Dust Control

[Charleston]

Slip has a little unit he ws using at PlugFest. Did not seem to make much noise and was pretty mobile. The one thing I really liked is it's small.

Forgot to add its the same unit that Joe(Rockfish9) has it can be wired 110 or 220.Their are pics of it in one of hist shop post.

Here's a picture of the unit, I have swapped out the stock 35 Mic bags for 1 Mic bags, switched it to 220V , I also have a ceiling mounted Penn Industries 650 CFM air cleaner fitted with a smoke filter( I dont have a pic on my 'puter of anymore)... there is less dust in my shop than there is in the house....

Grizzly has a 2 hp on sale now. Was 525.00 is on sale for 425.00. Cleanable 2.5 micron filter, 220v but only "74 dB . Shipping from Muncy is 69.00. I may try to sell my new delta so I can get this one. It's quiet !! and, I think, around 1700 cfm.

I just bought the 708636 remote model from Jet. They just came out with that model (was 626) and they claim it is a 1 micron canister filter. It was a bit pricey. Most all of my woodworking tools I have gotten for free or very little $$ so I figure I am ahead of the game.....

I've been looking at getting one of these for a couple years now and hemmed and hawed over them and finally settled on this one. It really rocks! I had thought of getting one of the cheaper models with about the same cfm and upgrading the bags to canister etc, but when you add it up and put your time into it you have spent quite a bit of $$. The canister has something like 12000 square inches of filter if I remember right. I would highly recommend the remote. It makes it really easy. I can turn it on from over 100 feet away down my driveway. I just leave it in my pocket and tap my leg when I want to turn it on. It all goes together well, sturdy and easy to put the bags in with its snap ring set up. Not too bad on the noise level. It is loud, but doesn't blow you away.

It also has the handle on the canister that you turn to knock dust down to the bag. I really like that feature. I've turned and sanded about 30 plugs on it so far and cleaned the canister and there was barely any dust stuck to it. From what I have read, it can go a while before it needs cleaning.

Amazon had the 708626 model for a while around 500 but all of a sudden it has shot up by 100.00+ all over the online sites. I was able to get it for a bit less with a 50 rebate from one of the vendors from jet's web site.

For a simple set up I would use a shop vac.
