Hi All,
Looking for a little advice on ducting diameter. My DC is a laguna P|flux2 which should be rated for 2hp, the impeller is 14.5". I'm planning on running a 6" main line across the left wall and having 5" branch lines cross over to the planer and bandsaw. From there the they'll connect up to 4" dust ports, which I'll look at enlarging sometime in the future. I also have a table saw, but I don't plan on using it or connecting it up to the DC for another couple years.
Should I bother with dropping down to 5" branches or should I run 6" ducts everywhere I can? I'm concerned with DC's ability to pick up chips on the vertical, unless i neck down and increase the flow speed.
Thoughts?
