Shop Fox W1733 20-Inch by 40-Inch Downdraft Sanding Table Reviews
Before I got this sanding table I would be sanding in a big dust cloud. When I am using it I have it hooked up to a 2500cfm JDS dust collector and there is a significant decrease in the amount of dust floating around. It seems to have a solid build to it so it could take some abuse and last for a long time. I have no complaints here, it says it will reduce the dust while sanding and it does.
The results you have with this table will depend on how much suction you have.First I tried using this with my shop-vac and had less than desirable results. It was ok (better than nothing) but not great using this combination.Then I hooked this up to my Delta 1,200 CFM dust collector and WOW! I sanded six tables in my garage using this downdraft table hooked up to my dust collector and there was not a trace of dust when I was done. I was also using a Dewalt random orbital sander with the dust collection attachment on that hooked up to the dust collector.
The sanding table does a good job of eliminating saw dust and seems to be good sturdy construction. I also like the light weight and portability.I have used the table for several small projects and am pleased with the sanding table performance.The key to good performance is using a high capacity vacuum system.Ken
I decided to purchase this sanding table Shop Fox W1733 20-Inch by 40-Inch Downdraft Sanding Table based on the positive reviews I read. Their statements were right on the money. This is a Great product. I'm really surprised at the quality of the table. It's Well-Built and sturdy and I'm sure it will last a life time. I tried using it with my shop vac with a 5 gallon separator attached, my results were poor. Just not enough "Suck" for this large table. I then attached the dust collector system and No More Dust! My suggestion would be: For use with a dust collector system only.. At the time I ordered April 2011 Amazon has the best price with their free shipping offer.
I have a 1.5HP dust collector that pulls 1500CFM and has two 4" ports. The downdraft table is inset into a workbench, one of the 4" ports is connected to this, and the other can be used for secondary suction. I use this table for light sanding and also some chop-saw work when the weather isn't nice out.With something like this you always envision gobs of dust getting whisked away and ultra-clean air. However the reality is that when I'm sanding, the downdraft does help, but a thin layer of dust ends up across the room, and in my nostrils. It was this fine dust that I was hoping to be rid of. When chop-sawing, I put a large cardboard box over the table and put an additional 4" port in the box, and a bit of dust does escape, but the chop saw does stir up a bit of air movement so no surprise there.I do see little particles of dust being drawn to the table, however only the dust above the table. A bit of dust settles around the table and a bit of dust settles in between the vents so that when you're done you need to brush the table with the dust collector on.
