Hi guys,
Im still thinking of buying this dust collector from penn state.Is 850 cfm with a 1hp motor good enough.I am a hobbiest and I will be hooking only one machine at a time.How much sawdust and chips will this unit hold before I have to change the bag?Can you re-use the bag or do you have to throw the bags out after a few fill ups?Ive never used one so I am a bit ignorant.Is this a good starter unit for me.I am thinking that If I really want to persue this hobby more I can always upgrade later.What are your thoughts?I will be using the Rigid Tablesaw,a router table,sanding table,thickness planer,etc.Will it do the trick?
