Can I have your old dust collector? My shop currently operates off a shop vac. I would gladly take that thing off your hands. Just the blower, the bag holders and the dust bags. Rather than throw them out🤷♂️🤷♂️ doubt it, but I figured it couldn't hurt to ask
You absolute mad lad. I came here to see sweet sweet dust collection action. Where are the shots of the router table perfectly sucking up dust? or the table saw sparkling clean after a cut?!?! i think we need a part 2.
Awesome book that gives you step-by-step photos ruclips.net/user/postUgkxTNB_zFBSnTo_O1PqfVUwgi7ityw0JlKt and directions to make every day project. I can see myself making a few of these projects and giving them as housewarming and holiday gifts!
Great video! It might be useful to add a duct opening on the floor, that way you can sweep up after machines/chisels/circ saws that don't have a dust hookup and push them right into the collection system. Food for thought!
I was thinking the same thing. But I couldn't find a way around it (no pun intended). What would you suggest to make this better? Rotate it 90 degrees, buy a different set up?
Im guessing any tighter of an angle would restrict air flow and hinder dust collection so to make best use of space available hes done the best he can?
@@rosshovvels5305 Think he means that the dust collector itself should have a vertical pipe coming out of the top of the machine so that you don't need to run a pipe out the side.
@@RocketSauce666 oh yeah i 100% agree with that, it would have been the logical way to design the extractor unit to have a vertical drop feed rather than horizontal as it is 👍🏼
It looks like you left the cut section facing against the flow of the dust, which will cause dust to build up on that cut lip. You might want to make sure the cut end of the ducts are facing towards the dust collector to ensure max flow and no areas for dust to collect inside the ducts.
Great setup, the only thing I don't really like about the Harvey Dust Collection system is that the intake comes out from the front...but other than that I have heard good things about it's performance.
I had the same thought but after more thought I came to the same conclusion as Dynasty did. Though if a shop is already set up and operational (like Jason's) it leaves you in the position of putting up with the space loss or totally rearranging the entire shop. And let's face it, 14k is probably a line item that gets vetoed when a shop is just getting set up for the first time.
Can you put it on the other side of the wall, so the machine is outside. Might save the noise and space at the expense of sucking all your conditioned air outside.
You want to know how much I love and appreciate your videos? I’ll tell you. For you, I don’t skip the adverts.. Keep on doing…. y’know.. this. All this. *gestures broadly at everything*
You have 2 box fans? Damn that's fancy. I'm lucky if I can open the garage door. I'm gonna pick up a dust deputy here soon now that I have my garage laid out though. Figure it's better than nothing
@@siebe41 The dust deputy works WAY better than I expected. Only the tiniest amount of dust makes it to the vacuum. I've not had to clean a filter on my vacuum since I put it in, other than tap it a little. It's WAY better than nothing :)
@@adamfisher9135 Really you have a tent? I am on a couple of concrete cinder blocks under a tree. Then again what I typically make it is all I really need, raised garden beds for the Mrs.
@@adamfisher9135 lol me too! Yes litterally using one of those Costco car tents. Been using it for years, been through 4 tops already. After the original I've just been using tarps.
Three things. 1. You could run a pipe to the floor with an elbow and a blast gate. Make a "dust pan" for when you sweep. 2 What do you do with your dust? 3. You really should have covers on your outlets. Safety First! Love the videos.
I’m not surprised at the prices. I work at a major window manufacturer in Canada the biggest expense in the place is the dust collection bar none. I find it actually analogous to the cost of windows and doors most people are shocked when they find out the price of windows and doors, it’s actually about 1/3 of the price of your house. So I was expecting the price is to be high. Looks like a great system congratulations. When I retire in a couple years I’m thinking of doing the same thing building a big shop making cabinets and built-ins for people.
I have used this style of plumbing for years in industrial plastic resin (beads) conveyor systems. It is absolutely the best type of system, have not had any issues in 20+ years of use. I may add that we use it in wet environments too, holds up just fine.
I have the G700 and I love it. The most important aspect to me, since my shop is in the basement below the living room is the sound. It is far more quiet than ANYTHING I have seen and it works at least as well as the cyclone systems.
@@biedawo The main advantages are height and noise but I have had no problem with airflow. I run a six inch main with 4" branches. I am running it at low speed for the noise. When I run the planer, I up the speed. Particularly where the planer is far more noisy than the G700.
This is actually GREAT content. Dare I say that your health is more important than any new shiny tool. This is definitely a splurge worthy occasion. Been researching Harvey Woodworking myself and I'm convinced they are someone we should be looking at. Thank you once again.
A couple of handy additions is a wide mouth floor scoops which you can open with a blast gate and sweep your floor towards them. Also you can fit auto blast gates that only open when the machine is switched on, saves continually going around opening/shutting the gates.
Happy for you Jason!!,I have the smaller Harvey dust processor and its Fantastic! you will hear more the air being sucked than the actual motor running !,Cheers from Toronto Canada!!
I just installed a Felder dust collector with a cyclone pre-filter system from Oneida Air. What I found most shocking was the cost of the components for the metal ducting from Carolina Air and they were the cheapest. It's even higher with these steel surcharges.
When you mentioned the price for the pipes I could have fallen out. I immediately gave your video a thumbs up to help you pay for your hospital bill from where those guys hit you over the head and stole your wallet.
it is an industrial grade product. It is not for home shops. And the nice thing about these is that if you ever decide to sell the piping, you get back about 70% of your money.
All you ever wanted to know about dust collection can be found here. I'm not aware of any issues with PVC system explosions due to static electricity.....although even with the system grounded, I still get a small amount of static now and then. If you put a couple .5 micron, Wynn Environmental filters on your old Grizzly dust collector, it will suck more and let the new owner breathe better. Love your channel! Enjoy the new Harvey dust collector. A Harvey lathe is in my future;-)
That 3d model is almost exactly the process we go through at the plumbing/mechanical contractor I work for. Design the whole building in revit, build smallish assemblies like one or 2 pipes and an elbow, name it, and hand it to field guys. They have a model and a bunch of named cut pieces and fittings. Easy enough to fit together.
Saving you much time cleaning the machine and most important keeps dust out of your longs. That's priceless. But why is the piping so unbelievable expensive??????
I almost pulled the trigger on a G-700, but after watching Bent's review, I decided against it. I didn't like the slow start up from the VFD as I frequently turn the DC on/off. I decided to go with an Oneida V-3000 instead. Absolutely amazing unit, and I upgraded from a 2-stage Harbor Freight. The difference is night and day, a proper DC system is a must have. I completely underestimated how much of a difference it can make.
Great Vids and episodes guys, love watching… but can I say I reversed my air-cleaner system in my shop and drilled the outlets and inlets through my eastern wall, taking the ducking outside vertically up the exterior wall, along with the exhaust outlets, and then ran the main line through my ceiling dropping in the verticals in the desired shop locations on the inside wall, very neat and very efficient…. Cheers Rob, Brisbane Australia.
Well Congratulations on your new dust collection system, I hope you sell a lot of merchandise to help recoup some of the cost, well buddy keep up the good work see you won the next one
Thank you for sharing the cost and how you spent your own money on it. Sure most of us will never justify spending that much but honestly, I completely understand why you did. This is your live and livelihood. Buy once and and move on. Thanks for the video.
Jason, thank you for this video. As someone that has always wanted to have a woodworking space and soon will have a space, this is all excellent information. I'm quite certain the office of budget management will not approve a 14k line item but you've pointed out a lot of pitfalls to avoid that honestly I had already planned to do. Thanks' again and keep up the great work. Enjoy that beast!
I had a bad moment when you gave the cost of the ductwork!! Signs of the times, my friend. Beautiful setup and I'm sure that it is a vast improvement over the old one. Have a good day and stay safe.
A video on basic, mid-range and high-end collection recommendations would be awesome. Same for different shop tools, so depending on budget we have ideas on what direction to go.
I toured a house where they used to have an indoor pool, but they had removed the pool and threw joists over the 8' deep void under where the pool used to be. For some reason it got me thinking about a giant downdraft booth woodworking shop (in addition to normal dust collection) made into the space under the floor.
Glad you were able to improve this aspect of your shop. I was a little confused as to why you were justifying YOUR investment in YOUR shop in YOUR video, then I began to scan through the comments; I get it now. You are a professional woodworker in a professional shop using professional tools, to me that equals getting the best that is attainable to you. I can appreciate that you did the research to get the best equipment for your shop. I applaud your success and wish you continued growth! Looking forward to the next video, have a good one :D 🖐
I love my Harvey Dust collector (its great, I keep it under my CNC machine to save space)...But I do worry about the one remote and losing it, I think about putting it on a retracting cable and hanging it in the middle of the garage.
My neighbour gave me an ozito wet dry shop vac, im gonna rig it up for my first dust collector.... some bourbon was involved in making the decision. Cheers for the tips!
Oh THANK THE WOOD GODS!!!!! I started following you recently and finally arrived at this video. As I have watched your videos I have learned a lot, while simultaneously being entertained. However, from the very first video I watch my brain thought "How can he stand all of that dust everywhere!!" Now with then dust collection systemI will be able to feel more at ease and no longer have the need to wear a dust mask while I watch the videos. Thank you for mortgaging your child's college fund so I feel a little more are peace while watching youtube.
So far, just 7 minutes into the video and I am liking what you have so far. The Nord-something piping looks really slick and the new power unit looks a bit like a small diesel standby generator. I've seen one of these before in someone else's video, but picture only as he was trying to replicate one of the separators on the top of the unit. I am a bit disappointed that we didn't get to hear this investment of a system run. I would think with a machine like that it would run fairly quietly like a Miele canister vacuum or something.
I installed the same type of ducting from a competitor that makes the same style of ducting, copied actually, for like 30 to 50% less. Nordfab's patents expired some time ago, so they're not exclusive anymore. But, by and large these are super systems, and as you say, easy to install and maintain. Nordfab by the way designs a system for you with a simple drawing of your machine locations and ceiling height just as you used a 3rd party. Also, one difference between my system and yours is that I tried whenever possible to use 2 x 45 degree sections rather than the large diameter 90 degree bend you used. This reduces the pressure losses on the bends. one last thing it doesn't hurt to have a the long return runs on the ceiling run slightly downhill towards the dust collector, and put blast gates near your big branches so you're not sucking on the entire system when you're only running a machine on one side. That might not matter depending on the size of your collection machine or if you have more than one person working in the shop. I run a Jet DC-2 collector which is a lot cheaper than yours, and they have a 3 HP model. Of course, other people also make cyclonic DC machines, so shop around. The automatic blast gates would be a nice upgrade, but i think they cost as much as all the ducting combined... ugh.
Wow, a lot of info here. This past year I watched "Underdone" try to make his version of the system you purchased, but with a clear tube. The visual effects were impressive.
So glad you did this video. I’ve always admired your system and wondered how it was set up. With that said, this isn’t really a system for the home woodworker, lol.

Why didn’t you start the dust processor? Dang I was excited to hear it
Same!!
Same, i Will see suck it 😀
He mentioned in the podcast that he had some issues out of the box. Haha. So he was afraid to start it
Check out "shop sounds podcast" he usually gives behind the scene info on it.
It was on the whole time at the end. It's just very quiet.
Anyone else kinda wanted to see him turn it on?
Hope it Sux ...to soon?
QUITE DISAPOINTED TO TELL THE TRUTH.
Absolutely.
Yes! I’m confused! Lol
My guess is it's 3 phase and he totally has no idea what that means.

Yes!! Crank it😂
For $14K it should be whisper quiet!
Maybe it was on the whole time?
@@TheTgranber that’s sure a possibility. Didn’t think of that😂🤣
100% Completely efficient.... Well, except for the ducting elbow jetting into the walkway to bump into.
I was thinking the same thing. But I couldn't find a way around it (no pun intended).
What would you suggest to make this better? Rotate it 90 degrees, buy a different set up?
It should come with a vertical pipe by design.

Congrats! That's the result of years of hard work, good for you!
Well, I now know what I want for Christmas next year. I guess I'll be getting a broom with the dust pan attachment.

I thought these tended to move noticeable less air than the clearvue/oneida cyclones; the main advantage was noise and low height. (?)

I love how responsible you are with alcohol especially when you are using tools
This system will also provide a safer and healthier environment for your most important, irreplaceable tool.....YOU! Great job, Jason!
I bought the G700 back in april when it was on sale for 2199. That g800 is in a whole nother league!
Forever means, you've found your calling, a beautiful thing to see. Congrats.
Congratulations! I only have the G-700 but I couldn't be happier with how efficient and quite it is.
It fitted together smoothly and you made it look so easy... ductile even.

Nice upgrade, keep your lungs healthy. Love Harvey Woodworking tools. I have one of their table saws. Thanks for sharing.
Never change your intros! Makes me smile every time.
Mirror Pond Pale Ale! Thanks Gary Fish
5:46 I love the fact that your dust collector removes dust using the air of Gyros!

Previous dust collection always sucked. Floor was constantly covered in sawdust. Happy to see the upgrade man!
Really nice system my friend. I for one am green with envy. I hope it makes life easier and the air cleaner for you.
Thanks for you videos I’m Cuban guy ,I’m by all festool tools for you recommend .it’s too happy thanks
Happy for you Jason!!,I have the smaller Harvey dust processor and its Fantastic! you will hear more the air being sucked than the actual motor running !,Cheers from Toronto Canada!!
Raul C, how much ducting do you have with your G700? I'm considering one for my shop, but wasn't sure the G700 had enough suction.
The copper wire actually works great in keeping the potential low enough to prevent the arc discharge.
I just installed a Felder dust collector with a cyclone pre-filter system from Oneida Air. What I found most shocking was the cost of the components for the metal ducting from Carolina Air and they were the cheapest. It's even higher with these steel surcharges.
Being in the coffee business, I hear you on the ductwork. It's not cheap but it works amazingly well.
When you mentioned the price for the pipes I could have fallen out. I immediately gave your video a thumbs up to help you pay for your hospital bill from where those guys hit you over the head and stole your wallet.
ROFLMAO...
it is an industrial grade product. It is not for home shops. And the nice thing about these is that if you ever decide to sell the piping, you get back about 70% of your money.

Would be amazing to have. Do a review after several months and let us know just how much better it is
Including a count of how many times you bash into that duct hanging into the aisle out the front of the Harvey .

Cool video! Try to find one verified case of a dust collection explosion. Good luck. Yeah the static clean is nasty, but so it butterscotch pudding.
Looking good. All you need is the remote and we can hear it in use (according to the podcast). It was a lot of money though 😣

Also, one difference between my system and yours is that I tried whenever possible to use 2 x 45 degree sections rather than the large diameter 90 degree bend you used. This reduces the pressure losses on the bends. one last thing it doesn't hurt to have a the long return runs on the ceiling run slightly downhill towards the dust collector, and put blast gates near your big branches so you're not sucking on the entire system when you're only running a machine on one side. That might not matter depending on the size of your collection machine or if you have more than one person working in the shop. I run a Jet DC-2 collector which is a lot cheaper than yours, and they have a 3 HP model. Of course, other people also make cyclonic DC machines, so shop around. The automatic blast gates would be a nice upgrade, but i think they cost as much as all the ducting combined... ugh.
Reminds me of the piping in a brewery.
good for you man. 👍🇨🇦
you running it on 220volts 20 amps. probably need a bigger wire run to the receptacle Just a guess. 🤷♂️
Nah, switching from a 20a 120v to 20a 240v is just hot to neutral vs. hot to hot. The wire gauge should be 12 for either one.
Wow! I wasn’t expecting that for pricing on the ducting! I guess I won’t be using that stuff. 😅
Great job señor Jason
I'm using two 20" box fans with furnace filters..
Wow, a lot of info here. This past year I watched "Underdone" try to make his version of the system you purchased, but with a clear tube. The visual effects were impressive.
Dang man! Congrats on the super baller dust collection system !
So glad you did this video. I’ve always admired your system and wondered how it was set up. With that said, this isn’t really a system for the home woodworker, lol.
Excellent video appreciated your honesty on price!🤙🏿
0:12 “In this video, we’re gonna get crazy.” Only in this video???
Love your work, and videos!
