Thanks for watching, y'all! I know a lot of you have been asking about a shop tour video, and it'll be live next week, so stay tuned and get subscribed : goo.gl/V5gcNJ Learn more about the Clearvue EF5 dust collector : bit.ly/clearvue (use coupon code CRAFTED for 5% off!)
That's a custom part that adjusts the system based on the angle the ductwork comes off of the Clearvue unit. Basically just brings everything back to level.
Custom elbow eh? Very useful. One last question, did you by any chance ask Nordfab if they did custom length straight pipes? I'm currently designing a duct system for my shop and I have a bunch of sections that are shorter than five feet and a shorter straight pipe would save a lot on buying extra adjustable nipples.
Not as far as I know, but I didn't actually ask. I'm guessing it'd end up being just as expensive if it was custom. If it's short enough, you can just use the nipple as the straight pipe, which we did in a few places.
I've been seriously looking at the iVac stuff. Seems pretty legit. I have seen a lot of people with it and haven't heard any bad things yet! Thanks for the video man. Great as always!
Glad to see you have it up and running. I’ve been there and know how hard it is to plan all the runs out when all you have in front of you is room with tools in it
Great video! Thanks for the information regarding the attachment of the IVAC blast gates to the Nordfab machine adapter. Your technique worked well for me.
Nicely done, looks like a real professional installation. Just one thing I'm curious about, why didn't you mount the cyclone higher up, and attach the collection drum with a longer section of pipe? Seems like you'd get better performance than the 2 90s you put in.
I used to sell large industrial systems. One thing I noticed is that they did not recommend that you put a ground strap/wire (to ground not the negative) on the metal ducting, as wood fibers can create static electricity. Which could cause a fire in your shop. I would not mount it on the dust collector as it coated and may not dissipate the electricity form the ducting.
to help with dust collection on that miter saw station, i added clear thick plastic sheeting on the face. I think it increased my suction for that saw by at least 70-80%. I barely get any dust coming out from off the saw and most of it ends up back behind the saw or through the hood/collector.
So I just watched your dust collection video from 2 years ago. This new video contradicts a lot of comments from the previous video. So I guess this is the best system...... until the next one?
Great setup! The Clearvue folks are awesome! I wish I had the new metal design. I would love to have the automated blast gates as well but especially the 6" ones are really pricey.
Given the power of this system .... it is probably overkill ... but looking at laying out something similar for my new workshop (cheaper duct work as I am a hobbyist) and wondering if moving the blast gates closer to the main run (rather than at the tool) ... would be worth wild?
Nice system. Great addition to your new shop. Not gonna lie. I’m a bit jealous. Noise is probably not your main concern. Yet I wonder if it would run quieter using some padding in the brackets. Especially when the pipes are mounted on plywood walls. Depending on motor/system vibrations that plywood where it’s bolted on to, is gonna act like a subwoofer. At least. That’s what I would “worry” about 🤓
Niiice. Digging the automation. You can just focus on the job itself and not the cleaning up.. Just yesterday I automated my ceiling fan so I can just voice control it instead of standing up and walking to the wall switch.. the time I spent on automating it.. not sure if I'll ever save the time but damnit if it helps my lazy days be lazier.. it's a win :D
I'm really curious when they designed the ducting they chose to go with the double-90 at the beginning instead of just going with a longer section of straight pipe and then using a 22.5 or less to level off at the desired height. Regardless, pretty jealous as I'm sure it performs fantastic either way. Grats.
Hey Johnny! I’m making a recycled stool out of three steel rims out of a junk yard, in trying to figure out hot to protect flooring from the sharp lip on the bottom rim, I tried fuel line cut down the middle with some epoxy with no success since the act of moving the chair wore out the bond of the epoxy very quickly. Any thoughts on the material I could use?
Sweet system! I went with the iVac switch too. Not that I'd ever buy a single iVac blast gate - but IF I did... ;-) Beautiful shop, Johnny! #KeepTheChipsFlying!
ClearVue is brand of dust collection I want to get. PowerMatic bandsaw is one I want to get. You have both would love to see before and after dust inside the bandsaw. Any chance you can have a Dylos air meter running as well?
I don’t have a Dylos air meter unfortunately and I’ve always had a Clearvue since getting the bandsaw so there’s basically no dust whatsoever in the bandsaw cabinet.
So you've now passed step 1 which is admitting the problem. Now use that motivation from Johnny to get to step 2 which is starting the design... soon you'll have your own ducting
@@craftedworkshop One thing I definitely agree with you about is that the whole system is quite complex to design. There are just a lot of parts to think about.
Where did you find that magical 6" to 5" reducer for the planer?? I went to Home Depot and Lowes and they have them but they are 5" outer diameter and don't fit the planer(I have same as you). Gaaah!
All I have to say is...”Pure!” Honestly you cant get any better with what you have done. Never once did I hear vacuum. That word alone does no justice. Glad you know what you’re doing on that dust collection system. I’d be the pudge monkey who’d screw it up and have to tear it down and start all over again. Great job on the shop. Just waiting to see what you start putting out of it. Do you sell any of your builds? If so, is there a way to get your address? I live in NC.
Thanks Tony! I can’t wait to start building in here as well. I don’t really sell much of my work these days, mostly make stuff for myself, friends and family. The shop address is private but I do meetups in Asheville from time to time if you’re interested!
For most people Norfab is overkill. It's incredibly expensive because it rated for fumes, smoke, and dust--really industrial. Yes, quick connect is great, but for those that plan their system well, there has to be less expensive solutions that is also of very high quality.
@@craftedworkshop Some pills are too big to swallow. Nearly all quality ductwork can be a buy once solution. It may require a little more time, but seriously that stuff is like $7 a foot. If one has the money, then no need to cry, just do it. But for those who have more time than money it's the difference between having dust collection or not and spending for Norfab just isn't the only way to get high quality. Of course, the time element and it being a business expense is a whole different deal than a hobby shop where the budget is tight.
Probably doesn't matter since you'll never need to do this again but you know you didn't need the 2 90s at all... You had 2 45s just before that. If you just angled the connecting piece between the 45s (and make it a little longer) you can go up AND over with just the 2 joints, no need for all 4
You kept talking up this ducting, all it's features, these holes are so amazing to have, etc, and I was sitting here just thinking about how theyre limited production, all the bells and whistles, and they probably cost so much more than is reasonable and couldn't possibly be worth the money over even just normal ducts or PVC. Then you said it was 4000, and I think that's crazy. Blew me away. Couldn't imagine buying 4000 in ducting out if pocket for such a project. You're paying half that cost for a look and feel at that point.
Nice! That Nordfab is a bitter pill to swallow but it's nice that you can adapt it to different setups and it can move with you. I have the iVac Switches but not the gates yet. Might try an arduino thing for the gates but I I love the switches.
That's a lot of Nordfab. I had no idea you could cut it down; that was always one of my turn-offs with that system. Learned something here. Looks lovely :)
The sensors support any amperage as all they’re doing is sensing current. I’ve got the same sensors on my 20a drum sander and 40A planer, they work fine. The switches only support up to 20A, which is why I need to use a contactor in conjunction with my dust collector, which draws 30A. Hope that makes sense.
@@craftedworkshop Thanks. That does make more sense. The ivac site is not super useful with those details. My saw and planer are 30amp circuits. IIRC, my dust collector is as well. THanks. I'll look back into these.
i was super excited to watch this very super exciting video but all it was is just another lame commercial how super disappointing! but it's nice you were super excited
5% won’t even cover shipping. They sure want to make there money back on the one they gave you. Most woodworkers out there get a 10% code for promoting products. 😢
This certainly isn’t a DIY setup and isn’t labeled as such. This is a professional grade dust collection system, definitely an investment but one that will last for 10+ years in a commercial environment easily.

What was that tiny fitting at the end of your straight run coming off the dust collector? It sits between the straight pipe and your first 45.
That's a custom part that adjusts the system based on the angle the ductwork comes off of the Clearvue unit. Basically just brings everything back to level.

Super rad! The automatic blast gate thing was super cool, love that kind of automation.
Thanks man! Yea, automation helps so much with efficiency when you do the same task so repetitively, makes a HUGE difference in my workflow.
I've been seriously looking at the iVac stuff. Seems pretty legit. I have seen a lot of people with it and haven't heard any bad things yet! Thanks for the video man. Great as always!
It works extremely well. Used in the last shop for almost two years without issue. Thanks!
I'm jellin over that system. You are going to be so happy in that new shop. Should get the creative juices flowing too. Very happy for you! Enjoy.
For sure, thanks Rod!
Glad to see you have it up and running. I’ve been there and know how hard it is to plan all the runs out when all you have in front of you is room with tools in it
Yup, definitely appreciate the Clearvue guys helping me design the ductwork layout.
This dust collection system is a beast. Nice video again. It is fun to watch the proces of building your workshop!
Yes ,it sucks ! : )
Great video! Thanks for the information regarding the attachment of the IVAC blast gates to the Nordfab machine adapter. Your technique worked well for me.
Duct tape used on ducts. Mind blown!
😂

Raise cyclone - dido the no 90's .. Add more hose at barrel.?

Sweet setup Johnny, the system looks awesome! 😃👍🏻👊🏻
Thanks Fred!
Big investment here but a lifetime of good equipment. The shop is coming along nicely
For sure, thanks!
That set up is killer! Awesome stuff.
Thanks man!
Johnny!! I've been loving these workshop upgrade videos! Keep 'em coming!!
I agree
Definitely going to keep getting the new space organized, glad you're enjoying the videos!
Thanks!
Sound awsome
So proud of your accomplishments!!!!!!! Keep it up. It must feel great being set-up like that. Upward and Onward!!!!!!!!!!
Thanks a lot, this shop is definitely starting to feel a lot more like home!
watching this install just makes me want a Harvey G700 even more
Very different machines, the ClearVue is much more powerful.
Cant wait for the shop tour video! I am glad that you are all moved in and are able to start projects again in your new shop! Congrats again :)
4K for duct work! I’m gonna buy a swivel sweeper and call it a day! Hahahaha. Looks awesome man and congrats on the shop 👍👍👍
No kidding, not cheap! Thanks!
Super nice system and shop setup. Makes me jealous forsure...
Thanks!
Sewer pipe is incredibly cheap and just as easy to cut and install. But if you got the money...
Just asking did u add a alectrical earth connection? Becouse of the static electricity iT can be dangerous if u dont!
Great setup! The Clearvue folks are awesome! I wish I had the new metal design. I would love to have the automated blast gates as well but especially the 6" ones are really pricey.
Thanks! They are super nice guys. The automated blast gates are pricey but worth it IMO.
You must be psyched, sir. Can't wait for that crispy shop tour next week :)
Super pumped! And I gotta finish getting organized first 😂
Why would the fan motor be going the wrong way? Are you guys in a commercial shop with 3 phase?
Hi Johnny, hey what gauge of metal ducting is typical for woodshed dust collection, just curious? Thk you
Great work on the dust collection system Johnny! Thank you for sharing the video with us.👌👍😎JP
Thanks man!
Your very welcome Johnny! Have a great weekend!😎
Awesome Sawdust System!

Hi Johnny what gauge is the ducting from nordfab
Great video and awesome dust collection system, but unfortunately the price is a bit much for the average woodworker.

Crafted Workshop thanks. I worry about wood dust. I think ClearVue makes the best one out there.
It is definitely incredibly powerful!
Love ur videos man, I kinda wanna build one of these myself but can't cos I'm too lazy...
So you've now passed step 1 which is admitting the problem. Now use that motivation from Johnny to get to step 2 which is starting the design... soon you'll have your own ducting
Yup, just mess with the design for a few months and then you'll be excited to get it done!
Wow!! I love the way you explained everything and the details of the process! So excited for your new shop!
Thanks a lot Greg!
I must be missing something. Why did't you raise collector and eliminate the 90's ???
Hi can I ask if this is your job, was the cost tax deductible?
Great system, thanks for the video. Way outside of my budget but it looks like a great system.
Thanks! Definitely expensive but my previous system might be more in line with a budget-friendly option.
@@craftedworkshop One thing I definitely agree with you about is that the whole system is quite complex to design. There are just a lot of parts to think about.
For sure!
woow! this look so cool more space more work more happy hhh , good luck bro
Thanks!
cost of the whole thing?
I love it
Where did you find that magical 6" to 5" reducer for the planer?? I went to Home Depot and Lowes and they have them but they are 5" outer diameter and don't fit the planer(I have same as you). Gaaah!

Yup! Tough pill to swallow but I shouldn't ever need to buy ductwork again. Buy once, cry once.
