    I have moved. Pics of new shop

    Well I made the move from Va. to Tn. We were extremely blessed to find the right house in the right area but most of all It has a shop. The house is a 4 bedroom with an attached 2 car garage. The shop is a separate building that is 40' X 32' with a space heater and window AC units. I am posting a pic of the outside and hope to have some pics of the inside later today.
    I am currently installing my new Woodsucker II Dust collector and the ducting. The shop is in a bit of a mess but I will post the pics anyway

    Hey, what kind of ducting you using for that DC? I am about to install mine but still havent decided on plastic or metal. Is it easy to work with that plastic? What is it, SDR?

    Looks kool anyways. Enjoy.

    Rob,
    The ducting is S&D ASTM 2729. It is very light and easy to work with. I chose not to glue it and I used HVAC tape and silicone to seal it tight. So far so good. I use a fine tooth handsaw to make my cuts and it all fits nicely together. No need to buy special adaptors for the machines or the flex hose.

    Greg

    You are living the dream. I'm not sure if I'm more envious of the shop or the tools.

    Shop address!

    Ain't that neat! A shop with it's own address. I just wish I had a shop.

    Congrats from Mt Julliet, TN

    Greg -

    Looks like a good place to settle down. I am working on my last extension, then the papers go in when that is approved. Will be 28 years when I'm done.

    Regards,
    Ted
