Looking for some advice on a dust collection matter: I currently use my dust collector for the stationary machines, and the shop vac when using hand sanders, routers, etc. I'm wondering if I would be better off using the dust collector for the hand tools (powered) as well. The hose size of the shop vac drove me to my current methods; it was not a deliberate decision.
What is the efficiency of the dust collector when you choke it down too the 1" hose coming off the orbital Sander? Perhaps I need to put a Y in the 4", and have the 1" and a 2.5 or 3" nearby for air collection? Dust collectors are draw a big volume, but perhaps lest vacuum strength? Please share your expertise & advice...Thanks!
