Hi all,
I'm looking for advice on DC. I'll cut right to the chase - I'm between retrofitting a HF single stage DC unit OR spending quite a bit more on Oneida's Mini Gorilla. The HF retrofit would cost $539 (it would include adding Oneida's 5" SDD ($169) with 17 gallon steel drum ($101) and their HEPA Cartridge Filter Upgrade ($269)). The Mini Gorilla runs $1,349. https://www.oneida-air.com/dust-coll...dust-collector
My shop is a two car garage. All my tools are on mobile bases. I have no DC piping. I collect dust from my tools 1 tool at a time. I don't own a joiner and have no plans to get one any time soon. I do have a DeWalt 735 planer, Bosch 4100 TS, Rockler router table and a vintage DeWalt GWI RAS. My biggest dust maker is a Craftsman Professional 12" disk/6"x48" belt combo sander with 4" DC ports.
Anyone have a retrofit HF DC? Can anyone share their experience with the Mini Gorilla? Can a retrofit HF unit even be compared to the Mini Gorilla?
Thanks for taking the time to help me get this right.
Mike
