: Check out past issues of Wood Magazine--maybe up to two years ago. They had
: plans for a home-made cyclone collector that may be more affordable. Good
: luck. Tom

I used an "attic exhaust fan" from Home Depot, ($35.00) with 4 20" X 20" furnace filters in a plywood case. Put rollers on the case for portability and the fan is rated at 1250 CFM air flow. Works great. Not sure of the name, but the idea came from one of the small shop books I picked up at the library. Ric
