Scheppach HA1000 dust collector
Just wondering if anyone has experiences with the scheppach HA-1000 dusty? The shed needs some form of dust collection and I don't have a lot of room. Machine wise there is just the lathe and the triton. I'm no overly worried about my other power tools as I use them sparingly. The units are on sale at hare & forbes. I just need something to pick up the dust as it comes off my lathe. They look ok and HPLV sounds effective, they move 109cf a minute. I'm looking at this due to it being compact to live under the lathe so it's footprint is minimal. As I said room is a factor in this as part of my decision.
Dave,
hug the tree before you start the chainsaw.

This unit is basically a vacuum cleaner and will be moderately successful at collecting chips from small diameter (1") short (3") objects being turned on a wood lathe.
To collect the fine dust you will need around 10 times the rated collection rate which, given what I have measured on other dust collectors will be around half the real flow rates.
The added problem with these type of units is they can make more fine dust than they actually collect since the mince larger particles into smaller ones which pass straight through the filters and go on to fill the shed..
The best way for reducing this problem would be to put the unit outside - this also gets around the room (and noise) problem inside a shed.

Thanks Bob for your input and advice. Much appreciated as there was some food for thought in your reply. I will take it into consideration when making my decision and purchase.

Hi,
What about the Sherwood DC-50 - Compact Dust Extractor (https://www.timbecon.com.au/compact-dust-extractor). They claim to filter to .5 micron. I am looking at these as i only have a SCMS (in a hood) and a bandsaw. Maybe in the future i would get a router. Would one of these hooked up to the hood of the SCMS help? and then easily switch to the bandsaw? I only have 1/2 of a single car garage workshop, so a full collection system would eat up a far amount of space (no ability to put it outside) and $$.
Thanks
