Project: Workshop Dusty Area

No, we don't want to create a dusty area as such, this is all about containing dust from those wookdworking tools that create it, and preventing it from affecting other users and tools in the workshop.

The idea is to partition off the rear left-hand corner of the workshop (approximately 13' wide by 19' deep) with a long wall of hardboard on studding at low level with transparent plastic above (to not reduce the general light level in the workshop) and with a dangly-clear-plastic curtain as the short wall.

Within the area we will build a large duct and fan system to move the dust created by tools such as the bandsaw, table saw, belt&disc sander the bags for disposal.
