Anyone know a good supplier for one? I want to put one on my vacuum table.

the only complaint about those is the cost. they are way overpriced for such a simple thing. if you want to save 300 make one out of a shopvac hepa filter and a wooden box.
I don't use any filter as my spoil board filters all the dust. I have been running my vacs for 8 years and they still look like new inside. I do reverse the air flow every so often to clean out the spoil board
I don't have a filter and I run a blower.
I'm not sure how anything could get into the plenum and into the vacuum tubing? The mdf spoilboard won't pass anything through but air.
I've often considered a vacuum filter but unless I'm missing something... how would anything get to the pump?
I have a blower with an inline filter. I inspect the filter regularly and have seen debris in the can pretty often. On one occasion there was a lot of debris. In that case I think it got there due to a miscut which cut to deep into the spoil board. However, if you are in the habit of screwing parts down into the spoil board I think you increase the chance of debris being pulled through those holes. For the amount I paid for the blower the cost of an inline filter to protect it, even if it seems overkill, makes sense.

When do you remove your spoil board? Do you remove it often? If not you can blow out the pipes
I use no filters either I run lighthouse motors I have always thought the spoil board was the filter. No problems in 8 years of use.
