<DIV>Dale,</DIV>

<DIV>Good-day, mate! Just arrived from my 21+ hour flight from Sydney, Australia
and their 2007 Australian Piano Tuners & Technicians Guild conference. More
on that later after the jet lag works its way out - too much to report and too
many blokes to thank - my brain can't handle it right now - and besides, I need
to wait for ALL MY $#$&ing luggage to arrive - its somewhere between Sydney
and Brisbane as I write this from Tampa, Florida.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>I'm with Greg Newell. The best I can understand it, ClearVue Cyclone has
the best designed unit out there. It is what I have. I would not wish for
anything else. It works fantastic - way better than I had hoped for. Even
drum-sanding many board feet of ebony (think BLACK) - it separates out ALL
the dust and NO visible dust has made it to my exhaust filters. Absolutely
incredible. Sucks up everything my Grizzly 20" planer can spit out.</DIV>

<DIV>Not only does the cyclone separate seemingly ALL the dust out before the
exhaust filter, but all you need to do is empty the trash can at the base of the
cyclone - you don't ever have to empty a big bag of dust that is clinging to the
filter bag and you have to beat it and stand in a cloud of dust. It is so
totally superior. AND, having collected a bunch of dust, the cyclone is still
operating at 100% capacity - whereas the bag filter is loosing airflow capacity
as it fills. Another totally cool thing about the cyclone is that if you have a
larger shop and don't mind loosing the inside air, you can exhaust to the
outside without using any exhaust filters (my shop is small and I exhaust to the
inside with exhaust filters).</DIV>

<DIV> Hi Guys</DIV>
<DIV> Hey all great suggestions. Thanks one & all.
Where's Farrell?</DIV>
<DIV> To avoid the cost of an expensive unit would it not be
fairly effective to just put the thing outside & avoid the filter thing
altogether? WIth adequate cfm would this make sense. I work with the
doors open a lot & nice north south breeze thru the shop. Hey It's
Calif.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV> I'd love to buy a cyclone but it'll have to wait till later.
For 350 bucks it appears Grizzly & I can solve my immediate problems.
</DIV>
<DIV> Comments kids?</DIV>

<DIV>Dale,</DIV>
<DIV> We bought a Delta 4800 cfm dust collector with a 5
hp motor (around $1,600.00). It is designed to run 4 machines at once with
1200 cfm each. Now we can run the cnc machine, a buffer, sander and whatever
else at the same time without a drop in vacuum. It is one of the best
purchases we made. Good luck, Mike</DIV>

<DIV> Saw dust princes</DIV>
<DIV> The little 3/4 horse jet is refusing to provide enough suction
p[power to clear the sawdust from the new monster 20" Grizzly planer. You
guys with larger machines out there....What are you using? I will
eventually hook mine up to the Laguna 16 " & the 8
"& Jointer as well. I see that Grizzly has a 2 horse with large bags
& 2.5 micron filter.</DIV>
<DIV> Sounds like deal for $275.00</DIV>
<DIV> What say ye?</DIV>
