As you know, my woodworking experience & scope of work is limited compared to you guys, but whenever I run into what appears to be a "good deal" I find it hard to resist. I've been know to be a compulsive buyer at times, well not really, just like a good deal. So, I have the Dust Deputy cyclone vacuum set up on a mobile platform that services the woodworking tools individually with 4" / 2 1/2" reducer fittings to attach to the vacuum's 2 1/2" vacuum line. The vacuum rolls easilly from tool to tool, yet it is a slight nuisance to have to hookup/unhook each time I use a tool. However, I was thinking it might be nice to have more capable DC set up to serve the primary dust making tools: TS, Jointer, Router.
Just wondering if some of you have gone through this stage & what you ended up doing. Have you found a Dust Deputy lacking compared to a 4" Dust Collection At volume of woodworking do you feel it's appropriate to have a DC system? system?
Now, this has been brought on by another "Good Deal" (???). http://nh.craigslist.org/tls/3815034813.html
I realize that getting a DC is just the beginning as routing of dustwork will be required & I'm hesitant about starting something that will be a white elephant. At what point did you guys decide that you really needed a real DC system?
