Hi All:
I hve been reading and looking at the verios shop set up, and some of you have some really impressive work areas.
I am in the process of converting my office into a shop.
Area will be just shy of 24 x 24.
I noticed that several of you have a piping system, I figure to collect the dust from the various power tools.
Can you expand in the items used.
I will have a 10'' craftsman table saw, an older shopsmith( once I restore it), and some smaller bench tools, sander, band saw, etc.
I would like to put a system in place, such that when you power up a tool, the vaccum system will power up, and keep me from spending half my time cleaning up.
Thanks in advance for your time, and input.
Terry
I use the Delta AP400 with a remote on/off. The runs are all 6" PVC pipe with an aluminum gate at each end. All the gates have 6" flex hose going to the machines. I open the gate at the machine being used. I can also connect a 2" hose at any gate to use as a hand vac. In one corner of my shop I have an attachment that goes to the floor and allows you to push swept material into it.
