The relay to switch the power on is freakin brilliant!

This is a valuable addition to my woodwork collection kzfaq.infoUgkxbnOKZBE4evMO5V2vroHeCjq6d_MV6wJO I still will rate this woodwork plan as the best in my reference library. It always seem to stand out from the rest whenever you go through the library. This is a masterpiece.

Hello Here is France. Very nice subject in this vidéo. I try to put this in my workshop. And very nice music too, I love it. See you soon.

When I typed in DIY dust collection system, THIS is what I wanted to see.

Pretty sick man! I was thinking that it might get annoying having the system running all the time, and wondering how you were going to balance the system, and then BOOM! You added the sensors and relays! Mind blown, great job.

These builds I like, no talking, just the working sounds. I can figure out the dimensions and materials and adaptations to my situation myself. But this video is loaded with great ideas and I'm gonna steal quite a few of them!

Best dust collection video on KZfaq! Probably watched it 5x.

my favorite dust collector video, love that you have flip flops on too. man after my own heart.

Only thing I would have done differently would be to make as many of the 90 degree fittings, as you could, by using two 45 degree fittings instead. Much better air flow. Great job.

This is a great video! Good production. I really like the whole setup. Plus, it really showcases your ingenuity, and creativity. It truly shows the DIY in a guy. I appreciate that. Once again, great job man! 👍👌

Canadians love mastercraft! I moved from Canada to Seattle and made sure to keep every mastercraft tool! Canada!

Holy buttermilk biscuits. That switch system at the gates was an amazing touch. I have 0 skill in general things but would like to start a hobby. Seeing ideas like this really ignites a desire to do more. Thanks for the video.

my only question is, how could this genius video receive thumbs down? they’re probably mad because they couldn’t do something like this...this was amazing

Great build! I've gotta say, the editing of this video is A++

I love this idea! I'm in the process of putting together my shop and a dedicated dust collection and air filter system is at the top of my list.

The relay switch... You are on God Level son. My wife said, "This boy has won some science fair project's in his life."

I like the low voltage relay start. Showing the details of that system would make a good video. Glad to see you aren't venting the dust inside! Take a look at Bill Pentz website about dust collection. He has more information there than anywhere else I've found. He's wrong about not being able to safety vent inside through a filter but his website is a great resource for information and ideas. For your system, if you switch from 90's and Tees to larger radius bends and Y's, your flow rates will increase significantly. I tested a system that I built with a 90 degree fitting and it was dropping half the pressure of the entire system. I got rid of the 90 and my flow rate went up 30%. If your system is really capable of pulling 1700 cfm (it would have to be 220V 3hp or more to do that, most collectors way over rate flow rates) then you need 8" ducts to not reduce flow. I doubt the system is flowing over 500 cfm as it is. but if that's enough then it doesn't hurt anything to leave it as is. The motor draws less current with more restrictions (that's not intuitive but you can prove it's true but checking motor current with a clamp meter and changing the amount of restriction) so it just saves power. I hope that is helpful information. Reading through Bill Pentz site is a great way to learn what works best and what your options are.

BRILLIANT... 💪💪💪👏👏👏👏 One of de BEST Practice Vidos ever. I will show all my Friends. THANKS FOR THAT VIDEO!

Excellent implementation of several clever ideas and use of materials. Great editing, too. For once, I appreciate all of the positive comments. They are spot-on.Thanks everybody.

Someone give this man a damn metal. That's the best collection system I've seen. 👍👍

I need a v8 and a 🤦🏽‍♀️ lol I just realized you eliminated the need for stressing over pipe fittings and connections by screwing and cutting out the correct size pipe needed for a specific tool in each blastgate! Duh, I’d never have thought of that and after procrastinating on setting up my very own minor dust collection I feel like this way allows me to problem solve easily by drilling or cutting out the correct hole size of each connection into my own built blastgates. Thank you and I wish more builders would try this rather than melt a bunch of pvc pipes and break their wrists trying to shove pipes together lol

Great project! Excellent quality video as well! There's so many videos on YT with some guy mumbling, rambling, stuttering and stammering their way through the mostly-unnecessary explanation AND terrible camera work. A+ for this video!

awesome stuff, just about to start work on upgrading my shop, that relay switch thing is a wicked idea

Some great ideas there. Over the years I have ended up with more than five powertool brands. I have been trying to work out a system which uses a house vacuum with PVC and pool hose or something similar. You just helped solved some of my biggest problems. Great to see a channel that doesn't just use off the shelf solutions. Not all of us can find them in countries where small populations mean less consumer choice. My workshop can get damp so I will probably substitute perspex or acrylic for my gates to reduce the chance of swelling. You just gained a new subscriber by the way.

Finally!! A dust collection vid that shows something useful. The relay idea rocks. Also like the simplicity of your blast gates - some designs are total overkill.

great video! thanks for the many details and solutions and keeping the pace rapid, informative with no droning narrative!!

Brilliant, especially the low voltage switches on the 'doors'. I will improve my DIY cyclone system. Thanks!!!

Innovative and well thought out. Loved the homemade blast gates. Was thinking of doing something like this in my shop. Would also have to include the relay power switch. It's been said before. BRILLIANT.

Great idea so everything is dust free lg Rene

Someone has probably already said this... The irony is how much dust you had to create in order to build a dust collection system! :P Great work!

Endlich ein Video, das jeder versteht. Auch ich, welcher der englischen Sprache nicht mächtig ist. Ohne überflüssige Erklärungen und Kommentare. Die Bilder sprächen für sich selbst.

Great video/build~!! Just when I thought I had my own dust collection mapped out, I come across your video. Love the blast gate control of the DC motor~! Back to the drawing board for mods... ;-)

Next time your in CT just swing by my garage and throw the same set up in real quick. Thanks!!!

That was awesome . Need to do that to my shop

Well, your caulking could be improved, but other than that, awesome! Love the magnetic switches!

Don't know the last time you heard this. YOUR WORK IS AMAZING!! Thank you for sharing.

Man that was awesome👍

Great content & verbal clarity keep up the great content.

This was the coolest thing I've seen in a long time! Excellent!

2020. I like your design, especially the shutoffs, BIG THANK YOU.

Another fantastic build/video/idea...thanks for posting this.

Well gotta say one of the best dust extraction systems i have seen, and the video was well edited. don't know why the thumbs down be nice if they left a comment saying why. All the best.

Bruh! Those relays just blew my mind!

One of the best executed dust collection builds I've seen. Well done, thanks for sharing.

Awesome work. But my Shop is Not big enough for something like this. I use a mobile cyclone cart. Got here by your comment over at John Heisz scrap bin Channel. 😉

Love the video man! Really clever use of materials and methods. Smiled mercilessly at the three headed hose adapter you made, damn ingenious.👍

What a great video. Well put together - not a lot of talking. I love the low tech no tech simplicity yet high functionality of your design. Thank you - subscribed.

Great job! Some company's wish they a vacuum system so good! Thanks for sharing.

I was going to exhaust my dust collector outside like you did, but I didn't want to lose the heat in the winter and my meager air conditioning in the summer. The turnover for the volume of the space is pretty surprising.

You just earned your "Professor Dust Collector" Badge.

Very nice job! One of the best i've ever seen on the net. Congratulations.

The idea was very good, the suction was working . INSTALLED a directional flap to open & close whichever machine that operates so that suction will be strong enough.. BUT then he can have a better distribution of air volume with constant FLOW rate if the diameter of the pipe is reduced as it goes further by using the formula Q = VA.. This is just to share my technical knowledge & experience. GREAT. very useful for wood working home industry

Holy crap that's useful. Just built a platform bed and now I have to sweep and vac a redwood out of my shop

The switches to power on the dust collector is great, where did you get everything you need?

Holy crap that so well thought out! Excellent job. Love the on/off switch.

That is by far the best DIY dust control system I ever seen on you tube. You did a great job on a scale of 1to10 I'd give you a 100. Great job

I do like the low voltage dc relay control operation. Does your entire system operate only by this method?

I love the editing you did - oh, and the dust collector was cool too. What software did you use for the editing?

That's fantastic. I totally need that in my shop!

Great video! Good idea on the on/off relay; I need to build something like this in my shop.

Nice work and great video, I really enjoyed it. One question for you, where did you get the hose for the dril lpress? Thanks

Well done. One question though: The DC sucks air from the shop and presses it outside. Did you make a hole somewhere else in the shop so fresh air can get into it or are there already enough holes (=air leaks)? Because if there is no such opening (or number of openings), you would create a vacuum inside your shop and the effectiveness of your DC is lower as it could be. Just a thought.

Super simple design. Effective. I'm sure some people will say all kinds of things about static/sparks/flaming death... Not me. I'll be doing the same soon with my new workshop when built.

Gotta love a thoroughbred Canuck! Awesome vid bro 👍

[southern accent] "Them are some pretty pilot holes you got there boy"

Great video, Brad! How are you finding the 4" (?) PVC? Is it fine or do you get any blockage in the system. Keep up the good work!

That was brilliant!! I'm in the process of building my dust extraction system. You have inspired me : )

Great stuff. Only thing I would change is the hard 90 turns for 2 45's.

As a wannabe employer, I need to figure out how to hire time-lapse workers.

siliconjob 1/10. rest very noice!!

One word, "Genius."

Absolutely amazing. Great job.

Bad idea cementing all your joints. I would have just taped them it means you can re use them if you ever shift shops.

The switch was the best part of that. I wished you went more into that

Great job! Thanks for taking the time to film and edit!!!

Great video, great editing. Love the magnetic switches on the blast gates for the dust collector relay.

You're a real Craftsmen I really enjoyed watching this you earned but I respect ,their for , I subscribed and thumb up . As soon as you HAVE THE MEANS ie...dont go in debt, please buy a sawstop table saw, I purchased one 5 years ago worth it .Good job buddy good job.

Awesome vid/tutorial. No yammering like so many other vids. Just quickly showing the world how to do this yourself. I'm gonna have to make one of these myself. Thanks!

awesome job putting the exhaust vent right above the door.

This is a beautiful build and I got some great ideas following it, but I wouldn’t be cementing those joints because I odds are high that at some point I’m going to want to move things around a bit.

This is perfect. I plan on using a similar system to add to my mobile workbench that I made

I think it was very well done. i bet it would last forever. I am buying a Shopsmith dust collector this weekend.

Thanks. I just want to say, YOU ARE PRO!

Great video! A LOAD of content packed into 11 minutes.

Love the "on" switch, great idea. SUBSCRIBED!

Great, love the way turning on and off

You hammered that hole out like the "FLASH'

Loved it!!! Need to do that in my garage......I hate sweeping up all the sawdust!!

That's brilliant, you've given me some ideas for my own sawdust collection.

GREAT job, very well thought out! !! !!!

WOW! Thumbs Up and Subbed! Can't believe I JUST found you! Glad I did! Looking forward to seeing all your videos! Have A Super Week!.....Gus

Pretty dang nice! That's exactly what I want to do - switch the DC on at each blast gate. I know remotes are popular, but I want to remember to close each gate after using it, so combining with a switch makes a lot of sense to me. Gotta say, though, that takes commitment to glue your PVC pipes together!

Installing the DC coil relay is a brilliant idea. Very nice video. You did a great and inspiring job.

Great system! Be careful not to touch the pvc pipe while dust is being sucked up. The static electricity can give you one hell of a fright! I learned this the hard way lol. Can b discharged if it becomes a problem by earthing system.

Love how its so fast! and also stickers everywhere haha! Thank you for your video!

Outstanding...I am just building my shed and found this really interesting and relevant.

Very nice job. Love the relays.

Super build. Well presented, too. Thank you for the good work example.

Very nice job! Don't forget to caulk the slip joints on that metal 90 coming out of the collector, because they induce a leak. You will notice an improvement. You can caulk them or use the metal tape.

Very nice bud. Some fine innovation.
