Hi Mike, do you have to remove pipe to change blade?
Hi Sachakins,
Yes, but the pipe is easy to remove and install. The pipe is attached to the plywood, and the plywood is attached to the saw with two rare earth magnets.

Neat solution, thanks for the infoHi Sachakins,

This is the new Yorkleen.
Mine is the older green model, that I picked up off fleabay for £50 about 18 months back, plus I got a spare drum too, very lucky looking at new price now.
Also worth reading this other thread titled
CamVac 386-5 or Axminster AW118CE
Sorry don't know how to link to it directly.

That’s a good idea.One less obvious use of a biggish HVLP like my Axminster ADE 2200 is that you can leave it on unconnected and it will clear dusty air in a room quite quickly. Trail the pipe (4") to somewhere near the middle and just leave it there.
It's not a HEPA filter but as it gets used it filters finer and finer, until you next give the bags a wash.
You may want to clarify if you are actually looking to reduce airborne dust (the kind that kills your lungs) or just want to clear out chips and plan to protect your lungs with something else.I’m wanting to set up some dust extraction.

Dust is also airborne for hours after creating it, so removing mask when you shut off machine is not a wise move.Thanks - it’s mainly the mess that I’m thinking about and keeping the insides of the machine clean.
I use a mask when the machine is in operation, and I don’t use it for long periods of time so I think this should be adequate to protect my lungs. It’s the only woodworking power tool I have (before this was just hand tools) so I’ve never felt like dust was a huge problem (though I accept it’s probably still airborne even with hand planing etc)
Sounds like you don't need a dust extractor at all...... It’s the only woodworking power tool I have (before this was just hand tools) so I’ve never felt like dust was a huge problem (though I accept it’s probably still airborne even with hand planing etc)
Being controversial as ever Jacob Everybody needs some sort of extraction, and even with hand tools an air cleaner would be a good edition.Sounds like you don't need a dust extractor at all.
I didn't need one until I got a combi.Being controversial as ever Jacob Everybody needs some sort of extraction, and even with hand tools an air cleaner would be a good edition.

PT and saw throw dust in the air but a bandsaw doesn't - it all goes down below, on a 352 at least.
Correct. Didn't. Band saw, B&D drill, router. Everything else by hand. Long time ago.So your workshop doesnt have a cross cut saw like a slide mitre etc
Back then it was the notorious AEG Maxi 26 which I thought was brilliant. Later got a Minimax LAB 300 de luxe! Which really is brilliant!No worse dust chucker than a mitre saw. Although the festool is supposedly very efficient in that department.
Which combi do you have ?
Thats very nice, though costing a pretty penny.Minimax LAB 300 de luxe
I had an idea for using a bank(about 4 or 5) of computer fans mounted on a frame that you place at a slightly open window to draw air out the window, and i would think taking any airborne dust with it. As they're low voltage/wattage, you could wire all together and run through a low power adaptor.Air filters seem to be yet another cost…wonder whether anyone has had much luck setting up a home made one? Similar to this?
I'd thought about using one of these for a filter?Thats very nice, though costing a pretty penny.
Nearly as expensive as my *Ebike.
* I've never understood how a bike can cost as much as a huge cast iron machine, weighs 10x as much and will likely last 10x as long.

Air would be drawn into the workshop through the door etc and pushed out the window. Its not filtered, but would go some ways to removing dust laden air that would otherwise hang in the room.
Yebbut you try riding a 2cwt bike!Thats very nice, though costing a pretty penny.
