I need to do a set of 1940s exterior emergency staircases and I’ll be using “Fortress Infinity” composite decking.
I’ll be using my chop saw to buck the boards to length and to set the mitres when doing the picture framing, but I also have to cut the material lengthwise so there’s no gaps. It’s a rain issue underneath, and in Vancouver, it rains. Under the decking people enter and exit the building.
On each board, I need to cut 1/4” off the top leading edge and the same 1/4” on the opposite side, bottom part.
My question is about dust collection and static charge.
I have a 2 hp cyclone, but I’m connected to the saw via a corrugated hose. No exterior ground along the length, except for the internal metal coil. But because of the final look, I need to use the table saw and then transport the boards to the site.
It’s a sawstop. Too heavy to put in my wife’s Odyssey.
How do I tame this static electricity beast?
