    Default Toying with extraction layout

    I have a Laguna Fusion on order and am toying with best layout when I get an DE. Shed is 6x6 Titan with stud frame and DE must go inside or at back (I should not put at back due to sewer line) but that's most likely outcome. Shed houses garden equip and trailer as well as woodwork so not a lot of room after that.

    All items (except Bench drill, 4 drawer file cabinet and bench in rear right) are mobile. Currently I take linisher and router outside the shed to use. This obviously restricts things in bad weather.

    For a DE I am looking at something like Timbecon FM400 and using with 150 pipe. I would come through rear wall either just left of right of center.

    The thing I have struggled with is how to run pipe. Best method would be to use a drop from ceiling (going near floor seems to much of trip hazard) but have always anticipated problem from a drop when running larger items on tablesaw.

    I have modelled shed to scale with current setup (2nd image) that also shows proposed saw and another alternative with a drop included (1st image).

    Drop down from the ceiling for the TSmay not be so bad if you can arrange a swing-arm ducting boom that you can move from one side of the saw to the other.
    An alternative is up to 3 hook up points suspended from the ceiling.
    1) One at the back RHS of the saw which will do for all your docking and ripping
    2) One to the RHS of the fence which will cope with everything that uses the fence
    and maybe ?
    3) One for the LHS f the table when for some reason you are cutting a big sheet with no fence with more material on the RHS than the left

    Thanks Bob for input.

    The Fusion I think has the cabinet air intake on left side to the rear. With having to 2 drop points to RHS means of saw, I would in effect be doubling back increasing the line length. Would this be detrimental to extraction efficiency?
    From your comment it would seem it's better to have drops on RHS of the machine and not left as I was thinking. I have not seen any setups insitu to gain understandings.

    Not if its done in Hard PVC with wide radius bends.

    You can always have the drop down on the RHS and go along to the left rear.
