Hey all, well the time has come to purchase the dust collector unit. Right now I'm leaning towards a 1 1/2 HP or the 2 HP General Unit. With the 1 micron cannister filter. Why? It's readily available and serviceable here in Canada.
I view the Dust as a safety device more than a convieience item, so I'm willing to put in a little extra work to get a good quality one.
The key here folks is that it has to be available here in Canada (Calgary).
A little background on the shop. It's an 18x20 garage shop that shares 1/2 with the car. The non mobile machines are on one side of the garage, while I move the more mobile ones out to the other half when I need the space (or the machine). After reading "Bill's Cyclone site" on dust collection I'm a little worried that everything is crap!
Any help would be appreciated.
