I'm thinking about adding a dust collection system to my small shop in
my basement. We just had a baby in May, so I'm concerned about the
extra dust in the house. Has anyone tried the 2-1/2" Clear Hose Dust
Collection Kit from Woodcraft? It's supposedly small enough to be
used with your shop vac. I've got a 6 gallon 3HP Craftsman shopvac,
not sure if that would do it or not. Let me know your opinions!

Thanks!

With a small baby in the house I would:

1. Move my shop outside of the house or
2. Discontinue woodworking altogether for a few years or
3. Spend some serious cash for a first-rate system, including an
overhead unit for the really fine stuff.

It's not worth taking a chance on causing a life-long breathing
condition for your child. BTW... congratulations!

Cheers!
