Dust collection routing

[tas99]

Just finishing the assembly and installation of my PRTalpha 48 and I’d be interested in any pictures of how others routed their dust collection system to the PRT. I understand how they suggest doing it in the manual and that looks Ok but I have a 2 Z axis system so I’ll be running 2 hoses and a blast gate on each and connecting to a 3HP Oneida with the 4" hose above the system waiting to be connected.

Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Mine drops down from the ceiling on a swing arm.

Mine also drops from the 10' ceiling in the center of the table but no swing arm.

10' ceilings... how nice. My ceilings are 9', better than 8, not as good as 10. In my case I have an insulated overhead door on the long side of the bot that I consider a moveable wall. I had to use the arm to allow for the door to slip overhead.
