I got one of those dylos particulate counters and I think everyone should get one of those. Even gentle sweeping with a broom will raise the particulate more than using a bandsaw with a good dust collection setup. For dusty jobs I can keep my mask on until the air hits a certain number I’m comfortable with. Most of the time the air in my shop is cleaner than the outside air when I run air filters. I use box fans with Merv13 filters. I can get several of them for the price of an air cleaner

To those that have no budget like myself. At least get a woodworking or painters respirator. They aren't expensive and make a HUGE difference.

Wow! I'm just now getting around to really thinking about this issue. I've basically just been agitating the dust around for about ten years with my shop vac and separator. I was about a week away from getting a 1hp dust extractor unit when I saw your video. Great info, just depressing. I just ordered a stealth mask instead. I've recently watched about a dozen videos on dust collection, but this video really helped me understand the bigger picture. Thanks.

Good overview. My shop is in my home's basement and I went with a 1 micron canister system (what I could afford) and made a simple shop air-scrubber with several MERV13 HVAC filters. The scrubber is built into the ceiling joist cavity using a HVAC duct booster fan with a 8' run of HVAC duct and has the ability to exchange the entire shop's air in about 6 minutes (filters above my work area and the outlet well away to circulate the air across the room). It stays running while I'm using my tools and leave it run for 15-20 minutes afterwards. For dusty operations I always wear a mask in the shop and try to perform sanding operations outdoors at all times. Tip for those who have shops in their house... spend the time to seal every nook and cranny on your shop and seal all HVAC ducts that pass through the space (especially the cold air returns). Last thing you want is dust creeping into the rest of the house. I also have and use a MERV15 furnace filter to ensure my home's air is good.

I'm constantly developing my dist collection system. Thanks for the excellent information. You have a great delivery for your videos. One point I'd disagree with is that in a restricted airflow situation, a dust collector moter will over heat. This may be true for a vacuum cleaner situation but it's not for a dust collector. A dust collector motor is cooled with air that's not related to the air in the dust collector system. In fact, in a restricted airflow situation, the collector motor will see a reduced load (yes, reduced load) and will therefore actually run cooler. A shopvac type system will do the opposite. A shopvac will also experience a reduced load in a restricted airflow situation but since that same air is (usually) used for cooling, the motor will heat up. Thanks for taking the time to help us understand what you've learned in dust collection. You're right, its importance can't be overstated.

They're the worst

A respirator is the final line of defense. I have the same Sawstop with the same overarm collector and the intertia of some of the dust coming off the blade escapes the suction, so dust gets onto the table, into the air and onto the floor. I have a cheap shop air cleaner cleans down to 1 micron, but I am gathering information to make a shop air cleaner that cleans to 0.3 microns.

If it is a HEPA filter then the 0.3um listed efficiency is for the maximum penetrating particle size (MPPS). This means that anything larger or smaller than 0.3 microns is captured with an even greater efficiency. Most people assume that it will let through anything smaller but that is not the case. A filter with a merv rating is slightly different but but generally merv 17 is similar to HEPA. Also important to note is that when cleaning these filters you want to back flow air through them rather than use a mechanical wiper. The wipers over time can wear holes in the material greatly reducing its efficacy. I've heard ~40psi @ ~16 inches should work. Do you have any sources on blowing dust laden air around at head height? I have heard a few channels mention this and it makes no sense to me. Air currents in the shop are probably enough to bring particulates from any height into the air you breathe.

@YouCanMakeThisToo

A question for you: how are you measuring airflow at your tools? Also, have you tested performance with and without sealing the joints? In my experience, if you are getting PVC fittings fully seated (I use a touch of automotive grease on the pipe/male-end to allow them to seat fully without cement, there is no detectable leakage, especially at the pressures that a dust collection system is operating under.

@YouCanMakeThisToo

I used an anemometer. I haven't tested.. but mines sealed and a friend has a practically identical system that's not sealed. From the dust patterns it's pretty clear his is leaking around the joints. I'd suspected that the grease you used to help fully seat the joints also sealed them for the pressures it sees. Handy side effect

On the table saw top vac cover, you can add a brush from a door sweep around it, this touches your wood but adds zero resistance, this way you get a much tighter air flow.

If it has a 6" fitting, go for it.

Did you test air volume before and after taping your joints? It's obviously helpful, but I'm not sure the benefit is worth the cost and aesthetic mess created from taping (I actually care how it all looks), but the before/after Delta is substantive, then I'll tape the joints. Also, by not taping, I can more easily disassemble and reconfigure when needed. With the 6" PVC, the fittings are pretty tight even w/o tape.

The full answer is beyond my knowledge.. but I can put you on the path. Volume and pressure are very different things in flow. What you’re asking isn’t a function of volume (cfm), but of what’s called static pressure, on larger systems that’s a rating that’s normally listed. Im unsure about static pressure needs in systems to vertically lift chips… most standards are written around cfm just because that’s the easiest to measure with an anemometer instead setting up a pitot tube. That doesn’t mean the info isn’t out there though. Hope that helps some.

What a great video, it covers all the elementary knowledge that anyone needs for good dust collection and when I do seminars I highlight the same points. 99.9% of dust extraction information on YT is total rubbish and I consider this video to be one of the few that gives the correct information if not the only one. A couple of supplementary comments, any machine that has a closed cabinet and bandsaws are the prime culprit need an air entry at least as large as the exhaust port because if no air can enter no air can be exhausted. I leave my BS cabinet door cracked open with a piece of wood others have put vents into the door itself and then leave it closed and the fact that your jointer has air leaks around the hood most probably improves the extraction and I would not fix the leaks. There is a simple recipe for good dust extraction, a 15" impeller and 6" solid pipe and all machines need 6'' ports so all machines need modifying unless the machine has two 100mm ports into a 6" duct. If a 6" duct is reduced anywhere including the machine port the maximum flow possible in the duct is dictated by the smallest pipe or port. A tip on the overhead TS guard/hood, remove the short pane of perspex at the end of the hood furthest away from the operator and watch the performance of the hood jump by a lot. The extractor can only pull what can get into the hood and if the hood is on the material being cut or close to it then not much make up air can get into it and if the front of the hood has an air entry the hood can be hard down on material being cut and no debris will be released through the opening. I can write pages of this stuff all learned over many years of selling and advising in the industry so I had better stop here.

I’m not very smart, but I am not buying the starvation theory as explained here. How would it make any difference to drop six down to four, split it and connect to two machines, versus split it six, then drop it down to two fours? It’s the same thing. They only way this could make sense is if both machines were being used. For most people, only one would be, and would make no difference what size pipe ISN’T being utilized after the split. Six inch, closed off pipe behaves exactly the same as four inch closed off pipe.

A point of view that is no concern of anyone but yourself. It is your health so carry on and see what happens in the long term with your own health. Should you invest in an expensive crash helmet or a cheap one, the answer is found when you come off the bike.

The larger the pipe the less velocity with the same vacuum source. Why is it better to run larger pipe so the chips go slower ? If your machine is 4” you run 4”not 6 then 4. A 90 is equal to about 20’ of developed length so the smallest pipe that you can get away with is best when there are a lot of bends. The flex pipe is the worst as far as killing airflow. Your shop looks like the septic system crawled out of the ground and is trying to get into all your tools. Get some paint on those pipes lol.

The friction cost is a lot higher in smaller pipe, it requires more static pressure to pull and big dust collector tend to be low pressure. My collector has a 6" inlet. I pull way more air at the end of that running 6" pipe and downsizing at the port to 4", than if I ran 4" pipe the whole way. Also, most of my machines have dual 4" ports. And two 4" ports equal about the same cross section as a 6" pipe. If I ran a 4" pipe and split it in two, I'm halving my air flow to each port. Run 6" and split to dual 4" and I'm maintaining air flow. When painting my pipes helps me pay bills I'll get the paint and put my time in it.
