Would someone respond how it handles sheetrock dust. This is a totally different animal than wood chips and household debris. I have my doubts.

I do not know that but if you give them a call they are very helpful and should be able to help you out.

I use the Dust Deputy connected to my table saw, bandsaw and planer and it collects 95% of the shavings and sawdust. The HEPA filter in my ShopVac is spotless and the container is totally empty. I have been using it for several years and I am totally satisfied.However, I have only used it for working with wood and never tried to use it for dust created by sheetrock. I cannot image that it would perform well with sheetrock dust which is definitely fine dust. It was designed to use with to collect wood chips and sawdust.

I don't know if it is the same one or not, but I would say that I would never buy it again. It's fine for dust, but anything bigger than a speck of a crumb won't be picked up. If you do get it picked up, don't lift the vacuum or it will all fall out. I really don't like it. I have owned more simple sweepers that did a better job. Keep in mind that it is a dust buster snapped onto a handle.

I have laminate wood flooring, not hardwood floors. I usually sweep and mop that floor, but I got my vacuum out to answer your questions and went over the laminate floor with it. There is no scratching at all whatsoever and it does pick up dirt and stuff just fine. I've even picked up a few pebbles or a small screw, etc. with no ill effects. Great vacuum! The rotating brush on the floor doesn't bother me or seem to make a lot of noise. Just the same sound from the carpet to the laminate flooring with a little more hollow sound on the hard floor.

I have the same planer and I use this dust collector for it. The ejection fan actually helps the sawdust going into the collector. It works pretty well for me. Good luck!

Have you checked with Woodcraft or Rockler? They have very good stock of dust collection hardware.

Barry D. not sure we have just wrote to Worx about our bag ripping after 2 times so we shall see how they respond. Still love the idea we can vacuum up the leaves it has made life easier being electric. We see our neighbor with a Gas Blower & having to stop quite a bit to put more Gas in. Love the Trash Can attachment better then the smaller bag but will let you know what Worx says.

I use these for cleaning up dust, wood is a finer particulate. Might need a 3M 7500 half face piece respirator with a HEPA filter for sanding wood especially if you're sanding for long periods of time.

This is more for lead/asbestos abatement purposes. I've also used this while sanding and scraping paint off. It picks up finer particles. But I would definitely recommend it for sawdust and dirt applications. Better safe than sorry.

The default dust collection could be more accurately called a 'dust sampler'. Pretty useless. On my saw, I removed the useless tiny plastic scoop thing and fabricated my own custom scoop out of thin cardboard and masking-tape. It actually looks rather like the scoop on the Festool Kapex, and works quite well, considering. Then i hook up my shopvac to the saw.

Dirt and bird seed will most likely clog the tiles...nothing a leaf blower can't handle tho. Good luck

I designed a dust collector from sheet metal. I attached my shop vac up to it and it works very well. The only thing, is you can't take alot off at once. It will clog up the vac hose.

My experience the vacum/shredder is that this is not the ideal tool for this. While the blower works quite well the vacum lacks even with the metal flywheel. It will only mulch the debris to a size that will pass through before spitting it into the bag.

Obviously it it carving into wood, so there is going to be both noise and sawdust. My experience is that the noise is equivalent to running a regular drill, and the sawdust is mostly staying on the piece during the carving and easy to vacuum up when the job is done. I'm very impressed with the noise level, I'd seen youtube videos and expected much worse than what I actually see is normal.

I purchased this last year it is heavy especially after adding the 3 point hitch and I have had to modify my mower that I use with it. It does a good job of raking but understand the small stones will still be around. I have used it as a rake for rocks and debris and also to rake dirt for leveling. To rake rocks it works okay just have to go over the area repeatedly and you may turn up more rocks. Will it rake 1-1/2" yes but it will leave some. If you are trying to make a seed bed you will still have work. I used mine since we turned up lots of rocks building a house and it works but requires lots of practice to use.

No, that was a disappointment for me at first. But after using it a few times, it isn't really that bad. It runs so smoothly that the sawdust doesn't fly all over the place. There is little to no vibration with this saw, I think that really helps. Takes me just a few minutes to clean up after a good several hours at the saw. It's a GREAT saw, even without the ability to hook up a shop vac. HEADS & TAILS above my first saw purchase that had a vac hook-up!

Please clarify where you will be putting the dust? If it's in the crack and cevice of the log home there is a high possibility weather breaking the product down. Putting the dust as far as you can to protect it will keep product active for a very long time.

I think it seems made for crumbs. Dust is small, but you'd have to rub this tiny thing back and forth all over your cubicle. That will draw some attention. Have you tried a damp rag? Time tested for generations, but not so cute.
