I finally bit the bullet and started building an actual dust collection system. I got a Shop Fox 2 HP single stage and ordered a Wynn filter cartridge for it that is supposed to filter ~99.9% of the dust. (BTW, Dick Wynn is an absolute pleasure to deal with if you haven't)
I've got the DC located only a few feet from where the planer, jointer and table saw are located so I only needed to run a small amount of grounded flex ducting. My question is regarding the dust collection separator I'm getting ready to install.
After doing some research, I'm leaning towards sending the lid back and making my own Thien baffle separator. Has anyone done this that compare the performance of the two systems? If the separator top I have works good I'll just keep it I guess.
Also, I'm thinking about buying a Shop Fox air filtration system as well
Anybody have any advice as to whether or not this is a good investment in addition to the rest of my setup? Thanks!
