auction gloat

Got this grizzly unit tonight for $45 at the local monthly consignment
auction. I know it's not the best ordeal in the world, but it's better
than blowing it on the driveway from the planer.

Lest everyone forget, the proper response to a gloat is "You suck!"
So, to Steve: That is indeed a gloat. You suck!

Yes, i'll be looking to do a two stage thing eventually. Space a little
limited right now though.

There are many aftermarket 1 micron filters available. Both bag and
paper like filter (polyester spun I think) material.

Penn State, probably Grizzly for the filter bags. You need to replace
top and bottom to stop the fine stuff. I would consider just a
contractor plastic bag on the bottom, and a very good 1 micron felt
filter for the top.

I would build my own seperator... See Thien separator.

http://www.cgallery.com/jpthien/cy.htm

You can make one similar for 4" hose.

It'll stop that planer stuff :o)

I forgot to mention, check out Grizzly for one of the trash can
separator lids. It is one of the best $30 you will ever spend. In
addition to the by-product of keeping hard stuff away from the blower
impeller, you will have to empty the bag about 1/10th the amount of
times. And bag changing is fiddly.

Don't berate you deal before you get a chance to use it. I have had
it's 2hp brother for a year or two and I am very happy with it. I
have had very good luck with Grizzly products. And yes, it cleans up
after a planer very well.

Let me second this. I'm surprised how rarely I have to dump the filter bag now.
If space is an option, remember you can store metal trash cans outside until
needed. Mine sits on top of a cabinet so I don't lose floor space. Quick
disconnect fittings and flex lines make hookup simple.

If you're going to use it with your TS or a sander, get the set of 1 micron bags
or a cartridge filter as someone else suggested. I have 5 micron bags, and that
really is not fine enough to get the hazardous dust. I have a Jet 1 micron
filter mounted near the ceiling to help clean up what leaks through the bags or
what the DC misses.

Oh, before I forget.. You suck. Congrats on the buy.

Yes, it'll stop everything larger than your fist. <g>

Perhaps you'd like to invest in either a felt bag or a cartridge
filter, like an air cleaner on your car/truck.
