Finally getting started on setting up some real dust collection. I bought a 50 foot hose from PSI woodworking and now need to setup the port and connections on my machines to be able to move the dust collection around. The Harbor Freight 2 HP Dust Collector works a whole lot better if it's hooked up to the machines!
Had to take a break in the middle to answer one of my most received questions: "Why do you have both a shop vac and a dust collector. What's the difference, and when do you use which one."
SPOILER! It works out pretty well. Very nice to have good dust collection on the bandsaw in particular.
