I'm putting together my first shop. It will be a fairly standard weekender shop that I'm putting in the basement. I've read some postings here and then got directed over to Bill Pentz website. It seems he's fairly controversial but he sure paints a dismal picture for a guy like me trying to pursue a part time hobby on a budget.
I guess I can see about venting DC outside but I'm in a residential neighborhood that might not allow it. And I'm not sure even how to find that out. Plus I don't like the idea of spewing sawdust out into the yard.
I seem to recall last year's FWW tool issue suggesting that you get a 1 micron filter DC system but Pentz seems to think that alone is not nearly enough and would be endangering the whole household.
I realize that dust is a health issue but I've always that the real danger is for the full time professional.
Any input greatly appreciated.
