I saw your video in Texas and also your demo, my shop is in my basement and always had a problem with saw dust. SO I purchased one, I went to there site and also talked with Gus via e mail and got $20 off. Can’t wait to try it out. Hopefully my lungs will be happy now. Thanks for the demo guys.

Interesting system… If you could use it like 0:47 with a hose hooked up to your router and/or sander, it should be way more effective. Also this set up has more gradual angles which should get better air flow. Not sure if you have a way to connect a dust hose to your router(s) but it makes a huge difference for me. Thanks for the thorough and honest review! 👍🏼

I’m happy for y’all! You know I’m a fan of dust collection. Sam has mine hooked to a hose and draped over a pivoting tv wall mount. I do hook it to my router but there is absolutely zero drag. You don’t even know it’s there. It’s crazy how it pulls about 90% dust off my project. I then hook it to the sander dust port. It picks up about 80% of that dust. It only slows down on backgrounds.

I was wondering about this set up when I seen you visit his display at the show. It looked real appealing and was advantagious to see you use it and give a review. Thanks !!

I will have to keep it in mind when I'm ready to purchase a dust collection system

Can’t see the point if you’re just holding it in front of your router. Just using the shop vac hose in front of the router will have the same effect??

Home Depot has this thing called Powertec cyclone dust collection system that fits on a 5 gal. bucket that is used in line before the Vac. It collects dust into the bucket therefor saving the Vacs filter from getting clogged .

First I would get a wider intake nozzle. Second I would try to find a larger vacuum. Your 6 hp was a good choice but a larger pro system would really make a difference.

When I saw this on your video from Texas I really liked it. I do believe it should have wider intake nozzle. That would make more useful for other things.

I've been concerned about you guys never wearing dust protection so hope this will be a game changer. Even working outside, you breath in a lot of fine dust.
