Vacuum cleaner / dust extractor

[Neale]

I've been using one of these for a few years now. Stands a lot of abuse, and at that price when it does eventually blow up, I'll just bin it and get another one. I seem to remember getting the optional filter for it - like a car air cleaner filter element. It just gets cleaned from time to time - can't remember now why the original element isn't as good, it's so long since I got it! But it's not quiet. Not horrendous but I wear ear defenders more for the vacuum cleaner than the CNC router...

BTW, watching your video - I wouldn't bother slowing the ramp speed with cuts like that. Just ramp in at the usual cutting speed. Probably could take a bit more depth of cut as well as more cutting speed, but if you're still feeling your way with the machine, I can understand a bit of caution! And it throws the dust and chips even further...
