[Digitalwoodshop]

Guess what i do for a living Dan....

LOL...

Some how I just can't type ROCK and





SUCKS in the same sentence...... That is right.... I knew Ron worked in Plastic for a living....

Ron is going to be very BUSY....

As an aftermarket collector I would not be concerned about LHR as this just adds to the reliability reducing the dust related failures and phone calls to LHR.

9 hour power outage after a hail storm yesterday, missed the action.

I'm not sure how to say this "politically correct".... but if i am stepping on someones toes here, please let me know. I just answered one simple question about being a plastic injection mold maker/molder. It is not my intent to have anyone upset with me, and after i slept on it last night i thought i could be doing so.

So, here is a public apology if it is needed, and if anyone objects to me taking this on please let me know. Feel free to say so publicly in the forum, or if you wish you can email me or PM me.

Thanks guys!

Anyone who could manufacture a new cover with a built in vacuum port could clean up with all the CarveWrights that are out there!! Why didn't they incorporate a port in their cover in the first place????

just completed a 17 hour carve no dust collection at all on a 13" wide by 7' board. just let her rip and came back later. it just compresses the shaving onto the board as it rolls the board out. on 5" boards the sandpaper rolls most of it out.

now the fine dust does need attention if your going to stand by it while it carves for more than 30 minutes cause it gets on everything and will be in your lungs... not good.

I would be interested in 2.

I would be interested in a metal and a plastic version. I would not stop progress from a metal version.

At this time that would be between you and FWHarris, its called free enterprise. I dont think FW is at all upset with you probably kicking himself for not producing a model first to show everyone first though.

I think both you and FW put out some great work and Im sure he would appreciate your comments.

Ron,
For my part, I'll say that I think there is room for a "ready made" Dust Collection/Vacuum product as well as free plans/ideas on the Forum and a Project in the CW store.

I think we all want to have and use a unit that will keep things running smoothly and be within our budget. The three avenues of availability seem to cover the options. Heaven knows, we have requested that LHR step up to the plate before we started our own intensive efforts.

Ron,

No issues with me what so ever. As "Badger" stated we are working in a free enterprise system and I am sure there are more than one way to suck the dust off the cat, so to speak! And yes I am maybe kicking myself a little bit!!

I know your reputation will be very hard to compete with but I really do not think that either one of us (or Bud) should back away from this idea. After all look how many are standing in line already!!

I have set up a poll on the CNC Guild forum http://http://cncartguild.forumotion...ert-t35.htm#94 to give me a rough count for those who might be interested..

I am sure there are more than one way to suck the dust off the cat, .

lmao, ill have to give that a try to test my dust collection system.

On side note, our cat loves to have the sweeper hose ran over him...LOL... now with a 4" inlet, you could loose a cat, so be careful!..

On the serious side, thank you guys for the feedback and interest. I will start working through the process soon. I had a little different approach that i will share with the group once i get the part model done.

Happy Carving guys (and gals)

Ron
