hey guys,
I just got in my new Grizzly G0555x bandsaw and i love it !! It has a 4" dust port on it and im wondering which route to take. I will upgrade to a professional collection system later when im able to get the size shop i want but for now I only have the space and $$ right now for a shop vac size vacuum and was wondering--
1. Whats the minimum and/or the optimal HP and size i need?
---I dont cut a whole lot of stuff at once right now, or for a long period of time either.
2. How much flow do you think is decrease if i have the 4" port necked down to a 2 1/2 or 2 1/4 hose to go on a normal shop vac and how much performance is lost, if any, noticable?
3. once i am able to get something bigger, whats the best bang for the buck on something small but professional grade you can have multi ports on?
any suggestions greatly appreciated..thanks jonathan
