  1. Dog house out of pallets

    Catching up with older projects. The roof is hinged for easy cleaning. It is big enough I can sit in it when I have done something wrong. This sucker is heavy it took three of us to carry it to position.
  2. Harbor Freight Dust Collector + Super Dust Deputy

    I finally was able to upgrade to a real dust collector! My shop vac has been a workhorse, but the additions of a jointer, planer and bandsaw have pushed it to the limit. It was well past time for a bigger sucker! I ordered a Super Dust Deputy, 10 feet of 4" flex hose, and the Long Ranger...
  3. Super Dust Deputy Cart

    This design was inspired by DadoDog's Dust Deputy cart for his shop vac and the Super Dust Deputy setup he built. I bought a 1.5hp Magnum dust collector with the bag filter. I also bought a super dust deputy and an Oneida hepa filter upgrade. Everything is 5/8" sanded pine plywood and 2×4's. The...
  4. media center with bookshelves

    Had some extra time around the shop, so we decided to build this. Its made out of poplar and mdf and finished it with some dunn edwards paint. The top is walnut and finished with polyurethane. Not really my style of cabinet but I think someone will like it. Thanks for looking!!!
  5. It's Alive - 2 stage cyclone dust collector

    One of the biggest complaints I had with my previous shop was the Laguna C-Flux dust collector. It had lots of bells and whistles and was really expensive but was lacking in the basic necessities such as air flow and vacuum. With that in mind, I resolved to install a better dust collector for...
  6. Dust Collection System

    I just moved to a new location and am setting up my shop in a detached garage. I converted my HF dust collector to a 2-stage unit using the Oneida Super Dust Deputy. I used 4" PVC along one wall with 5 drops and a total of 10 connections using a double wye branch. The PVC is mounted to the...
  7. 2 Stage Dust Collector Mod

    I blogged about this yesterday here - but made a few more improvements today. The quick specs: - 1.5 HP Craftsman DC - PSI Pleated Filter - easy bolt on - Oneida Super Dust Deputy - PSI heavy duty 5" and 6" flex tubing - HF remote switch - Free cardboard drum from work (30 gallon I think)...
  8. Modifying a Harbor Freight Dust Collector

    This is my version of modifying a Harbor Freight Dust Collector and adding a Super Dust Deputy. The cabinet is made from 3/4 inch OSB subflooring and the dust collection drawer front is 3/4 inch OSB subflooring. The drawer itself is made of 3/16 inch project plywood. The main cabinet and...
  9. Dust Collector Cyclone Mod (Yet again)

    Got a single stage dust collector that makes you sad every time you hear a chip run through that motor? Solve all of the worlds problems by souping that sucker up with a two stage cyclone and canister filter mod! I'm sure you've all seen this many times over but when doing my research I didn't...
  10. Bottle Stoppers

    Woods used are: spalted hackberry, mullberry, spalted maple, cherry and peach. Stoppers are from Ruth Niles.
  11. Power Tools, Hardware and Accessories
    From what I read adding a cyclone before the impeller decreases efficiency (cfm or suction?). If the goal is to maximize dust collection and keep it out of the pleated filter (wynn nano filter) what would happen if I placed the impeller first and fed the output of the impeller into the input of...
  12. Off Topic Coffee Lounge
    Throughout the year, we have many pine cones that need to be removed, before we can mow the lawn. Rather than rake them, and if I get to them right after they fall, a shop vac can make short work of them. However, if they sit, they start to open and their increased size clogs the vac quickly...
  13. Power Tools, Hardware and Accessories
    So I recently decided that I needed to upgrade my dust collection in my shop. I wanted something that could be adequate for a small shop but that had a really good micron filter on it. Every machine I looked at with a cyclone separator and fine micron filter was $1000+ dollars. After looking...

  15. Power Tools, Hardware and Accessories
    I have a Powermatic 2000 table saw and a delta 2HP dust collector. I just added the super dust deputy cyclone unit and notice a drastic reduction in CFPM. has anyone added another dust collector blower back-to-back to increase the CFM? I also added a split and homemade 4" dust collector to...
  16. Focus on the Workspace
    I am looking at adding a dust collector to my woodshop with the Super Dust Deputy. I was originally going to by the Harbor Freight 2HP unit and then add the Dust Deputy and vent it to the outside. Are there options to just buy a blower unit that I could hook up to the Dust Deputy rather than...
  17. Focus on the Workspace
    I am building a new dust collector for my workshop and have a question about the placement of the blower. Here are the parts that I am working with: - 3 HP Reliant NN-830 - Wynn 35BA222NANO Cartridge Filters - I got 2, one for each side of the output - Oneida Super Dust Deputy XL - 30...
  18. Power Tools, Hardware and Accessories
    Greetings all! Been lurking on forum for a bit, but this is my first post. I am doing an extensive remodel on our house and decided to get serious with my tools to achieve the professional result I seek. I just bought a 3hp Reliant NN 830 with 220v 15a 3450rpm motor. It is setup for dual...
  19. Power Tools, Hardware and Accessories
    I am in the process of building a small 2 stage system using 4" SDR and a Super Dust Deputy. I found that a Fernco 1059-44 works perfectly to fit a 4" SDR fitting to the 5" SDD inlet. Fits like a glove. I've read a lot of posts full of people who have had trouble figuring out ways to adapt...
  20. Safety in the Woodworking Shop
    I am a big believer in strong dust collection in my shop and with my recent move from a large shop to a new much smaller shop, my previous ducted and piped dust collection system was way to big. I'd already invested in a Jet 1100 dust collector, and added secondary filtering in my old shop by...
