent bag. HF lists the bag it comes with at 35 microns.

Perhaps Rockler's 5 micron bag for their wall mounter DC system would work. Costs about $30 + shipping, so this might drive cost up beyond effectiveness.

Is this what you're talking about?

Why is there a Woodtek sticker on a Central Machinery dust collector ? :icon_scra

According to the pic on the box, it looks like the HF ones are red. That does look like Woodtek green on the open one. I dunno if something fishy is going on here and I don't know if its possible to ensure you get a Woodtek one if you order and have it shipped.

Heck, i don't even know if in this case Woodtek is better. I'm just assumed HF stuff is cheaply made.
