What is everyone using for dust collection on the Desktop? Is a 5hp ShopVac sufficient? Also, has anyone fabricated an enclosure for the Desktop model?
Thanks,
Matt

Matt,

I'm hoping to do something like this at my new house since I have to put the machine in the basement for the immediate future...

After a couple of weeks with the Desktop I have decided that there is no need for a dust enclosure. I usually run mine with only the dust foot attached and it is very effective. It works better with the included spindle enclosure attached, but mine does not fit right. It is nearly impossible to remove and install, so I run without it.
