If you were to purchase everything brand new, I think the build would run approximately $800. The planer no problem, the table saw on the other handit is not a problem with the DC unit, it is a saw design problem.
What's a good estimate on the all-in cost? Yours looks about right to me.

I assume that a Thien will be "good enough".

LJ will not be held liable for the actions of any user. After months of researching, I decided to build my own dust collection system.
I had an absolute blast making this, and I wanted to post this as my first project on Lumberjocks. Clear editor. Make sure the actual wire is good for whatever load you have.

To me, this seems like a better solution than rolling the dust collector around to each tool. Thanks for that info Bob. I don't see it on their 'parts' store online. Start your 14-day FREE trial - and get building. If I add an Oneida super duty cyclone for 150 and canister filter for 200 or there abouts, will my dust collector be up to the callenge of pulling dust from say 6 different drops (only one at a time ) in a shop 20 feet long by 16 feet wide? I had to keep the same 22 x 33 footprint since my shop is so small.

It's the same specs as the Rikon fan but only costs $35 and shipping is free.
lumberjocks That's real helpful and I'm looking forward to picking one up this week.

I did a google search and didnt find one from Wen but did from Ricon. On the exhaust side is a Wynn Environmental 13F230NANO that is connected to a bucket. | Copyright
My guess is"no", since if you've got one why buy/build the other? Their pn is 60-200. Get instant access to over 100 digital plans available only to UNLIMITED members.
Ive been using this system for a bit now, and it is so much more convenient. http://www.woodtalkonline.com/topic/21207-harbor-freight-dc-to-cyclone/?do=findComment&comment=237686. If it can work, any advice on going about it? Paste as plain text instead, After some encouragement, I made plans and they are available on my Etsy for $10. I am a bot, and this action was performed automatically.
This is ingenious really, I am thinking about buying your plans but not sure if I am ready to plunk down over $600 yet. I certainly dig this. modification
The whole thing is on wheels, and has the same footprint as a Harbor Freight Dust Collection system (22 x 33.).

I do think this filter is going to last ages though, because it has over 200 square feet of filter and when paired with the Super Dust Deputy, barely anything goes through it anyway. One note that I'll add about the WEN impeller. Collection is quite good, so long as there is adequate area of air flow across the source of dust or chips.
impeller rikon lumberjocks hfdc constructing harbor yea maybe one day I will regret it but I have had the motor mount not hooked to anything for almost three years now without issue but it was a concern when I put mine together. I don't know about static pressure, but it did double my cfm's (at the tool). minorhero, The reason I didnt rotate the motor more is because I wanted to use the stock motor mounts to bolt into the side of cart instead of trying to design something else to hold that motor in place. I also run a short (maybe 15 foot) 6" duct along the wall, with a wye and a blast gate every 5 feet. This was an absolutely huge project for me (both physically and financially), and I bought all of the pieces over a long period of time. Repeated stops & starts in a short time might. Thanks for considering them! It's the same specs as the Rikon fan but only costs $35 and shipping is fre, Hey guys, And by running your cyclone during the rain, you can convince all the neighborhood kids to stay away from the creek, where the waterspout monster bubbles and blows!

Could i pipe my exhaust into a down spout and by the time it rains it will just was the fines out to the creek?

Ive made an update thread here for anyone who wants updated information. I was really tired of messing around with bags, and I didnt see a lot of designs that utilized a bagless design.
dust freight harbor collector upgrade lumberjocks update diy finewoodworking studiograyhouse Can you post a link to purchase the plans? I have mine on a 20a circuit, a 15a might trip every now and then.

UNLIMITED Membership is like taking a master class in woodworking for less than $10 a month. This system is entirely bagless, and has been extremely efficient so far. Anyway I am slowly modifying the saw to solve most of the problems. It is the Grizzly G0690 and for some reason the designers decided that putting the exhaust port 2 1/4" inch above the floor pan was a good idea. Please let me know if you have any other questions. To use a different tool, I just unplug the electrical and dust collection, wheel it away, wheel the new tool in place, and hook it up.
wynn I have 3 drops, the longest is 37'. I also have a 2HP Jet DC which isn't really powerful enough to pull a multi-tool ducted system. Has anyone ever done a comparison of a Thien separator vs a cyclone? I don't use the dc for small port machines, I just stick with a vacuum. However, if the area is reduced, such as when using a zero clearance insert in the tablesaw, or stepping down to a 2" port for my spindle sander, the air flow drops drastically.

Manage Consent. The most expensive items are the Super Dust Deputy, the motor, and the Wynn Environmental Filter. (I don't think many table saws have well designed DC.). Edit: ordering the impellar is as simple as Matt said, just shot them an email and they responded within an hour or so with an invoice. Latest Projects |
It's probably drawing more like 100A initially on start up. But I want to go ahead and install ducts and have a more permanent setup. I currently run a Delta 1.5 hp collector, modified to use a thien baffle separator, and vented outside.
lumberjocks Once you get the collector, cyclone, and the filter? I only needed 3 drops, to handle the larger tools, I use a ducted central vac for all of my other dc needs. I opted for a 20 gallon drum as it feels very space efficient, and I know it wont be overly difficult to move when its full.

It attaches to a Super Dust Deputy, which is connected to a 20 gallon drum.
studiograyhouse April's got a video on converting a HF dust collector into a Thien separator.
dust collector freight harbor lumberjocks This is awesome! I'll make the Thien separator when I get a round too-it. Can confirm this part (3403-022) works great on my HF 2HP dust collector (97869 I think?). homemade dust collector

To bad you can't exhaust outside.

Thanks! I'll have to install a new circuit then since I picked up that Wen impellar.
With that said, I d love to see any type of improvements/modifications on this design if anyone decides to go ahead and build one like it.

However, I see 2hp motors/dust collectors come up on Craigslist or Facebook Marketplace pretty frequently for about $50 in my area. I needed a system that had little footprint and high dust collection capacity. Etsy wont let me upload the SketchUp file, so I email that to purchasers after I am notified of the sale. I don't want to be in a situation where I have to run a dedicated 120v 20a circuit for the DC. I modified mine to a cyclone using a dust deputy.
