Just thaught I had better introduce myself. I joined this forum very recently after visiting a few times. My main hobby is of course woodwork, however I do not earn my living at it.
I do all my 'work' in my garage which I have converted into a workshop after evicting the car and the better halfs garden tools.
My projects started with making longcase clocks but due to family demand have expanded into furniture, the latest being a console table in oak for my son and his wife.
One problem I would like some help with is how to control workshop dust, this is driving me mad. I have a chip extractor on the planer and sawbench, a small ducted system for other tools using a 4 micron filter vacuum and a large workshop dust filter (which shakes the garage roof alarmingly at full belt) But still the dust accumulates on all surfaces at an alarming rate.
I appreciate that doing everything with hand tools would be one way to reduce this but I reckon that I would probably never get any further project finished!
