Hi, I have a detached garage that is my workshop where I do some hobby woodworking 2-3 times per week. Over the years I have build up my tool collection from craigslist finds and one of those includes a Delta 50-850 dust collector that is still using the original bag filter. I was close to pulling the trigger on a wynn filter for it but after doing some research I see that many are venting their dust collectors outside.
My shop is a detached garage that does not have any other appliances except a resistance heater and a window rattler AC unit. No danger of sucking in fumes from furnace or water heater.
If I were to vent the the Delta DC outside, I have read it's a good idea to separate the chips using a cyclone or thien baffle. What would be the better option for my little under-powered unit?
Can anyone provide their first hand experience with a setup like this using a 1.5 hp DC?
Thanks in advance.
