I really need assistance with deciding which 3 hp dusty to purchase. I have a sparky ready to wire the new workshop within the fortnight and a concreter ready to lay the base for the external housing (not sure what footprint I need) but I don't know what to get!!!!
Workshop is now built and is approx 4.7m x 3.7m. This thread has a drawing of shed layout - post #16 http://ift.tt/1Kx8qDD
I have read the threads and the fantastic advice on the forum so have decided on a 3hp sitting outside and will install 6" ducting. Most likely only one machine going at a time. Already have BS, lathe, router. Looking at getting thicknesser/planer, drill press, (S)CMS, maybe belt/disk sander.
Main questions I have are:
1. I noticed that just about all the DCs come with 3X4" inlets. How hard will that be to modify to 1x6" and is it only some where this can be performed?
2. Are pleated filters still advisable if the unit is to be housed outside?
3. For units that come with a remote control, will that control work through a steel framed, metal sheeted, plywood lined shed wall?
4. Does the DC need to plug into an external 15amp GPO or should it come through the wall with the switch inside? Is the latter better for using a remote control?
Every time I locate a specific make of 3 hp of DC I google the make with "woodwork forum" and there seems to be limitations with each one.
Help. Please. (Hubby has said "Just go and buy one. You've been researching them all year. How hard is it?")
