I've been using a HF DC with flexible hose for a while now. Moving the hose everytime I use another tool is getting old so it's time to plumb the shop. I've been getting alot of good ideas here and plan to plumb with S&D but the question is... I have a 12' high ceiling in my 2 car garage (I know life's rough), will plumbing the DC up to the ceiling and dropping down (for the center drops) be a problem? I'm concerned that trying pull the dust from the BT3100 and anything else I want to connect in the middle of the shop, (jointer for instance) might be a problem. I've not done the cannister conversion yet on the DC and have read here that that will increase the CFM, but still 8-9 feet up and then up to 20' over seems like a lot to ask of the DC w/ or w/o the conversion. Any body else have high ceilings? Is 12' not a problem or am I in for trouble? Should I forget about going up and just connect center placed tools around the perimeter of the shop?
