SDR 35 pipe and fittings with HVAC foil tape... your shop looks like mine! I have a Grizzly G0944 & Oneida Super DD XL, 6" main to the center of the shop, then y-split to two 4" sub-runs to each main tool location (some 4" and some further y-split to 2.5"). Finals are blast gates and short runs of flex hose. SDR 35 is so much cheaper than schedule 40 that many seem use... and much, much lighter. I also used some 5/16" sheet metal screws to lock each section before taping. Tape seems to work just fine as long as you take the time to make sure it is pressed down properly. I found no need to use caulking. I went with Woodpeckers butterfly blast gates... giving them a try to see how well they work and hopefully don't clog.

@BryanW163 3 года назад

Awesome setup! A suggestion for sealing the tubes instead of the tape. Drill 2-3 holes for a small set screws then run a small bead of silicone around the edge. When you need to move or replace a section all you have to do is remove the screws and cut the silicone.

@nneiil 3 года назад

Just thought I’d let you know that SDR 35 doesn’t mean sewer and drain. It stands for Standard Dimension Ratio which tells you how thick the wall of the pipe is compared to the diameter.

for the minimal use of flex duct, I use 4" abs pipe (black). you can hammer this into the 6" pvc...the 4 " flex will fit over the ABS fitting nicely.

@stephandelange1776 2 года назад

Hi, first let me say that I really liked your video. It gave me a lot to think about, it was pretty instructive. But I have a couple of questions. One is ask about the piping! PVC vs the flexible hoses. Now I know that the ridges of the flexhose affect the pressurized suction. But let's just say, I have a very small shop "a bedroom turned into a shop, small shop to be exact", and I have a fair amount of flexible hose, and I want to build my dust collection system. It Would be for about 6 tools, or 6 hoses, 4 tools, and 2 loose hoses for hand tools and clean up. So meaning 6 Blast-Gates. Now here's the first question. If I would cut the flexible hoses, so they would reach each separate connector, to each Y connector "precisely" fairly tight, no bending of the hoses. They would fit pretty much to the exact length. Could it do as good OR close to as good as the PVC "as a some-what substitute" OR even as tight as possible the ridges would still cause a certain amount of loss of suction? And 2nd. My Shop-Vac is a 2 1/2" hose 6.5HP. Now, Should I use 2 1/2" PVC piping all around? Or should I use a widener and use 4" pipping? Should I get better suction with the 4" or it would be the exact same with the 2 1/2"? Please give me your professional opinion! I have 1 shot, so I need to do this right. Thanks for your time and great video. Thumbs Up!

@InspireWoodcraft 3 года назад

Looks good! Man I need dust collection so bad. I'm trying my hardest to move into a different shop within a year or so and then dust collection will be somewhere near the top of the list. To run it now I will have to upgrade power in the shop first and I don't want to put any more money into permanent things where I'm at now.

@BruceAUlrich 3 года назад

Thank you! I totally get that. I had 220 run on multiple circuits about 3 years ago and I’m just now using it with this tool. Ha! I guess I future proofed it pretty well.

@Bivouac21 5 месяцев назад

Hi Bruce, thanks for the video!I I bought 100' of 6" SDR 32.5 and it's wider than the SDR 35. Where can I get fittings for the SDR 32.5? Is there a way to used the SDR 35 fittings with the SDR 32.5 pipe? I bought a lot of thew SDR 35 fittings and I can't seem to find any reasonably priced SDR 32.5 fittings...

@BruceAUlrich 5 месяцев назад

Oh man...I am definitely not the authority on pipes and fittings. I really don't know anything about SDR 32.5. I don't believe I've ever come across them. You might consider finding a cheaper alternative and heating up something and kind of forming the fittings if need be.

@BruceAUlrich 3 года назад

Thanks! Now that I've got it up and running, I'll be gathering my thoughts. I think I'm going to do a price breakdown on all of this piping next.

@IABoomerTube 3 года назад

Would it have been easier to roll the tubes into the bandsaw blade instead of doing multiple interrupted cuts on the chop saw? Something to consider for the next air line upgrade?

@BruceAUlrich 3 года назад

Yeah, maybe so. I thought about that, but I didn’t have a good way to hold the work piece and with my miter saw stand, I didn’t have to hold the 10’ pipe while I made the cut.

@jasonkite3415 3 года назад

I had to put screws in all of my vertical connections. I tried just taping them and it will work for some time. It eventually failed. Not sure if you are just using tape, but it looks that way from the video.

@BruceAUlrich 3 года назад

Yes, I’m just using tape. Hope it will hold up, but I’ll keep this in mind in case I see some failure.

@scottb.2022 3 года назад

I have the same dust collector and have been looking at hard piping it, but the logical place for me is against the wall like you have it. How are you dealing with cleaning the filter canister? Looks like you can only get to it from one side?

@BruceAUlrich 3 года назад

I have the clean out pipe for the filter canister facing away from the wall so I can easily get to it. And that side of the housing swings open fully so I can unbuckle the whole filter assembly if need be.

@kevinscoolshitandstuff2537 3 года назад

Thanks for the video. I just got my 28x40 wood shop done and now I’m laying out my dust collection system. Couple questions , I may have missed it in the video but what HP is your new system? Have you had any problems or anything you would do different now? I have the grizzly 3hp for my old shop and hoping to repurpose it. Thanks for you time! Great video

@Celticty 3 года назад

Bruce this turned out great! I never would have thought about using pvc pipes. Is it cheaper than the piping dedicated to vacuum systems

@BruceAUlrich 3 года назад

Appreciat it! Yes, PVC like I used is considerably cheaper than the Norfab stuff that I've seen. The 8" PVC jumped up a pretty good bit, which is why I had to reduce it to 6" right out of the machine. I'm hoping this will serve me for a long time to come!

@dirtybaywoodshop-joeporter5650 3 года назад

Thanks, Joe! Yeah, I dealt with a single shop vac for a while also. Mobile 2 stage would be a good way to go. I don't know much about the Grizzly one, but just looked it up. Looks like a decent unit. It's a little more, but you might look at the Laguna Cflux 1 also. It's mobile and 2 stage. I know a couple of people who have it and like it.

You definitely knows it’s on when you’re in the room. You almost feel it as much as hear it. Not sure if that makes sense. They say it is something like 77Db which is pretty quiet for a 3HP machine.

@@BruceAUlrich Gotcha, that's not bad. My mini-gorilla is probably 80db and seems a bit higher pitched compared to your P-flux in the video. It's also only a 1.5hp motor I believe. HEPA is definitely the way to go. I'll prob get one next time Laguna has their 10% off sale

I have the same unit but currently using the 4” (3 ports) on the unit and my separation isn’t that great, I’ve been told the flex pipe is causing too much turbulence which is reducing the units ability to separate properly.
