Are there any problems with using round cement form tubes for the bulk of your dust collection ducting? They are 1/4" wall thickness made from a heavy fiber/paper material. They are very smooth inside.
They are a fraction of the cost of spiral metal tubing. An 8" diameter X 4 foot long piece is about $7.00 where a metal tube is about $25.00 for a 5 foot length.
I build guitars and collect mainly fine sanding dust from a drum sander, spindle sander, random orbit sander. I use a jointer about once every two weeks and my planer once every few months.
