Lyndhurst Dust Extractor Question

[noddy67]

I was looking at this item as I need to improve the dust extraction in my shop and wondered whether anyone had had any experience of it and could recommend it. Many thanks

I've got the 2hp Lyndhurst machine, the version with just one bag/filter.

Had it for almost two years with no problems.

Wish I had bought the fine filter cartridge to replace the top bag at the time though :roll:

That looks quite some machine for the price. If I had the room that's one I would consider. 2300 cfm is double what I have. If you go for it let us know how it is.

This machine is the same as lots of others, it's a badged clone. Fox & Axminster to name but two badges

The very fine dust will blow through the filter bags back into the building unless you have it outside and plumbed through into the workshop. It's a good price but imho it needs 0.5 micron fine cartridge filters if you want it in a workplace as it's the fine dust that's most harmfull.

Thanks for the replies guys.

Gardenshed do you happen to know anywhere one could pick up a fine dust filter to add on to it that would cost an arm and a leg?

Do Axminster still sell them for their badged version.

You could also try R & M Industrial filters they have a shop on Ebay, try emailing them.
