Hobby Shop layout with 2HP Dust Collector
Here is a perfect example of a workshop with a 2HP dust collector which supports five machines. Layout of this type of system is simple and you don’t need to be an engineer. Just start with each machine and work your way back to the collector laying everything out in a drawing as shown in the one below. Please take note to double check all your measurements – as Norm Abram would say “measure twice, cut once”.
Hobby Shop layout with 3HP Dust Collector
Here is a perfect example of a workshop with a 3HP dust collector which supports seven machines. Layout of this type of system is simple and you don’t need to be an engineer. Just start with each machine and work your way back to the collector laying everything out in a drawing as shown in the one below. Please take note to double check all your measurements – as Norm Abram would say “measure twice, cut once”.
