How I Do It: Dust Collection

Love your router table !

I’d recommend you consider purchasing a Wynn Environmental 35A cartridge filter, for your HF DC.

MUCH better dust capture AND improved air flow.

+/- a hundred bucks !

I really need to get something like this going in my shop. I was laying in bed last night, snot going everywhere, and coughing like I been smoking for years. Something like this would have to help out with all that. Plus it will help me keep the shop cleaner (I know I sweep at least once an hour… lol)

Dan:

Until you DO get some ‘proper’ dust collection going, there’s no reason to be breathing it in.

A 3M 7500 respirator with
both organic vapor cartridges AND P100 dust cartridges is comfortable, effective, and reasonably cheap.

In fact—though I have my HF DC and a JDS air filtration unit—I still use my respirator for the major dust cloud making work.

Makes a HUGE difference !

Thanks Neil… I keep some general masks in the shop all the time. The only problem is I forget about them until it is to late most the time…lol
