gfadvm, Mike, pete57, ChefHDAN: thanks for the advice. It sounds like perhaps I should just start out with a short section of 4” hose or pvc duct and see how things go. I’m looking forward to a much less dusty basement :)

redryder: perhaps I overstated the case – what I was trying to say was that I’ve read up a lot and have decided to take dust control seriously. From what I’ve read not all dust is created equal – most household dust is simply dead skin, something our lungs have presumably learnt to deal with over time, whereas fine wood dust can be far more damaging.
