Dreaming of a shop #3: Dust collection
I spent almost an hour today at the Oneida Air manufacturing facility hear in Syracuse, NY. It was very informative. My current DC system is an older Oneida Air cyclone 2hp unit with dual bag filtration. Here is a picture of it installed in the old shop. Sorry it’s sideways, it is not that way in original. I was interested in upgrading the unit to a cartridge filter. Well it can be done, however, the unit will be maxed out at the farthest point in the shop. That is with only one blast gate open at a time. So if I ever wanted to upgrade to larger planer or drum sander the DC would need upgrading as well. If any helpers were to stop by I can’t run a second tool eit...
