I know this is a really old thread but are you still around and do you have more pictures of how you hooked both unites together. I have had some thoughts about doing this exact same thing.

Thanks everyone, I have decide to pass on this sander as I could not find a lot of reviews and I it must not be very popular as no one on several forums as spoke up with their opinion. So again...

Thanks good to know

Thanks, Right now I only know what the owner has told me. I am suppose to go look at it tomorrow and hear/see it run. I am pretty sure that I can get it for $600 maybe a little less.

I am looking at a used Shop fox W1854 Drum Sander. It looks good and was told that it had very few hours on it. I have tried to research it online to check out some reviews but haven’t been able to...

Ok I am pretty much done setting up my dust collection system and wanted to try and take some CFM measurements for my system. I watched alot of videos and was also able to borrow an anemometer over...

Any update to this thread, I just pick up my first lathe and looking for some blanks.

Ok so not much has changed over the last few days, I ended up just putting a clear bag under my filter for now. I decided that I wanted to put a remote switch on the Dust collection system, however...

Thought that I would show how the Cyclone went together. The original cyclone came with the cyclone body, 15g barrel and clamping ring. I wanted to increase my barrel size. I was going to use a 55g...

I was going to build a remote on/off switch for my Dust collector this weekend but ran out of time. I did however purchase all of the parts and pieces, so hopefully it will happen this week.
I was...

Ok so I made alittle headway on the shop over the last 4 or 5 days. I was able to get pretty much all of the pipe and fittings to run the system for free so I decided to mount the dust collector on...

Ok so over the last couple days a had alittle time to work on my DC system. I filter and motor have been mounted (meed to add some safety straps to the motor), the cyclone is complete (went with a...

Ok so I made alittle headway on the shop this weekend. I was able to get pretty much all of the pipe and fitting to run the system for free so I decided to mount the dust collector on the wall. ...

I purchased a Harbor Freight dust collector and intend to upgrade the impeller. I am having a serious issue getting the stock impeller off. I have never done this before and do not want to mess up...

The ceiling run will probable be some where around 25-30 ft of ridged pvc or approx. 15 or so ft of flex.

Another question I have a oneida cyclone 4 in. kit that comes with the 15 gallon barrel....

Ok have a question, My table saw will be located close to the middle of my shop. If I mount my dust collector on the wall which would be better, to run the piping along the ceiling and down or to...

Jim, I totally agree about the CFM's which is why I listed them as advertised parameters. I am still debating about leaving it mobile or mounting to the wall.

I have been really thinking about mounting my dust collector to the wall. I have an area above my compressor the filter and bag should be able to mount which would only leave the cyclone sitting on...

So I have not really decided yet if I am going to leave the dust collector on the mobile base or attach it to the wall.

I have however purchased a dust collector. I did quite a bit of thinking...

Thanks Tom, Yea that Grizzly looks nice and I have already decided that whatever DC I get will either have or be upgraded to the pleated filter.

I totally understand about the shop layout changing...

So I have been thinking about dust collection. I guess you could say that I have never really had any. I have always pretty much hauled my tools to the driveway, did my thing and then cleaned up...

Ok so I have broken down most of the router table. I decided to try and clean this up without removing the table top from the stand.
Here is the router table top before and after pics. it is still...

Thanks guys, Working on it now hopefully I will be able to post some updated picture tonight.

So I bought some Evapo-Rust to try and use. I decided to try it on the Excalibur router table but with a top that is 32 x 24 it would be kinda hard to immerse. I read somewhere to soak cotton rags...

Never mind I answered my own question. Mineral spirits would not be good to use because it is distilled from petroleum and could leave an oily film.
