My Brain said that I needed this. Actually it will help a lot with carting sawdust up the stairs. Emptying that plastic bag was always really messy, and I would allow it to get way too full. Now I parked a 20 gal trash can in the empty space of my Delta DC, and its job is to gather most all...

I've finally got round to sorting out my dust collection setup. I moved my big chip collector up into the loft space to gain more room, but that then raised the question of what to do about emptying it. Replacing those dust sacks is a big enough pain in the arse as it is without also having to...

I had a portable Jet DC. It had a Wynn filter on top of the Jet spin chamber and I was real happy with the filtration. However, I was very surprised at how much dust came out of the filter when I cleaned it. I beat it for 20 minutes and vacuumed out the inside and I still got more dust when I...

I finally added a pull-out bin for my Dust Collector Bin. One thing that I noticed is, although this system works VERY well, the dust and chips collected in the front left corner of the bin as seen in the 3rd picture. This was true even before I added the pull-out bin. The problem with that is...

I made this pre-collector for my new Delta 50-760 Dust Collector. This project is 1000% worth it, I've emptied the can 3 times and there is no more than a quart of dust so far in the Delta's plastic bag. I chose the 50-760 because it came highly recommended and has space for the collector can...

This is a project that has been on my "to do" list for several years. I finally got around to it this past winter. The construction details for the Thein came from a December 3, 2010 post on Charles Neil's old "In the Workshop" forum entitled "How to Build a Thein Dust Separator," by Pitbull...

This is the build of a dust separator. I needed something to pull the dust away from power tools that had a 2" or smaller hose attachment. My 1.5 hp, 6" hose double chamber vacumn didn't pull enough suction when necked down to the smaller diameters. I had downloaded the Bill Pentz...

As part of my yarn-spinning-related Etsy shop I made these plying templates last night. They're maple wood with 7mm holes and tung oil finish. Handspinners use them to make the yarn plying process a bit easier and less "tangley". They were surprisingly straightforward to make - I am quickly...

Attach to a tree or a fence, screw corn cobs to the 4 screws… And watch!

I built this Thein separator to go with my HF 2 HP dust collector a while ago, before I had even joined LumberJocks. I actually never ran the dust collector without the Thein separator and Wynn filter cartridge. Both have proven to be good additions. The separator takes care of 100% of the...
