Well, as many of you know, I've been adding to the shop for a while now, in hopes of being able to make pipes. I was tired of working outside when doing sanding and shaping, so recently I purchased a large dust collector and now finally after building the addition to my small shop I needed to house the unit, I now have it all installed and hooked up. I even set up my sander/buffer under the bench so that I could set while working and not take up bench space. Here are a few pics of my shop addition and the collector hooked to the machines.
I didn't like the small vac hook up for the band saw so now have a 4" line to it and it works great.
And here is the small Atlas metal lathe that I'm setting up for tamper and stem work among other things. I have both a 4 jaw independent and a 4 jaw self centering chuck, a Quick Change Tool Post with boring bar holder and cut off tool and a live as well as dead center for the Tail stock. The lathe has no wear at all and was barely used.
