Boy, you are hooked up now!! Great dust collection system and I learned a new trick with the rubber inner tube. I just happen to have two still in the box. They are not 68 mm, but I suspect I'll find a use for friction fittings. I am beaming for you. The shop is really coming along beautifully, and you should be very proud of all you have accomplished just a few month's time. I predict in a year's time, you will be doing this full time. I relate to you in that we both salvage materials and repurpose them. I went through a life change when my spouse died recently and my monthly income was cut on half. I struggle to make ends meet each month, and I am disabled, so working is out of the question. However, I still have a large inventory of items leftover from my Etsy store. And other than a lathe, I have every tool I need to continue making. You have inspired me to get back to making and selling again. Thank you for that. Your exuberance over your new shop has motivated me in away no one else could do.
Hey there Keith I've gone with 68mm pipe for my dust collection and installed all the ceiling runs when I insulated the roof. It's the availability of parts that determined the size. I have used HDF (Hardboard) for my gates in MDF frames and they work well. The only issue I have with finishing the project is that both my shop Vac and chip extractor can't move to their final positions until I've finished installing cabinets on one side of the workshop and so it's easier just to connect the shop vac. An alternative to bicycle inner tubes is large diameter heat heat shrink or shrink wrap.
@@RagnBoneBrown Yes almost certainly. Folk on Instagram have been really interested in the custom-fit dust collection fittings (especially the 90 degree one for may DeWalt Mitre Saw) and so I've filmed all the little bits and pieces I've done. I've made a point of moving to a dust-free shop and I'm toying with a down draft table idea for one of my cabinet bench tops - imagine mitre bench with many more holes in it. Anyway
I stumbled upon the inner tube solution while grappling with incompatible hose diameters. It works really well - and had the added satisfaction of recycling old tubes. I’ve also used tubes for holding overhead flexi hose, providing non-slip feet, providing a grippy surface on a dowel in a drill press to sand and finish a wooden ring, replacement toilet hinge gasket, providing a non-marring, shock-absorbing tie-back strap, replacing missing caps on my roof rack bars. Etc. Saved literally hundreds of pounds with one old cycle tube.
Just finishing the building of the new workshop and I'm planning to use 100mm pipes (prob the axminster kit - it looks like it'll just about cover my needs with the vacs, etc, I have). I'll keep you posted how it works out... Assuming it does work out.... You seem to have all your bases covered and everything looks very efficient. It will, I'm sure, be good to get back to making stuff again. I know I'm fed up with building the bloody thing! Best aye!

Hello, the dust removal system of the new workshop is fine. One of the most important systems for workshops is the dust extraction system. Thank you for sharing. embrace greetings....
You could have a remote control in your pocket, or attached to your person in a secure place. That way, a remote control is always within reach of you regardless where you are in the shop. Was curious how strong the suction would be, but pleased to see the demonstration on your face. Strong than I expected!
Nice one, although I had the impression that the way Peter uses the inner tube is inside the pipe (over the male and inside the female), as opposed to a sleeve over both parts? I could be wrong, and it seems your method works well anyway. Also, you're right that in addition to using smooth walled pipe, the better air flow is due to the larger pipe diameter. It's easy to think that small pipe = more pressure = more suction, but given the vacs you're using are leaning more towards being HVLP, then larger pipe = more air flow. Love the cheek suction test!
Going to be looking for something soon. Have a Karcher vacuum but the fine sawdust clags the hep filter all the time. I think I need a cyclonic filter before it hits the vacuum. Also, I have since found the vacuum really needs a lower speed, shorter hose and larger diameter.
Hi Keith another good video, you could dip the rubber in boiling water to make it more pliable and you can get 2 wire style jubilee clips which might work better with the flexible hose keep up the good work ,G
Excellent video Keith, I'm currently using 40 mm flexible piping. I think solid drain pipes are a much better solution, this can be my project over Christmas!
I love your videos. I REALLY love that we’re (more or less) at the same point in our “new” workshop. I am hoping to build my dust collection into my workshop by the end of this month, actually.
Fantastic job keith ! doing a workshop refurb in the new year and this will help a ton ! thanks! a rooky mistake of mine was not setting up for dust collection in the past, i was just starting out and i think it will be worth all the effort and money in the long term.
This looks great, good video. I like the blast gates. The only thing I would recommend is to round off the corners of the frame around the bottom of the central pillar before someone catches their foot on a sharp corner. Just cutting them at 45 degrees in situ would help a lot. Great workshop, I too have the envy bug now!
I'm Sarah, I make kids wooden outdoor play equipment and dust extraction is my nightmare, I would love to pay somebody to install this at my workshop, I purchased 2 axminster dust collectors and thought they were crap, because the sales guy told me that the Jet dust collector I purchased wouldn't work when reducing suction to my machinery that was 50mm ad below. So I exchanged, i don't heal it of time as I'm jack of all trades master of none lol
Another good one is if the pipe joint fits together fairly well, but has a bit of clearance that creates an air leak, you can coat the inside of the joint with vaseline, which will seal it up and doesn't get hard. Best of all it's cheap.
Love watching theses videos. Just planning my workshop build and these videos create workshop envy 😉. Watching how you set up and organise your workspace is great, keep em coming.
Wish manufacturers all used the same size outlets for dust extraction. Great video but it shouldn’t be so difficult to safely extract dust from the machines we buy!
Very interesting mini-series. i watched all three parts after each other. Thanks for sharing. Could you please give a summary of the costs all together?
Cheers Hans. I didn't really keep track, but I'd say approx £60 for all the ducting, £60 for the cyclone, £10 for the dust barrel, £12 for the 4 by 4 post and about £6 for the innertubes. Maybe another £20-30 on adapters and hose. Everything else I already had.
Quick tip when tighten jubilee clips used a socket wrench the screwheads are cheap and normally damage very easily so while doing them up with a drill driver is quick but undoing later after they have corroded a bit is tricky. Also Markers Central 3 has just been announced would be Awsum to See you there👍 lovecyour Channel 👊
Nice system Keith. One thing to keep an eye on with the inner tube is any signs of it perishing; I used smaller tube to make my own bandy clamps but found I only got about a year out of it before it fell to bits. Might be because my shop’s not insulated so the temp swings didn’t help.
Hi Keith, thanks for the video. Definitely one I've been waiting for as I'll soon be doing something similar. Was going to use duct tape for mine but your idea of inner tube got me thinking about something else - self amalgamating tape. Less than 3 quid from Screwfix. Regarding the efficiency and airflow, it is almost certainly due to the extra diameter. You have trebled the cross-sectional area by going with the larger pipe. I work a lot with high vacuum systems and we always use a larger diameter pipe when the distance has to be increased.
Well done for all that effort! It's what puts me off from doing something similar - I can't help feeling that it should be possible to get connectors that actual fit without faffing about (inside diameter of one pipe = outside diameter of connector is, apparently, rocket science...)
Great video. Enjoyed watching that as I like to find innovative ways of overcoming problems. As an aside, I find an oscillating tool is good for cutting gutter and downpipe upvc without sending 'sticky' dust everywhere
Did like the video - In the days I used to design this stuff I would have gone for 2" uPVC pipe class C but then the fittings costs are eye-watering so your practical approach was refreshing. For your commentators, adding a 100mm cyclone may not give you the results you expect. They rely on the velocity of the air entering to create spin and thus a centrifugal force to increase the sedimentation rate. If you increase the inlet diameter you run the risk that your velocity drops to the point that the efficiency of the cyclone is severely reduced - you need to do a chunk of maths before you start spending money IMHO. I've been thinking of adding a sedimentation box with filter - the box is about 200mm wide, 600mm high and 1200mm long with a sloping floor and a HEPA in the last sections of the roof (its part of the bench). Anything above 0.1mm will drop out and about 50% down to 20 microns will also settle, the filters will deal with the rest; I plan to use cheap hydrophobic (& washable) filters. Target result; bulk dust removal at the bench, decreased filter cost, and a low-cost unit where the tools are simply pushed into a hole in the back of the bench.
Hi keith, to get that inner tube on you could use something resembling a cricket bat grip cone and roll it on. I doubt you would find anything exactly the right size so would have to fabracobble something, but I think it would work...
Great video Keith i've been looking forward to this video. The Rutlands 63mm piping is the same as what i have but haven't put up yet, and i also didn't get it from there either as i also thought for the price, there wasn't enough parts which meant going back to them to buy the parts. That was until i found Turners Retreat which also do the machines, including the one that you got the Record Power one. I bought my pipes and extras from there and picked my moments to get the stuff as i wasn't in a rush for them, so the sales came in handy. Cheers. Barry (Wirral, ENG)
Static is no problem at this scale. Static is a problem with very high volume and high pressure systems. It's totally OTT for home shops, I feel like youtubers just do it to save themselves from criticism ha
I agree, in a small shop with smaller amounts of dust it shouldn't be a problem. I've read a lot of stuff about static when I was planning to install my own piping, is a real pita to ground all the pipe (most only show grounding the outside with small gauge copper wire) then realize that the inside could still be charged. I would think high volume/ high pressure systems would use metal spiral piping to avoid collapse.
@@RagnBoneBrown I was looking for these and had written them off as well, however I did see that Axminster are now selling a "craft" badged cyclone either on its on (~£100) or with movable bin and sacks for £142 - still not exactly cheap, but better than the crazy prices I have seen before. have a search for "Axminster Craft ACCIH Cyclone Interceptor Head" One for the Christmas list maybe!
Excellent video, I'm about to make something similar and have been inspired by your video to buy a m class numatic extractor. I've noticed a possible choke point in the airflow of your system...the 50mm input and output on the cyclone....there's Chinese cyclones i've seen online that have a 75mm input/output which is closer to the 68mm diameter of your ducting, switching to one of them should hopefully increase your airflow...though it looks absolutely great as it is.
A lot of work and faffing went into this, as always seems to be the case trying to connect everything. Good job on finding your solutions though mate. Those silicone reducers have saved me a few times now.
Hi great video! Would you say a festool MIDI extraction unit is good for a dewalt job site table saw? Would this be a good solution or would something else be better?
Some water and fairy washing up liquid (or any other washing up liquid) will lubricate the inner tube / pipe and make getting it on the pipe components easier. When it dries out, it no longer acts as a lubricant.
I own both the record and rutlands extractor. Can tell you the record is quieter but only half as powerful as the rutlands one.i only use them with 63mm piping tho
Nice one Keith, looks good I like the inner tube idea. I have the Rutland extractor for my lathe, Thicknesser and Bandsaw (on offer at £60) but its not GREEN so i can see why you got the Record Power one. Your shop is coming on nice
I’ve found having multiple dust extractors works for me, the blast gates everywhere seem a nightmare but I understand it’s not cheap to purchase multiple extractors, horses fo courses mate
Glad I became a Patreon to your channel. The videos are a great source of information and give me definite information to follow. Really enjoy the issues and remind me of things I've thought of but not followed through.
Hi! I just made a dust collection system with 50 mm cyclone driven by 100 mm capable dust extractor (scheppach ha1000) via reduction. the suction power is great for my bandsaw (I'm collecting dust from under the table) and for general purposes. However I'm worrying if restricted flow won't be harmful for the motor of the device on a long run... (no proper cooling maybe?) What do you think?
Hi, I might have the chance to get my hands on a used Numatic HZD750-2 with the HEPA filter for a good price. Obviously as a class H extractor designed for its designed for toxic rather than wood waste, but I was just wondering how similar this is to your NVD750 and if its suitable for woodworking? Thanks
The magic word Rutlands.... I've been looking fr an alternative for the RecordPower DX4000 ..... although it only has one motor its still cheaper to buy two.... and still cheaper than a DX4000..... correct me if its worth the Ruthlands or the RP..?
Don't get me wrong, I've never used that inner-tube trick, but in similar things that I've done, I found it was much easier to use soapy water to get it on. Once it dries, it's stuck in place well, just like if you didn't use the soapy water. But it's MUCH easier to put on
Nice work, as always. One question I had was why you don't own a jigsaw? They are cheap and you've needed one in at least 2 other videos. I've used a jigsaw to quickly cut nice shapes out of wood, plastic, and metal. All you need is one drill hole and off you go. Cheers!
@@RagnBoneBrown Hi. I would have used it to make the ducting hole in your mitre saw station. Rather than drilling a series of holes and then using a rasp, just one or two holes drilled big enough for your jigsaw blade would do, assuming there was enough room there for the saw to fit. I've had good luck making very clean holes with a jigsaw and the job is done quickly. Anyway, I had seen you do the very same thing in a couple of other videos (drill many holes and refine with a rasp). Thought maybe you didn't have a jigsaw. Cheers.
If the hole was at 90 degrees to the top I would have used the jigsaw but it was at a compound angle which would have been more awkward with a jigsaw I think
Some help please ! I've made up a very basic system. Large home drum type vacuum. Vortex, cyclone thingy & heavy duty plastic drum. It works well for only a few seconds. Then the suction causes the drum to "suck-in". All hoses are free of obstruction. I've tried to brace the inside of the plastic drum. Not really effective. Any ideas ?
Having used a shop vac when working with wood fiber insulation I'd definitely consider static. I got several painful shocks off the hose and it wasn't nice! Not an explosive atmosphere, but is it worth the risk?
OMG! Did you stop filming whilst you changed your underpants when the bearing flew off the router? That could have gone so badly. Glad it turned out well. 👍
How is this system working out for you. Its been 3 years since the video came out Have you had any blockages. I like it a lot and i am just working out my system and researching ready for my big fitting day 👍
@@RagnBoneBrown thanks for the quick response. This was my preferred option due to the price for the guttering pipe. I love the inner tube socks for sealing as well Mind made up 👍👏👍👏👍
@@RagnBoneBrown you can try that, but normally such a oil filled radiator takes a long time to heat up, and is only suitable for small rooms. I think you should go for a infrared heater or hot air fan. Thanks for replying.
Thank so much for all your videos, I find them so helpful. I'm just about to purchase the Numatic NVD750 and have been offered the AC118Cl Cyclone interceptor for £153. Would you think this would be worth getting? I appreciate that it can probably be done slightly cheaper by making one from scratch as you have done, but for the reduced effort, does this seem like a worthwhile offer or would you always suggest building my own? I suppose time is of the essence as my workshop is a very unhealthy dust bowl at the minute, that's why I'm considering it. Thanks again
Who needs time stamps at the beginning of the video... you know we're going to watch every single second! Really enjoyed it and learned a few things too!
Thanks David! If only everyone felt the same 😂
You spell Amazon wrong
Some great ideas especially the rubber connections using inner tube, Thank you and Peter Millard
Boy, you are hooked up now!! Great dust collection system and I learned a new trick with the rubber inner tube. I just happen to have two still in the box.

The shop is really coming along beautifully, and you should be very proud of all you have accomplished just a few month's time. I predict in a year's time, you will be doing this full time. I relate to you in that we both salvage materials and repurpose them. I went through a life change when my spouse died recently and my monthly income was cut on half. I struggle to make ends meet each month, and I am disabled, so working is out of the question. However, I still have a large inventory of items leftover from my Etsy store. And other than a lathe, I have every tool I need to continue making. You have inspired me to get back to making and selling again. Thank you for that.

Golly, I'm suddenly afflicted with workshop envy! Congrats, Keith,
I stumbled upon the inner tube solution while grappling with incompatible hose diameters. It works really well - and had the added satisfaction of recycling old tubes. I’ve also used tubes for holding overhead flexi hose, providing non-slip feet, providing a grippy surface on a dowel in a drill press to sand and finish a wooden ring, replacement toilet hinge gasket, providing a non-marring, shock-absorbing tie-back strap, replacing missing caps on my roof rack bars. Etc. Saved literally hundreds of pounds with one old cycle tube.

I did that at my old workshop and kept losing the remotes, having two permanently close to my main machines is working much better for me
@@RagnBoneBrown So I'm not the only one then! Fair enough ha

If I was you I would keep on the lookout for a 100mm cyclone as that would greatly increase your airflow
they're crazy expensive unfortunately

Some water and fairy washing up liquid (or any other washing up liquid) will lubricate the inner tube / pipe and make getting it on the pipe components easier. When it dries out, it no longer acts as a lubricant.
I own both the record and rutlands extractor. Can tell you the record is quieter but only half as powerful as the rutlands one.i only use them with 63mm piping tho
Nice one Keith, looks good I like the inner tube idea. I have the Rutland extractor for my lathe, Thicknesser and Bandsaw (on offer at £60) but its not GREEN so i can see why you got the Record Power one. Your shop is coming on nice
Fantastic. Dust collection is a mine field. I need to sort that out in my small workshop but dont know what to use
I’ve found having multiple dust extractors works for me, the blast gates everywhere seem a nightmare but I understand it’s not cheap to purchase multiple extractors, horses fo courses mate
Excellent video mate. Some really clever ideas that I’ll definitely use in my upcoming workshop. I’ve subscribed. 👍🏻
Glad I became a Patreon to your channel. The videos are a great source of information and give me definite information to follow. Really enjoy the issues and remind me of things I've thought of but not followed through.
Thanks James 👍
Great vid as usual. Thought the spider was on my PC screen for a second..
😂😂😂
Thanks for your explanation 👍
Would the DX1000 be powerful enough to use with 110mm waste pipe ducting system?
Great looking system!!
Hi! I just made a dust collection system with 50 mm cyclone driven by 100 mm capable dust extractor (scheppach ha1000) via reduction. the suction power is great for my bandsaw (I'm collecting dust from under the table) and for general purposes. However I'm worrying if restricted flow won't be harmful for the motor of the device on a long run... (no proper cooling maybe?) What do you think?
Hi, I might have the chance to get my hands on a used Numatic HZD750-2 with the HEPA filter for a good price. Obviously as a class H extractor designed for its designed for toxic rather than wood waste, but I was just wondering how similar this is to your NVD750 and if its suitable for woodworking? Thanks
The magic word Rutlands.... I've been looking fr an alternative for the RecordPower DX4000 ..... although it only has one motor its still cheaper to buy two.... and still cheaper than a DX4000..... correct me if its worth the Ruthlands or the RP..?
helpful video. Thanks a lot :)
Record has a 5 year warranty too, all my stuff is record. I like green too
A I am looking for a tip on extraction hoses.....I’ve bought some 2” but it’s not flexible enough any ideas please. B
If you've got a cyclone in and the space is there anything to stop you just venting outside to save on bags etc?
I don't actually use bags in my vac. Not sure re venting outside not something I've tried
Have seen the 6'x8' workshop 2x4 ducting was used to save space with round type adaptors when connecting to a machine?
Hi mate, what is the green barrel used for please?
Here's a video that explains th-cam.com/video/ao2NztU51Ww/w-d-xo.html
Great work, wish you could come to Sweden and help me with my planed garage to woodwork shop 👍👍
Hi, could you tell me which site you got the silicon / rubber reducers from please ?
eBay, shown in the video 👍
Hi, sorry to bother you ( again ) but did u use 102 mm to 76mm silicon reducers ???
Don't get me wrong, I've never used that inner-tube trick, but in similar things that I've done, I found it was much easier to use soapy water to get it on. Once it dries, it's stuck in place well, just like if you didn't use the soapy water. But it's MUCH easier to put on
Subs like a great tip may try it some day
I definitely recommend it. Especially with stickers. So many times its saved me from crooked applications and getting air bubbles stuck under them
Nice work, as always. One question I had was why you don't own a jigsaw? They are cheap and you've needed one in at least 2 other videos. I've used a jigsaw to quickly cut nice shapes out of wood, plastic, and metal. All you need is one drill hole and off you go. Cheers!
I do own a jigsaw. I'm curious as to where you think I should have used it during this project?
@@RagnBoneBrown Hi. I would have used it to make the ducting hole in your mitre saw station. Rather than drilling a series of holes and then using a rasp, just one or two holes drilled big enough for your jigsaw blade would do, assuming there was enough room there for the saw to fit. I've had good luck making very clean holes with a jigsaw and the job is done quickly. Anyway, I had seen you do the very same thing in a couple of other videos (drill many holes and refine with a rasp). Thought maybe you didn't have a jigsaw. Cheers.
If the hole was at 90 degrees to the top I would have used the jigsaw but it was at a compound angle which would have been more awkward with a jigsaw I think
@@RagnBoneBrown Ah, I see. Thanks for the explanation, Keith.
Some help please ! I've made up a very basic system. Large home drum type vacuum. Vortex, cyclone thingy & heavy duty plastic drum. It works well for only a few seconds. Then the suction causes the drum to "suck-in". All hoses are free of obstruction. I've tried to brace the inside of the plastic drum. Not really effective. Any ideas ?

Thanks :-)
with a small cyclone and a high power vacuum, how well does the cyclone separate?
I showed that in the video about the cyclone
I was thinking of doing this near exact thing, glad I watched this vid, good info /tips
Hi Keith, thanks for the video. Could you use a hair dryer to make the inner tube more flexible? Cheers, Mandy
i notice you don't have a large table saw. do u find the dewalt adequate?
Hah! Hornburger? Great name!!
Having used a shop vac when working with wood fiber insulation I'd definitely consider static. I got several painful shocks off the hose and it wasn't nice! Not an explosive atmosphere, but is it worth the risk?
Why do you reduce the diameter of the pipe?
OMG! Did you stop filming whilst you changed your underpants when the bearing flew off the router? That could have gone so badly. Glad it turned out well. 👍
I actiually didn't realise until it started cutting badly! I was lucky, had it been a bigger bit it could have caused some real damage!
How is this system working out for you. Its been 3 years since the video came out
Have you had any blockages.
I like it a lot and i am just working out my system and researching ready for my big fitting day
👍
No blockages still using it
@@RagnBoneBrown thanks for the quick response. This was my preferred option due to the price for the guttering pipe.
I love the inner tube socks for sealing as well
Mind made up 👍👏👍👏👍
Maybe i mist it in the previous video's, but how do you heat the workshop during the colder days?
oil filled radiator but haven't turned it on yet and not sure if it will cope with the new space!
@@RagnBoneBrown you can try that, but normally such a oil filled radiator takes a long time to heat up, and is only suitable for small rooms. I think you should go for a infrared heater or hot air fan. Thanks for replying.
Excelente!
Thank so much for all your videos, I find them so helpful. I'm just about to purchase the Numatic NVD750 and have been offered the AC118Cl Cyclone interceptor for £153. Would you think this would be worth getting? I appreciate that it can probably be done slightly cheaper by making one from scratch as you have done, but for the reduced effort, does this seem like a worthwhile offer or would you always suggest building my own? I suppose time is of the essence as my workshop is a very unhealthy dust bowl at the minute, that's why I'm considering it. Thanks again
