Tom Cancelleri Posted July 30, 2016 Author Report Share Posted July 30, 2016 I'm thinking layout 1 maybe a touch further away from the garage door. Big open for space would be nice. In other news, the table saw has the worst dust collection setup ever. They didn't even try to make it useful.

Orgo Man strikes again! I like version 2. If I had to build a bed or other giant project, I'd just move the bench temporarily. I don't even have that luxury in my shop but I make do.

-MattK- Posted August 17, 2016 Report Share Posted August 17, 2016 Tom, I just rescanned this thread because I remember the issue you had running the AC and having humid air sneak back in through the vent outside... Did you come to a good solution for that? I can't remember how it played out and didn't see it discussed too much here. thanks bud Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've been keeping the A/C at 73 in the shop which has also helped. I will eventually replace the exhaust vent with a seal spring loaded cap. Things have been so crazy the last 3ish weeks and I haven't touched the shop. I got in there today for about an hour to move the Roubo and the drum sander. I'm hoping to get in some work in there this weekend. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sent from my Nexus 6P using Tapatalk My Carbatec saw is basically the jet model you have. I agree with you re the top guard but I found the collection from the cabinet excellent. I replaced the top guard with the sawstop model. A bit of mucking around because I had to use the existing splitter and hybrid the sawstop guard onto it. Best collection ever!

Popular Post Tom Cancelleri Posted August 20, 2016 Author Popular Post Report Share Posted August 20, 2016 Made some more progress in the shop so far this weekend. The last 3 weeks have been too busy to get anything done. Moved the Roubo, got the drum sander kind of in position, not sure I really like it there, will need some tweaking or something. Labeled my electrical box, sans heater and ceiling 110v because i completely forgot about those. Ugh I don't want to take out the ptouch again. My OCD is glad the labels are hidden behind the door because they aren't perfect 90s, and the labels aren't s4s since I trimmed them with scissors.

Eric. Posted August 20, 2016 Report Share Posted August 20, 2016 That's awesome. My breaker boxes are nightmares. No labels, anywhere. So every time I need to mess with a switch or something...you know the routine...get on the phone with the wife... Now? Nope. Now? Nope. Now? Nope. Now? Nope. Now? Nope. Now? Yep. Sigh.

My guest room upstairs shares a breaker with the dining room light and 1 outlet bank. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wdwerker Posted August 20, 2016 Report Share Posted August 20, 2016 Sometimes it only makes sense if you are looking at a framed and dried in house under construction. Maybe a circut is full so the line to the panel catches that light on the way to the bedroom. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fireball Posted December 26, 2016 Report Share Posted December 26, 2016 Tom, bumping this to the top after reading through 14 pages for some final photos and final impressions of the system, ductwork and tool layout.

Popular Post Tom Cancelleri Posted December 26, 2016 Author Popular Post Report Share Posted December 26, 2016 I have to cleanup after my shop chaos from making Christmas gifts. Here's some that I took with my updated ducting. There's still some painting to do. Sent from my Nexus 6P using Tapatalk 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

-MattK- Posted December 26, 2016 Report Share Posted December 26, 2016 TC, middle picture above - what's the blast gate sticking out in the middle of the wall above the ductwork? Is that for make-up air when you're venting outside? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I bought a circuit tracer for about $40 made by Klein Tools. Plug one end into a socket, and then you wave this magic wand over the breakers until it detects the signal. It works maybe 75% of the time... https://www.amazon.com/Klein-Tools-ET300-Digital-Circuit/dp/B003LHJSY8 We've got one circuit which involves two outlets in the basement hallway, a GFCI in the main level laundry room, and 4 outlets on the exterior of the house. Fortunately the cable equipment is plugged in, so you know if something happened to trip the GFCI run to the laundry room. :-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is that for make-up air when you're venting outside? That blast gate connects to a 6" vent fan that exhausts when plugged in. The blast gate is hooked to a spring attached to the ceiling and a wire on the other side that I can pull and tie to keep it open and untie to close the vent.
