Cyclone Dust Collector Woodworking Plan
In designing and outfitting WOOD Magazine's Idea Shop 3 basement shop with a cyclone dust collector, we had several objectives in mind. We wanted a space-efficient unit with minimal noise, dust-free construction, and convenience of use. To meet those objectives we designed a unit using a 760 CFM, 1-1/2 horsepower, 62-82 decibel dust collector. This size blower is more than adequate for a small shop. We built the entire wood framework from one 4x8 sheet of of 3/4" birch plywood.

Tired of muscling your tools around the shop when you need to use them or clean around them? If so, try this money- and back-saving solution'a four-wheeled tool base for moving heavy woodworking machines quickly and easily. Once you build one (or more), you'll wonder how you got by without it.
Measurements are adjustable to fit your own tools.
