with these or will they get sucked up into the impeller |

Penn State makes a doodad that allows you to use a trash bag in your
DC can: http://www.pennstateind.com/Merchant...gory_Code=CYAC I've never used it personally so I can't comment on it. Layne On 3 Feb 2005 11:10:35 -0800, "Joey" wrote: Thanks didn't know about Delta. BTW do you know if trash bags be used with these or will they get sucked up into the impeller |

I've looked at these types of units and for the life of me I can't understand why they cost so much! In the Dust Boy's case it's over $500. I believe Delta's and Jet's are in the $400 neighborhood. I'm considering just making one of my own from a blower and filter parts. -- Owen Lowe and his Fly-by-Night Copper Company ____ "Sure we'll have fascism in America, but it'll come disguised as 100% Americanism." -- Huey P.

Ditto what Owen said and the only thing I can think of is that in the past the blowers for drum top collectors have always been made from cast aluminum. I know the recent offering have/are been stamped steel and they really should be as cheap as dirt, or dust even. I'm considering just making one of my own from a blower and filter parts. As am I. I was lucky enough to find a 1 horse Cincinnati Blower that looks like it's destined to be a dedicated sander collector (sitting right next to the machine/short pipe run. UA100 |
