They even carry leg sets. ;-)

Well what could go wrong with a steel stand?Â* I might buy one of
those if I needed one.Â* ;~)

Personally you couldn't give me one of those stands.
If you're a woodworker, particularly a hobbyist with limited space,
why not build your own?

Not be argumentative but the materials to build one, coupled with the
time to make it is probably going to cost me more than the HF model.

Ya gets what you pay for. If you can't afford a few construction grade
2x's to build a tool stand/cabinet, then you probably can't afford to do
much in your shop other than stare at your tools.

I understand a commercial shop might have a lots of space, and little
time to waste not producing money items, but that applies to few, if any
in this newsgroup.

Well, I have little time because I'm still employed but I have all the
space I need. I have about 2000ft^2 of unfinished basement. ;-)

I have enough room that none of the tools has to be moved. I do move
the lunchbox planer and drum sander to get them closer to the dust
collector.

You just need to get some more "flex" hose. LOL. I use a single 30'
flex hose.

I would have thought that there would be nothing left after 30' of
flex. I have some 4" PVC but no time to put it in right now. I'll
have to run it high for some lengths to get it over doors. I'd like
to do 6" but the fittings are ridiculous.


Nothing left? Do you mean suction?
Suction is great. I do have a Jet 1100 CFM with canister filter CD though.

Yes, suction. Flex hose has a lot of resistance. Some tools need a
*lot* of suction or don't bother. SMCSs and lathes are biggies. Even
a table saw can use a lot of air to grab as much of the dust off the
blade as possible.

I will agree that a flex hose has resistance but I use the more HD ones
that are relatively stiff. With a 15" planer on the end of 30' hardly a
speck is not captured.

And Longer pipe with 90 and 45 degree bends, and blast gates are
probably worse.

I have been very happy with this set up for 15 or so years.



And actually I use 3, 10' flex hoses with 2 couplings.

It keeps up with the planer and now jointer. Think no leaking joints
and eased bends instead of sharp 90 or 45 degree bends.

And So that I do not have to work around 30 feet of hose I go straight
up from the DC to the 3rd car garage rail. And along a 2x4 mounted on
that tail to the the opposite rail.
Then back to the floor. That uses up approximately 20' of hose. If I
need longer I lower the hose from the 2x4 to go straight to the floor.
Then I can go 30' out from the DC.

Nothing is permanent except for 30' of hose attached to my DC.
