So easy, Why Did I Wait So Long

[PaulDoug]

Been having allergy problems that are getting worse the more I get into wood turning. I have been wanting to improve my ability to pick up dust when sanding. I've been thinking about it for several months but just kept finding other things to do. Yesterday I got busy and made this arm to adjust my dust collector on. Really works great. I can put it right up where the dust id now.

Now that is cool! My allergies get bad too. I wish I could afford one of those nice dust collector systems.

Good idea. The way I have the hood on my lathe it doesn't pickup much. Thanks for the idea. I'll name mine after you.

Very nice. I just may have to copy.

What collector are you using?

I have a Harbor Freight dust collector. I added a WynnEnvironmental canister filter to it years ago.
