A few members have asked what is the best DC for lathes over the years. I agree with many others there is no perfect solution and why I wear a mask. But I did build a hopper that slides along 2 steel SHS for the length of the lathe. The base has an 4" oulet to my DC system.
A lot of the shaving fall in, the rest I just sweep up and throw in the hopper. Although only a small DC, it sucks well and I do notice the difference when I don't have it on.
Cheers
