Hi all,
In addition to my cyclone DC system, I'm thinking about putting in some kind of central vacuum system. I'm tired of rolling around my shop vac/dust deputy cart all over my shop. It's bulky and always in the way, not to mention super loud.
I use my shop vac for sanding and clean up. I'm also considering using it for my sawstop TS's blade guard connection (it's currently connected to my DC with a 2.5" hose dropped from the ceiling). I'd like to build a closet for both my cyclone and my shop vac to keep the noise down.
-Are there any innovative solutions out there?
-How do I figure out an appropriate size for the vacuum? I have a Rigid shop vac right now that had good suction, but once I put the Dust Deputy mini cyclone in front of it, I noticed a meaningful drop in vacuum. I imagine it will only get worse if there's ~50ft of ducting added on.
-Any other guidance or thoughts about the idea?
Thanks in advance!
Peter
