Shop vac adapters can be purchased through Grizzly, Woodworkers Supply, Rockler and Harbor Freight used to carry them but I can not find anymore.
These adapters work but because the 4" end is the...

It seems that this has totally gotten off topic, CarveWright has stated in the past that simply cutting the clear cover for a dust collector accessory won't void the warranty.

Thanks for your purchase of my DUST DEVIL and the great review!!
Happy Dust Free carving.
Nice neat job adding the shop vac reducer to the Dust Devil, it looks like you cut off the 4" connection and cut down the adapter. I am guessing you then cemented the adapter to the Dust Devil?...

Because this is a sale item without a coupon if you have a 20% or 25% off coupon Harbor Freight will usually allow you to apply that as well getting the price as low as $149.
For anyone in the Branson / Springfield Missouri area interested in seeing the CarveWright machine in action I just joined the Start "U" team and would be glad to arrange a demo.

Regardless of how the ground works they are effective at reducing static discharges to both a person as well as the CarveWright machine and because of this are a good precaution to prevent damage...
The fact that to be effective a bare wire needs to run through the duct work and hose did not just come from me.
Every ground kit sold whether from Rockler, Shop Fox, Grizzly, Woodcraft all have...
This NFPA code only applies to commercial manufactures, most home shops use PVC ductwork or just directly attach a plastic hose from the dust collector to the machine.
The requirement for the wire to run inside the hose comes from the instructions from any of the ground kits sold by dust collection manufactures.
Below is the instruction sheet from Rockler,...
I agree with Floyd a shop vac is more prone to static buildup than a dust collector due to the smaller hose and higher velocity.
However, to be effective a bare copper ground wire needs to run...
To be effective the ground wire must be bare and run inside the hose and duct work. Below is the instruction sheet for one of the grounding kits from Rockler.

Grounding a dust collection system is always a good idea. For Dust Devil users a metal foil tape has been run through the plastic dust hood that is bonded to the metal frame of the CarveWright...

For the ground to work properly a bare stranded copper wire needs to run through the hose as this is where any static is likely to build up. The small 14 or 12 ga stranded wire should only require...
The amount of dust created by a CarveWright machine is very small compared to other woodworking machines and static is built up by dust particles colliding with each other. Because of this a planer...

When you carve a part over about 3 - 4 ft you need to use outfeed tables on each end to support your workpiece. Even though you added 3 1/2" to each end of your sled which keeps the sled under the...
I just looked and CarveWright shows the complete head cover assembly availible for $39.64 which at worst case may cost more than just the cover but don't show as back ordered.

I don't recommend bypassing the cover switches as they are a safety to prevent the cut motor from starting while changing bits and also stop the machine when the cover is raised. The cut for the...
