JDS Dust Force Canister for Grizzly G1029?

[Hoa Dinh]

I have a Grizzly G1029 and wonder if I can retrofit it with the JDS Dust Force Canister. I think (need to re-measure) the G1029 needs bag/filter of 20" diameter but I can not find the dimensions of the JDS Dust Force Canister anywhere.

I sent an email message to JDS but am not sure when (or if) I'll get a reply.

How about this. I have it on my G1029 recommended by Bill Crofutt of Grizzly.

Thanks, Bart. I realize the Grizzly canister will fit.

But the JDS canister is $60 less ($120 vs $180, shipping included).

Yesterday I sent JDS an email message on this and today received a reply from John McConegly:

" The inside diameter of our canister is 19-3/4 inches. The outside is 10-1/4 inches. The canister will make your collector a little top heavy. Do you have 2 legs or 3 legs supporting the drum? Our kit includes a support bracket which probably will not attach to your collector. Use caution when rolling your collector if you do not have extra support for the drum/canister. If you need more assistance, call me at 1-800-480-7269."

(He wrote "10-1/4 inches" but in a follow-up message corrected to "20-1/4 inches").

Two good things come out of this:

1. The JDS canister fits the Grizzly G1029 :) .

2. More importantly, JDS is one of the companies that reply to (potential) customers' messages :) .
