Hello,
Re-modeling my shop, and just got my Oneida V-3000 DC and am thinking about the ducting. In the past I've used PVC, but wanted to upgrade to steel. The two options I've been investigating are the Oneida snap-lock system (22g), which looks reasonable but perhaps a pain to assemble, and the Nordfab system, also 22g, which looks much, much easier to install, but is also crazy expensive. The other ducting I can find locally is much more flimsy (e.g. 26g). So, what have other folks done? How difficult is it to work with the snap-lock? Anyone think staying with PVC still the best idea?? For reference, it's a home shop...about 500 sq ft. Thanks for the help!
