But maybe that's just me. At least it isn't taken.

You make an excellent point. :D

Pheonix, I'll be sure to check them out.

Thanks all for the replies!

So... the purifier I mentioned is rubbish; I kind of expected that, for the price tag.

I'm still leaning towards a shopvac-driven cyclone, as a means of catching...

Man, what I wouldn't give to be able to walk away from the desk for an hour every day, just to make dust! :D

Would've grabbed one but I'm...

And I thought this was going to be a bad joke... turned out to be anything but. :U

That's some beautiful work, ww. Thanks for sharing it with us.
