[@joedefloat7802]

A perfect well engineered solution tommy, great job 👍

Thanks very much Joe 😀

Another 'seemingly simple' solution to the age old problem of effective and efficient dust extraction. I'm sure there was plenty of planning, design and dedication invested in this Tommy, but you make it look so easy 😉

Thanks very much 🙂

Great design Tommy and the baffle system is a great addition that will actually work, thanks for sharing. John

Thanks John 🙂

Great as always Tommy. Glad the snow is over👍👍

Thanks very much 🙂.

Brilliant idea Tommy, simple and effective design I would never have thought of using pvc pipe as a pillar and being able to hang the pivoting arm from that. You are a genius

Thanks very much Thomas 😀

Very good solution Tommy! The baffle holes are a really good idea, and can also come in handy when cutting lightweight materials, as sometimes your extraction can pull the material up slightly as it travels across.

Thanks very much, yes I think a baffle is a must especially if using a high pressure system.

Great job Tommy, I've shared it with a friend of mine who's just got a workerbee cnc and is looking at the best dust management he can make for it. Really informative video and another of your excellent TH-cam content.

Thanks very much 🙂 I hope it helps him out 👍

[@williammcbride4978]

Thanks William 🙂.

I like this guy's accent, words like "tinking" and "thaught" and "tat", he be so Irish tis great.

[@jimmer411]

Came for the content and stayed for the accent! Could listen to you talk all day

Haha thank you very much and welcome to the channel 🙂

Awesome job! I like the idea of the boom arm being connected to the CNC table and not a wall. I'll be implementing a similar approach to my own CNC setup. Thanks for posting! Subscribed.

Thank you very much and welcome to the channel 🙂

Really well done, sir! Elegant in its simplicity and function. The pressure adjustment holes were brilliant. I'd heard that too high a vacuum and the brush hairs begin to get sucked up into the pipe so this was a lovely adjustable fix. I'll be making mine a little different as mine is going to be enclosed in a dust enclosure but what you presented looks like an easy adaptation. Thanks for sharing, it really helped!

Thanks I'm delighted you found it helpful 🙂

[@alainborgnet4282]

That's great. If you don't mind, I'll copy it for my brand new Workbee Z1+. 🙂

No problem at all glad you like it 🙂

[@justwavingenterprises2542]

excellent video

Thank you very much 🙂

[@KenMulinge]

Good video I like your router box , is it a normal router fixed upside down in the box?

Hi Ken, yes that's all it is very simple and easy solution for a router table 🙂

[@KenMulinge]

@ Thanks - so simple ive been messing around with a Silverline thing for months

[@fencer39]

Great Video Tommy. Havnt seen you about for a few months You've got me very interested in the Z1. How are things going with it?

Thanks very much, Z1 is doing great will have some more videos of it soon 😀

[@phalkoni]

great job well done

Thank you very much 🙂, thanks for watching

[@simoncoote9973]

Really like your boom arm. Want to copy it but cannot find the est.99mm ventilation ducting. Easy to get the 100mm but not the insert one. Any suggestion as to where to get it? Keep up the videos - really useful.

Hi Simon, I got the ventilation pipe in screwfix. From memory the sewage pipe is 100mm inside diameter and the ventilation pipe is 100mm external diameter. Another option is to put a sawcut in the bigger pipe so it fits inside itself if that makes sense

[@simoncoote9973]

@ Thanks for your help tommy, it does make sense.

[@mikebond6328]

Genius!

Thanks very much 🙂
