I have found a new way to empty dust extractors
Tidying up my garage today awaiting delivery of new tablesaw I noticed that my SIP dust extractor bag (the topbag) was looking dirty, so I removed and then I looked down the shute (the first time in 4 years) and suddenly thought, why don't I use my other dust cylinder extractor to suck the rubbish out of the bottom sip dustbag.
Now I wont have to struggle to put a new bag on that machine each time its fill up. Its much easier to empty the Record cannister.

Emptying the bag
Sometimes the simplest solution is the best. You still have to lift it but you don't have the hassle of removing the bag. Good thinking.

A mate of mine has solved the bag problem by simply having PVC pipe run out of his workshop into an open pit into which he throws a match every so often.

Hey - why not take the refinery approach all the way and put up a stack with a gas torch that is activated by the dusty switch ie a burn as you go type? That would keep the neighbours on their toes. Originally Posted by Different

I like the way they do it here.
Cyclone outside that drops into an incinerator.
Once it's full, close off the cyclone (or not) and let it all burn...
Kyoto protocol be damned!
