 Exceeds Expectations!Dec 20, 2009
By Nicholas Hoehl
"Shotgun"
After reading a bunch of reviews, I knew Jet was the way to go. Then, with the help of a book called Dust Collection Basics, I figured out what CFM, FPM and static pressure I would need for my table saw, miter saw, jointer, bandsaw and downdraft table. The answer was on the border between the DC-600 and DC-1100. I was more concerned about the noise than additional price, but was VERY pleased to find out that this machine is MUCH quieter than I anticipated. Of course, I'm used to an over-worked shop-vac (bad bearings) so though it's not exactly silent, it is a great improvement.
I built a Thein cyclone (Google it for plans, easy to build and works GREAT!) to place on a 30 gallon galvanized trash can, and to save space, I inverted the blower motor and hung it on the wall right over the cyclone can. Now, within the same footprint, I have a 2 cycle DC setup that's safer and easier to empty, and cost me about $25 more! Then I set up each machine with JDS blast gates - I know me... if the switch is across the shop, I'll skip it for "just one cut..." then wind up with a face full of dust because most cuts are just one!
I rationalized upgrading to the 1 micron filter by considering the health problems related to dust inhalation. They go WAY beyond black kleenex and "lung cookies." I figured a couple hundred bucks now, or thousands in hospital bills and medications later. You can decide for yourself. ;o)
I will say that I was surprised to find out that, when paired with Rockler's Dust Right master system (giant 4" vacuum wand) it won't pick up screws or even zip-tie cutoffs, but it picks up every speck of dust within 12" of it! If I use a reducer, it'll pick up just about anything with the increase in velocity.
If you're reading this, you've alread made the first good decision - get a dust collector. I can't say whether it's the best around, but I'm impressed enough so far to actually sit down and write a review.
By the way, if you can't afford a full-fledged system, check out Rockler's cyclone for a 5 gal. pail and combine it with your shop-vac after replacing the filter and using a drywall/fine dust bag. The big chunks go into the cyclone, and the bag only gets filled with the finest of particles so you'll have infrequent changes. BUT - you won't get the volume of air of a DC, so your saws will still spit some dust up.

 Needed a little work with a tap and die set.Jun 14, 2010
By Eugene D. Brooks III
I bought this dust collector to support a "dust free" hardwood floor install and to use later on in a wood shop. There were minor problems in assembling the dust collector. I had to tap one 6mm hole that was missing threads in order to assemble the air intake. I also had to run a 10mm die down the threaded rod on the top of the filter, correcting a taper, in order to get the nuts onto it. This was easy to do as I have the metric tap and die set, but it would pose a problem if you don't. Once assembled, the dust collector works great and is reasonably quiet.

When I finally got the dust collection system it was very easy to assemble. It only took maybe 30 minutes to put together. It seems very well made. I've tried to use a 5hp shop vac to do the job but could never get all of the dust that you make doing wood working projects. I will get the 1 micron canister for this system in future. But for now this will do just fine. I did add a 21Ft DustRight hose from Rockler and converted all my machines to the 4" hose fittings. I really wish there was some sort of industry standard for hose attachment fittings. It seems more time consuming to get them all converted then it did putting the dust collector together
