I am trying to figure out the best way to hook up the baffle idea to my 3 HP Powermatic DC. It has an 8" inlet and a double bag setup. The mounting hoop where the bags attach has a downward slanting flange about 2" wide which helps keep the dust headed down into the clear plastic bags, and not up to the fabric bags.
My thought is to make a baffle a few inches below this flange and put a plywood top on the hoop instead of the fabric bags. Each one would have a 6" pipe coming out of the center and out the side of the shop.....no filter bags (California). If it saves 90% or so, I can vent the really fine stuff outside.
The Wynn filter site shows a setup somewhat like this, but the baffle would make it even better.
Any ideas??
One more question....Why does one bag on my dual bag setup have about 5 times as much dust in it than the other? One side has about 3" and the other has about 15" full.
