Mr Witter, in the independant study you posted about (Randy Riley's shop) I have a couple of questions please. While I'm guessing you did not set up the parameters for the test, I'm hoping you can find out, if you don't know, some answers. I'm a little concerned that two different locations were used. The study states the size of the first shop, but only says the new shop is "approximately the same size" Is this the normal way to set up a test of this nature? I would think that at the minimum, the size of the second building should be stated, and most scientific studies would have been conducted on the exact same building, is this not true?
Along the same lines, the study says that the original shop was in a warehouse building, but doesn't state the type of building the new shop was in. Is it a newly constructed building, or just a new shop in a different building, same or different type of construction? If it is in a different type of construction, wouldn't this have affected the testing in some way?
I understand that the tests were conducted as a typical day in a custom shop. But again, wouldn't a scientific study have controlled the machines, the wood and the amount of time that each machine was used?
The study also stated that the new shop was using the Oneida 3hp system. Was the old shop using any type of dust collection system, and if so, what was it?
Thanks for your time and help in these matters. Jim.
