As I understand it, HVLP systems provide a constant speed of air movement, and therefore volume is related to the square of the diameter (A = pi r^2) so going from 10cm to 4cm is going from 78 sq cm to 12 sq cm, so not 40% more like 15%! Whereas Vac systems offer constant pressure, hence a...

Hi Mark, the table is 35" front to back including rails, and 40" wide (just the tables). However the rails extend past the tables - widthwise, but of course you could always shorten them. You do need of course outfeed space to, and having almost 1m of cut width to parallel fence is great. One...

Ah, you have effectively something like 2 x 50mm which feed into a 100mm. And the standard crown guard is not super good. I had something very similar indeed with my Scheppach, and I think you'll get better results with a standard shop vac and a 35 to 100mm adaptor. if you have a shop vac...

I'd always thought 10cm was the "standard" and 15+ was for commercial premises, and that all these "small" extractors were designed for 10cm duct. And the Jet comes with 10cm ports... still, I've been wrong before, I'm sure. How about one to the back, and one to the crown guard. Then at the...

I don't think this goes on the circuit board, probably somewhere where the mains come in. Sent from my GT-I9301I using Tapatalk

Doesn't that make it a little cold in winter? It's -5 C outside now for me, colder later in evening, would not want to expunge all my warm(ish) air outside!

Do you know which meter? when it comes to cheap chinese stuff it's 95% miss in the game of hit and miss, so recommendations always good. I guess my head scratching is coming from the fact that the maths is wrong one way or the other. The Jet figures would seem to indicate that air speed...

Hey PAC, just looking at your maths, which seems reasonable, and then the Jet catalog. So they list the 1100A as 1620m3/h at 150mm duct, and 1150 for 100mm duct. So, i did some conversion, to get this to cfm... 953cfm at 6" 676cfm at 4" yet taking your maths, which assume airflow is...

Thanks, Well I have a soil pipe under the floor, embedded in concrete, so it's going to have to work off 10cm, or I go for a high pressure system. I just need to borrow one and see if it works - fancy popping over to Italy with yours in your hand luggage?

I've only got experience with High Pressure systems, I have a shop vac, going through a separator (which only really catches large material from planer). I connect the separator to my machines, or to a duct network of 63mm (2.5") pipework, with at least 5m runs, and 8 blast gates. That works...

Did you get this sorted in the end? Looking to purchase the DC1100A.

It's often the feedback sites get on initial adoption of modern design techniques. I agree the homepage is just a mass of adverts, however I normally know what I want and after the homepage I find the site much better. The menus and everything work much better, font size is a user preference...

Thanks. I found that most of those are not very absorbent, these have been washed xx times and are better than others I've tried. I guess I could take a punt on some ebay ones, I was hoping someone might know a source that they rate.

Had a delivery of a nice Festool router from UK to Italy. (For some reason routers seem like clamps, I think that's 6 now). Axminster dispatched within about 10 minutes of order on Monday, goes via DPD, and is "out for delivery" on Thursday in Italy. I'll take Friday off and really crack on...

Thanks Jack. I actually bought the filter from another company, as it was cheaper, and they put me through to Jet support. When I explained sending back the unit was going to be tricky and expensive, they offered me the option to replace the PCB myself. The PCB and a rather large capacitor...

20cm is quite small, however when doing the cut outs for hob and sink I was able to get beautiful accurate straight cuts. One could go to the corners on the top and cut the rest with a handsaw flush. I tended to leave a bit and do a curve with a router as it's stronger. I rough cut worktops...

Narrower is easier for assembly cos you can get to things for clamping. If you're making a drawer, and it's 18" wide, or deep, or anything 18", and you have a 3' bench, you can't clamp down. for sanding, planing, assembly etc. Most things that are big can be laid on side, or top. I have made...

Thanks. On my woodrat which is controlled so one can go in both directions you can see an amazing difference when you go the other way. the cuts are super clean.

I thought going the wrong way might actually be preferable, as I saw so many doing it online. being efficient is right, however it's hard when I can only glue one edge at a time (need about 12 clamps of the appropriate length for each edge), then I have to wait 30 minutes to move on. Gives me...

I've tried knives, chisels, blades, scrapers all, and never managed to get it very satisfactory, often wrecking the surface of the workpiece if it was real wood veneer. Happy to use a good edge trimming router to get fast and consistent results. My question was really whether it was "standard"...
