    Default Dust sanding enclosure

    Not really a dust extraction problem, but a way of getting around the issue of dust when sanding small pieces.

    If it's in the wrong section, could the Mods please move it.

    It looks like he's venting the chamber with a shop vac and which is why he requires a fairly air tight chamber.

    If he vented the chamber with a half decent DC he could remove most of the front of the chamber making it a lot easier to access and to use power tools inside the chamber.

    When using a more powerful DC, restricting dust escape from a process like sanding can be done in other ways such using curtains around a bench, or using a downdraft table. This further increases access and ease of use.

    I was thinking the same thing, why not use a down draft table with a 6” suction?

    Most probably because he doesn't have the room to fit a full size DE in his cramped two car garage?

    Fair point. One day I’ll have a huge shed too!
