650 vs 1200 CFM for Dust Collection Questions
Hi Wreckers.
Close to starting my dust collection system 1) 18x18 Shop. I expect longest runs to be 10 feet. 2) Multiple machines hooked up, but only one at a time - Mitre Saw - Table Saw - Router in table - Drill Press - FUTU Planar, Jointer, etc. 3) Planning to run a main 4 inch pipe, with blast gates to sub pipes. 3) Im in Canada - note the currency! Im torn between a 650 cfm vs 1200 cfm machine. Im looking at a) $229.00 - King 1HP 650CFM: http://www.kingcanada.com/Products.htm?CD=19&ID=893 b) $379.00 - King 2HP 1200CFM: http://www.kingcanada.com/Products.htm?CD=19&ID=895 (The $200 price difference is alot imo.) This post has a response from Robin Lee stating that 1200cfm is overkill has swayed me as well: http://groups.google.com/group/rec.w...518b8c1585920f Given all this above, here are my questions! 1) Given my specs above what would you reccomend - 650 or 1200 cfm? 2) Has anyone had any experience with the King Dust Collections? 3) If you have a similar 650 or 1200 machine - how do you feel about it - mish you had more, more than you need? Also note - the money I save on the smaller system could be put into a high quality 1micron bag, which I think might help me more in the long run. Thanks for all your response! |
