That would be true if I had a lot of velocity to begin with:-) I have an old Delta dust collector and it is pretty weak by dust collection standards. I have elbows in the drum that spin the dust around in a cyclonic motion and this combined with the under powered collector works pretty good. I get only very fine dust in the collector itself. I use the 4" flexible hose so I can move the drum easily when needed. All my tools can hook into this thing but I keep the Table saw, Jointer and sander hooked up all the time. If you can bear it, make some belt guards, too. I'm thinking about that. Haven't come up with a good design thats easy to make and looks decent. I made this bench so I can set stuff between the saw and jointer, so I really need to get going on a guard. Any ideas? -- Jack http://jbstein.com |

For a spiffy look, melamine faced masonite, and then belt-sand the corners to a bit of a bevel. Or belt sand to smooth and paint. Nail the Masonite onto the pine, arrange some screws to hold the guard in place. Cut slots as needed to fit over shaft(s) Horrible ascii art: |XXXXXPINEXXXXXXX| | | | \_/ | | P | | u | | l | | l | | e | | y | ==Shaft======== | P | u | | l | | l | | e | | y | |BL | /-\ | |OCK| | Benchtop---------------------- -- Cats, coffee, chocolate...vices to live by |

Yeah, but it's been collecting dust since around 1956 and came with the jointer when bought from Delta. I guess I could sue them when the house burns down:-) "Jack Stein" wrote in message ...
