New dust collection system

[zeykr]

Works better than any other dust collection I've tried, at least when I can get it to work.

She looks like she's having fun therefor child labor laws do not apply! My daughter (now 11 years old) loves coming out to the shop to help daddy. It's a great bonding time! Enjoy it while you can and don't blink because it doesn't last long.

I have a benchtop shopbot 24" x 32" table. Are there dust collectors like yours available in a suitable size?

Yes, they come in benchtop size also, but require an additional accessory:

Steve,
My shop is always a mess, luckily this shopbot is 7' wide, so usually some room for tabletop storage.

Ken the only problem with this type of dust collection system is that as it ages it costs far more to operate. At this age it might cost .25 cents to operate, at about age 10 it starts to cost about $1, by age 13 it will cost at least $5 and by 16 it will cost you.....a car!
And if you live another 10 years you will have a grandchild/great grandchild to take her place! and then it's back down to .25cents

I have that same tape as the on your have in the pile on the machine.

Wow! Ken now thats a nice system. One Question though Is it
a central set up or do you need one for each machine?

Looks like it could also be used as an automatic tool changer...
