I have a feeling that I am opening a can of worms here, but here goes:
I am thinking about a dust collection system for the shop. Right now, I am just using the shopvac and I can't afford an actual system yet. I would like to go ahead and put up the pipes to start with and just use the shopvac until I can upgrade. Anyway, being on a cheap-skate budget, I was thinking about using ductwork or PVC.
Some chips escape the planer. I have to sweep under the jointer every once in a while.
Lest you be disillusioned when upgrade time comes along, with a 5HP ClearVue and 6" pipe, I have to vacuum up chips from the planer and jointer, and fine dust from the top of the bandsaw and the table saw. Nothing like before, but it ain't no panacea.
