Thank you for specifically calling out what sort of PVC pipe to use. I had heard people talk about the different types of PVC on KZread but they didn't go into detail. Appreciate it!

Nothing better than a plumber explaining the best fittings for aerodynamic flow and economical savings. Thanks for taking the time. This will save me $$$ on unnecessary fittings and irreversible designs.

I’m setting up a small new shop. Getting ready to install a dust collection system. Of all the videos I have watched, yours is by far the best. Thanks for sharing your expertise. Have a great day.

100% agree on using hand adjustable pipe clamps where you change stuff around occasionally

I have watched more dust collection videos than I care to admit to. Your video has got to be the very best at explaining the fittings and the types of pipe and fittings needed. In addition your accent reminds me of my childhood living in long island!

Finally!! Someone who knows how to make dust collection equipment and piping work with PVC plumbing pipe! THANK YOU!!! 👍👍 I bought a bunch of fittings from Woodcraft, but they don't all work together. Like you said, you need special connectors etc. to make them work, but then where do you get the correct pipe? You answered all my questions in this video! I'm going to Ace tomorrow to pick up some sewer drain pipe and fittings. Hopefully it all assembles as easily as you make it look. thanks again!

Just built out my shop dust system using your advice. Worked great! Thanks for taking the time to share.

Great video. This is the best I have found for demystifying the challenges of dust collection pipe fitting. You deserve a medal. I greatly appreciate the time you spent doing this. Thanks.

Most informative video I've seen on dust collection ducting. Thanks for all the tips.

Best dust collection pipe video on the webs, great work.

Thanks for making sense of the many complicated choices. Great well executed video.

Hands-down best video on dust collection I've seen. Can't wait to see some of your other videos. Keep it up!

Such a thorough video! Great job of going over all the options and tips. Fast talker and no BS. Good teacher.

Still in the research phase of designing my DC system. This is by far one of the best videos on the subject. Thanks!

Wow. You manage to say a lot more here than most vids on the subject - and it's easy to take in. Thank you for taking the time here. I think you'll save me several times the amount of time when I get round to doing mine very soon.

Another incredible video mike. You take your time to explain what you have and how to help us out there learn from you. Keep these videos coming

Best video out there explaining dust collection piping ty

Mike, I was completely lost on how to set up dust collection in my shop, you answered all my questions, one by one, thank you sir!!!

A spot on video for both newbies and experienced shop hands. Your explanation, language and knowledge make each video a great experience.

Mike thank you so much for answering a lot of questions I had re dust collection fittings and piping. Best video I seen to date, very informative!!!

Hi Mke, I came across your video and wanted to thank you for sharing. Your explanation is one of the best I've seen so far on the subject. Thanks again.

Great info. I used the same green pipe. Easy to work with. Glad I found this video before I bought my dust gates. Very good info.and ideas.

Mike this video really opened my eyes to some dust collection alternatives. Nice job and much appreciated.

Thank you so much for the great video! I'm building my first dust collection system now and this was exactly the information I needed to understand the SDR fittings plus blast gates.

Very nicely done and very detailed too. This is just what i needed to know, for setting up ducting for my new Laguna 3hp C-Flux dust collector system. I looked at other ducting products for vacuum system and the prices were astronomical for ducting compared to using sewer piping. Thank you!

Mike once again a great video tutorial, very helpful and easy to understand. I look forward to viewing the grounding video and then applying this this system to my shop. Thank you!

this video is AMAZING thank you dont EVER take this video down lol working on my shop Dust collection system..this helped A LOT cant wait to actually start

Excellent video! Setting up dust collection for sand blast cabinet and this was very helpful

This is by far the BEST dust collection video I have seen. I am finally getting around to plumbing my dust collector as opposed to moving the hose from tool-to-tool. I wish I could go overhead but am restricted by heating ducts and an I-beam. I'll have to go near the floor.

So glad I found this tutorial on DC ductwork. Thanks!

Thanks for this! Very helpful.

DUDE. you are a life saver. This answers any/all questions I had about this. Other videos just show the build but doesn't answer questions/concerns. Thank you so much.

Great advice, thank you sir! I took some valuable notes I'll take to the store.

Nice job Mike. Lots of great tips for my dust collection project this labor day weekend. Thanx!!

Awesome video Mike ! Helped me make my decision on which way to go. Much appreciated !

Thanks for the info, and your detailed explanations.

Fantastic job! You answered my questions before I could ask them.

Mike, great video. Very informative from topic to topic. I will use this as my goto for building my DC system. My shop is a bit broken up so it will be a little complicated.. Thank you for caring and sharing.

Mike great video of the dust collection pipe and your extensive knowledge I am like other people i'm sure a DIYer turned woodworker and want to make my dust collection right from the start and you have given great ideas for my shop so thank you some much sir.

What can I say that's not already said 😆. I appreciate you taking the time to explain in such detail the best methods of joining dust collection pieces together.

That was very informative; I appreciate you sharing your experience of what works and doesn't. It saves me from purchasing components that may not work as well as I want. I have a 1.5 hp Onedia cyclone I've used for 20+ years along with four and five inch hoses to connect to my machines. I'd prefer a more permanent installation. This may get me started on that.

D2729 thin wall PVC pipe. I don't glue any joints. I put a short piece of mylar powder coating masking tape on joints to secure them. Mylar/silicone tape doesn't leave adhesive residue later. Then stretch -wrap joint to make air tight. Makes modifications easy later.

Thank you so much! I am about to do this here in South Africa in my home shop. Learnt a lot and will apply. We work in mm not " and we can't buy blast gates locally, so I will make my own. God bless.

Great video and perfect timing for me. I need to replace my main line hose because it sags, like you mentioned, but it also has developed small holes too. It leaks like a sieve.

VERY Helpful video...thank you!!

Great video Mike. I, like you, was a plumber for ten years. I left plumbing and now own a plumbing supply company. Two years ago I put in a dust collection system using 3” sch 40 foam core. I ran it from my shop vac with a 30 gallon barrel to make it 2 stage. Worked good but all the adapter fittings and clamps cost a small fortune. Last week I got a new Grizzly dust collector with a 6” inlet so I tore out all the old system and ran 4 & 6” SDR35 pipe and fittings. I’m not a fan of the plastic gates so I made my own from plywood. I also did not glue it, but rather used 3” foil cold weather duct tape. That worked really well. I also used galvanized clips, although they are bigger that the SDR pipe. I wrapped them with rubber pipe insulation which made them snug and also doubles as an anti vibration if need be. It’s up and running and works great. I’m doing the grounding system this weekend. I only wish I had found your video sooner but that’s the way it goes.

Steven W. Great to meet you, thank you very much for the comment

Great Video ,thanks for sharing.

The grease will help seal a bit too! Works great Also remember, this system may be in use for 25 years or more, so try to give a damn about the quality of your installation. There's no need to waste money on pipe or fittings that are not necessary to your shop, but also don't cut corners! Make this the best build you can!

Great information!

Great video!!

Good video. I'm just finishing up my system and I've watched a lot of videos trying to glean all the tips I can. The one thing I've only heard here is putting the PVC fittings together with just a little grease. Great idea. It does a few things. 1) It lets the fittings slide together easier and fully seat. 2) It makes them easier to take apart if you need to change or add to the system. 3) I think it actually helps seal the system. I used a little bearing grease on each connection and two gutter screws to hold them together. I would say none of my joints leak at all. Putting the grease on the male part pushes any extra grease out but then since it's a vacuum system any small voids in the joint will draw in a little grease and seal it. Well that's my theory anyway.

Thank you very informative

Thanks Mike
