I've just reconfigured the DC setup in my shop and I am left with a question. When I started my 1.5 hp DC unit was right next to my lathe, now it is about 20 feet away at the other end of the shop. Obviously it's not quite as effective as it was before. I'm thinking about splitting the difference and moving it about half way back but before I do I'd like to know how much suction is enough? And is there a simple way to determine if the suction I'm getting now is enough?
Inquiring minds want to know!
