Anybody got one of these? ![]() DIRECT LINK I need a down draft solution and soon. My Delta downdraft table attached to a cyclone dust collector ain't worth a hill of beans! Any thoughts? Thanks |

Hesh that is a great idea and one that I will do if I get this machine. By the way, I will be at work tomorrow, want me to bring the jet with me? |

Lance, I have that Grizzl table and it works great! I actually picked it up when I made the switch from nitro lacquer to the UV cured poly finish. The UV finish creates clouds of dust when sanded so I needed a dedicated solution and the down draft table was just what i needed. Those walls that help to contain and direct the draft actually unclip and fold down out of the way to give a flat, open table top to work on. The rubber grommets that protect the pieces you work from the edges of the draft holes do a nice job too. The motor creates a really nice draft, but you'll find that it's best to keep a few extra filters on hand. I'm actually going to vent it directly outside to eliminate the need for the filters altogether. I'd recommend it to anyone. Regards, Kevin Gallagher/Omega Guitars |

I used one of these tables at my old job and it worked well if you remember to clean the filters. One gripe I had was the little rubber grommets. They like to fall out and when sanding just a top or a back or anything flat and thin, the piece would flex some between the rubber grommets. It was not my machine so I didnt modify it to stop the flex but maybe taking all the grommets out and putting down a flat surface that dust can go through would be a good idea. Blake |

Thanks Blake, that makes sense, Maybe a flat board the size of your sanding piece, back, top or side would stiffen it for a better sanding surface.. Good tip! Thanks! |

You could lay a piece of pegboard over it. Already has the holes in it. I saw one like that somewhere. |
