    Default Dusty mods

    Picked up some 2ndhand pieces and and added them to my 2hp scheppach dusty.
    cut the old chute off then marked it out on the new piece of jet, cut the tube off and fitted using combination of screws,rivets and silicone.
    So now it's got a pleated filter and the jet vortex.

    If not it would be a significant turbulence generator and flow restrictor.

    The real gain on such a system would be to open up the intake to take 6" ducting and then run 6" ducting.

    What did you remove that ducting joint from the old DC with? Was it a plasma cutter, or a can opener?

    Yeah, I've tried the cold chisel and hammer method on spot welds too - never works does it!
