Ah yes the George looks good although a fair bit dearer.. How much liquid do you think will make it to the hoover do you think? I' was thinking more of little bursts of lubricant rather than fully flowing or water...


The reason I want dust extraction is to collect at the source as I'm not going to be working in the biggest space so can't have shards everywhere..


My plan was to attach a suction hose and clear flexible plastic skirt around the cutter so nothing escapes out and is collected at the source.. Then attach perspex sheets around the machine to stop anything else making a mess..


This should work for my wood projects etc.. but I don't think it'll be sufficient for cutting aluminium. So I was thinking of attaching another hose to the hood so that it can blow air to release swarfs or some liquid for lubrication.. not 100% sure yet..

Does that sound plausable? Or am I on the wrong track? Will the dust cyclone not like metal shards?
