Better than the old bag. A bag is good for 1 hour.... I really
need

do something.
I figure that if I were to upgrade to a double canister 3-4 HP
set-up,
all it would do would buy a little time between dumping.

So, I'm told that a cyclone is the way to go. What do we know
about
those things?

Just about anything you want to know is there.


Some of it is useful and accurate, some of it is neither.


Care to point out the inaccuracies?

One should also consult reviews on cyclones from FWW, Popular
Woodworking, and other major magazines. And the engineers at Oneida
give free advice and very useful help in designing and planning a
system.
