Hey everybody,
Hope you are all going to have a great weekend! I am curious, has anybody used any of the Fein Turbo Vacs as a dust extraction/collection system? They seem to be made for more continuous operation. I am not sure what the CFM rating is. Can anybody tell me what the minimum CFM rating needed for the CW is? Thanks, Michael

Arent they pretty pricey thou? It seems to me last time I looked you could get a regular DC from harbor freight or grizzley for less than the fein. I do love Fein tools, but they come with a hefty price tag.

I have a Fein and they are a nice powerful quiet vac but not going to give you the performance a dust collector will. I would look into a 650 cfm or higher DC. They are made to run hours at a time and will give you a lot more volume of air movement.

Many in the Shop Bot Community use the Fein Vac's for a Table Hold Down....

It would work but a dust collector is better...
