1. High CFM (Typically 500-1500+ CFM) – Can handle large amounts of dust efficiently.
✅ Pros of a ShopVac:
1. High Suction (Static Pressure) – Great for picking up fine dust and small particles directly from a tool or floor.
How CFM Works in Each System
* ShopVac: Uses high static pressure (strong suction) but moves a low volume of air (100-200 CFM). Works best with small-diameter hoses.
* Dust Collector: Moves a large volume of air (500-1500+ CFM) but with lower suction pressure. Works best with large-diameter hoses (4” - 6” ducts).

In this short episode I am talking about 5 of the most common ways to hold down your material for use on your CNC machine. Again, I have tested all of these versions and time has proven to me the best option. Stick with me and I will get you out of the frustration zone of CNC'ing, and into the "this hobby is awesome" zone!

This is my experience in what you should buy and although I obviously recommend some brands, I also am very upfront and honest that a new CNC'ist might do best with the cheapies from somewhere like Amazon.

For people watching it to learn, I will start by saying don't get frustrated! Fusion 360 is a hard program at first, but it can literally make anything you can dream of.
These french cleat clamp holders are discussed on my website at this link. It is also where you will find the free files.

But really, makerspaces are a great tool to remove gaps between capabilities or skills. I used to us the ThinkBox at Case Western Reserve University in Cleveland. They really got me moving in my ideas for CNC. And they are almost everywhere!

I also did a quick visual on why I use the Amana Tools RC-2265 vs. the very popular Whiteside 6210. The basic idea being if you are cutting with the 6210 you have a 90 degree cutting surface basically slamming into your material. With the RC2265 the 45 degree lead in on the blades allows for a safer transition to the primary cutting surface. None of this matters a lot with MDF, but when you use your surfacing bit for say a hardwood slab, the incremental ease in of the bit makes a huge difference in reducing vibration (and possible movement) of the slab.
I am a fan of buying bits from Tools Today because of their rewards program!

This is just how I do it and have excellent results with. Since I started I have broken several bits and ruined a few work-pieces with clamps, carpet tape, Xfasten tape, etc. I have never had an issue with CA Glue and Tape.
Maybe not the fastest or most sustainable, but it works and that's all that matters to my precious exotic woods.
