Hi,
I just moved from California to Delaware. Part of my property in Delaware is a 30 foot by 30 foot pole barn that I am outfitting as my WW shop. I am psyched - considering I had my shop in a low ceiling 2 car garage in CA. My ceilings are now all above 11' and peak at 18; . I have a pretty typical shop setup - Sawstop with two 4" dust ports, a Dewalt 735 planer, a Jet 6" long bed jointer, a Bosch Miter Saw station, a Laguna 14" Band Saw with two 4" ports, and a Supermax 25/50 sander.. I'd also like a drop at my assembly table for small tool sanding, a Jet OSS, and other tools.
I have been away from the dust collection world for twenty plus years and I am not well versed in what the best way to go are. When I last was paying attention, the use of PVC was verbotten, all duct was metal, with spiral duct ruling the duct class war. That seems to have changed considerably. Sparking and grounding the system was a large issue back then - I don't see much evidence of that being a big deal, but I may not be looking in the right places.
Let me know what the best way to proceed would be as far as getting recommended vendors and systems. I need all the equipment, from DC to duct work, blast gates and how much flex duct is OK?
Thanks All - I hope to hear from you and be part of the group ! Appreciate any help that may come!
Joe
