Here is an outfeed table that I built for my Unisaw several years ago.
Keep in mind that foam board is flammable and would need to be covered by a layer of drywall.
I did this as well - 6" S&D around the perimeter. My shop is not THAT big that it should make a noticeable difference and it made the overhead much easier to live with. I did use long radius 90's at...
I've got L5 & L6 twist locks in my shop. I really like them for the ease of removal and positive lock. They're certainly a little more expensive than other options, but it's really in the noise when...
I really like my floor sweep. It's home made out of wood, but I use it for all of the chips and dust I can't easily collect with my duct work. That includes activities like hand routing and hand...
This is exactly what I did as well. It's worked out well so far.
I just installed a V3000 in my shop and have all of my duct work run, though I haven't really had much of a chance to use it yet. I went with the V3000 over the V5000 because I knew that I was using...
Agree. Run 6" to each tool if possible. I did this for my HFDC and it worked fine. That included changing the ports at several tools. It works better now that I've replaced the HFDC with an Oneida...
I built similar blast gates for my shop from this design, and wanted them to be self cleaning, but without such long slides. I opted for the design shown below which allows stuff to be pushed out the...
I've got the same setup. Heat detector in the shop, installed by the alarm company.
I haven't re-hung my 6" S&D yet, but I've purchased and plan to use screw mount cable tie holders and 175lb 36" zip ties.

I just ordered a V3000 from Oneida. (Hasn't shipped) I also had ceiling height issues that limited the cyclones that would fit. They recommended either the V3000 or V5000. As much as I'm inclined to...
Thanks for the reply Jeff.
I'd love to have a larger shop in a large outbuilding, but it's not possible at the current residence and it looks like I won't be moving for the foreseeable future....
Thanks for the responses. I was planning to call Oneida and talk with them, but I wanted to be a little more knowledgeable before I did so. I expect the drywallers to finish up next week and the...
Thanks for the reply Jeff. I would expect that as well. I did get to thinking though, that maybe a DC rated at a higher CFM might still move that volume of air in smaller ductwork with a higher...
I also have a heavily modified HF DC and am looking to move to a cyclone. Unless you are budget challenged (and I know that I was when I bought my HF DC), then consider one of the mainstream cyclone...
As my shop is being reincarnated again, I'm wanting to get a cyclone to replace my HF DC when I put it back together. I've certainly got some ceiling height issues with a maximum of 91.5", but my...
Not to hijack this thread, but my shop is currently being drywalled and I'm planning on a new cyclone when I move back in. My ceiling height is going to be 91-91.5". Is the 441 adjustable using the...
Cary - I'd like to see you new basket. I've also not been overly thrilled with my Excalibur. Even when I cut off airflow to my cabinet, it still spits dust out the front of the blade guard. I've been...
I built mine years ago using the JWW plans, and I'm embarrassed to admit that I haven't used it yet due to a reduction in shop activity. It was a neat little project though.
Hi Kenneth,
Those are engraved and not through. They're probably 1/8" thick. I've got another Creeker that's offered to make the medallions through PM. If that doesn't work out, I'll post back...
Five years ago, Steve Krim made some medallions for me to mark my projects with. I asked him for 5 medallions for each year from 2005-2009. As it is now 2010, I am out of medallions for current and...
I just got my Grizzly catalog today and was looking at this. I wonder if this is meant to compete with the Oneida V series. I've had my eye on those as I'm looking to upgrade from my HF DC. It is...
I made my gates for the 6" S&D that runs throughout my shop. I also wanted self-cleaning blast gates that wouldn't leak air when they were open. My solution was to staple a piece of rubber on the...
