Shop upgrades
I can't invest in a dust collection system right now. So, I am looking to attach a hood to the lathe and use a shop vac for suction. The vac that I am considering is 5.5 peak hp and boasts 195 cfm. For 60$ more, I can get a unit with 6.5 hp and 210 cfm. Do you think that this would be money well spent or is the 5.5 hp/195 cfm sufficient?
Next question: If SWMBO will loosen the purse strings a little more, I want to aquire a benchtop joiner and a benchtop bandsaw. What units would you gents recommend?
Thanks,
Jeff (shortcast)
