Project Information

Completed the shop makeover by enclosing the ceiling with 1/4 inch lauan plywood .and adding PVC dust collection to my existing system. the rolling carts seen holding my router table and planner are just a few of the carts that have made one is used for a side table for my table saw and the next one will be holding my new benchtop Jointer. Having these tools on portable stands allows me to work safely and dust free . Plans for the rolling table are available from Woodcrafters Journal

Chris K believe it gets dirty. However since I changed to 4 in PVC and a 2 1/2 hp vacuumed system cleanup goes a lot faster

Always nice to do upgrades that make it easier to work. Speaking of such, I need to build one of those air filters like you have hanging up there

The air cleaner is made from 3/4 in MDF, a standard two fan window fan. The fan is permantly mounted one third of the distance from the front to halfway. Behind the fan there are two sets of stops for the filters. The first and second stage filters are made of reuseable blue filter material. This is attached to frames that slide in the stops. The filter in front of the fan is a filtrate filter I only have to change it every two months.
If you check out my projects you will see the air filter in detail. Happy sawdust
