Well, seems someone has already posted about the P/Flux, however the one I got was the C/Flux, only because is was cheaper. There isn't much out there on these machines, so I thought I'd add my input, for anyone looking for info.
I had an Oneida 2hp Dust Gorilla that I had to sell because of space issues, so I ended up with the older version of the Laguna 2HP DC. That machine was giving me problems, so I ended up getting rid of it and moving up to the new C/Flux model. The C/Flux seemed to have a longer cone, so I thought that might result in better separation. Space was still an issue, but the added height still fit in my space.
There's a great assembly video on Youtube for this machine, so I won't bore you with the specifics. What I will say is that this machine has a lot of parts and will definitely take up the better part of a day, at the very least, to assemble. It is considerably heavier than the previous model and all of the walls of the barrel and cone look to be thicker and more like my Oneida was, for which I was very pleased. I used a HF hoist to do the lifting and was glad to have it. Otherwise, two strong dudes could probably do the job.
Probably the one thing that I was most disappointed with, was the dust bin and insert. Assembly of the two pieces is very tedious, with what seemed like hundreds of screws. The result is fine, but I would have been happier with a fully welded and sealed, dust bin and insert. The bin is held together with sheet metal screws that protrude into the bin and pointed ends are covered with little plastic covers. To me, this was less than ideal, as those buggers would likely tear any plastic liner in the bin, so I replaced those sheet metal screws with screws and nuts and installed them so that the heads were on the inside of the bin. I trimmed off the screw ends to keep them from being a hazard on the outside of the bin. The insert already uses screws and nuts, so I simply trimmed off those screw ends as well. Because the bin is pieced together, it's necessary to use silicon sealer to make the bin as air tight as possible, which would not have been necessary with a welded bin. I'm sure this was a $ saving feature, so I guess I'm OK with it, but...
All that said, this machine is much more robust and Oneida-like, than the older version was. I like the levered dust bin lift, as it's a convenient way to make accessing and sealing the bin a lot easier.
The first time I fired up the C/Flux, it sounded just like the Dust Gorilla and a lot stronger than the older Laguna model. The second time I fired it up, my breaker tripped. I'm attributing that to break-in, as subsequent starts went fine. If I'm wrong, please let me know. I don't have any flow meters, so I can't tell you for sure, but this DC feels like it sucks every bit as well at the Dust Gorilla did. I'm sure only time will tell if it separates as well.
Overall, I have a very good first impression of the C/Flux. It's fit and finish are what I hoped it would be and construction is solid, with good welds and thick walls. Frankly, I'm surprised that you can get a DC of this quality, for around $1350 on a Rockler sale day, but that's a good thing. I'll post on performance once I get some miles on her. Hope this helps.
