Just watched this part It's actually more like 10 amps and if i remember well the motor could withstand 12 amps before starting to heat too much and melt
That inrush current though. Damn that pushed the meter past what it could measure, and it looked well over 30A, that's a great way to trip a breaker.... A controller that spins up slower might be worth while...
Didn't he say the motor was 2/3HP that'd be 500W, but 10A*120V=1200W so wouldn't it be well over its rating? Even for a 1 1/3HP motor it would be too much.
I bought your plans for your bandsaw close to a year ago while I was still familiarizing myself with some of the basics of woodworking. It was very intimidating, but I've recently felt confident enough to take it on. I've just about completed the laminated frame and will be putting it all together slowly but surely in the next few weeks during my free time. I can't wait to complete this project and try my hand at your dust collector, pantorouter, and belt sander! Keep doing what you're doing! You're making woodworking affordable and fun for young enthusiasts like myself.
@@electricdeckhead3083, he was testing the new quiet one vs the old noisy one, hence why the bag at the top of the big vacuum collapsed. if you watch you'll see he tested them against each other
He was complaining his SHOP VAC 0:03 was too loud, not his dust collector. However we have seen that there was not much improvement, proving there is no free lunch. If you want something to work, you have to pay for it in some way. The only way to get away from the fan and motor noise is to place the vacuum remotely. Maybe in another room or outside.
Amazing! really, really amazing. Sir, I am almost 66 years old and love wood working. I am always intrigued by your simplistic method of explaining things. You are without a doubt the best. What truly gets me is you are not afraid to admit when you mess up. Wow! Thank you.
Skill doesn't imply originality. The guy on the production line that's made the same exact part day in day out for 50 years is very skilled. The person that originally designed the part that guy has been making for those 50 years is likely also very skilled, but at a different thing. Design, research, manufacturing... These are all their own thing, and being good at one doesn't imply being good at the other. (indeed one of the most common complaints people have of engineers and designers is they ask people to build the impossible because they have no practical understanding of how to actually make anything...)
@@KuraIthys lol nothing is original, it's very very rare to have something original with having this many people on the planet , a production line is just assemble the same shit that's mindless thinking just the same shit over an over, it depends on what they do on an assembly line, are they quality assurance or just put it together and move along
That's amazing! I was wondering why you were taking the time to build something that is so readily available and cheap to buy but you made a stronger one. Thumbs up for sure!👏
Had my reservations but MAN!! 14"H2O? Wow!! I suspected only regen blowers and vane pumps could pull such a vacuum. Matthias, I tip my hat to you sir (yet again!). Amazing.
I love this guy. I just found his channel. There is a deep sensation of pleasure when watching him make stuff. It just feels...right. He is like the shows I watched as a little boy. Also his tractor video and the air raid was very nice videos to watch. Thanks, man.
You are AWSOME. I love your funny humor and the out of the box ideas, this all reminds me of myself. I love to build very creative custom tings. Keep up all the great work and don't let anyone get you down. May God bless you.
bare in mind that anyone with a degree in engineering could probably do a better job than this. But I'm not going to lie this is still a pretty cool video and hobby
If you ever need to reverse a capacitor run motor, identify the winding that has the capacitor in series, and simply reverse those winding connections. There's normally a diagram in an end cover if there is one. Sometimes it is possible to reverse the rotor and end caps so it pokes out the other end
Hi Matt, Thanks for posting this video. The design of the fins actually inspired me to create a device to use in my metals recovery lab. There isn't an already made panel with fins of the size I was looking for and i decided to build my own. When I saw your construction, my problem was solved. Keep up the good works and post more. I am now a fan. (no pun intended), Sam K
Matthias, referring to the power of his all wooden dust collector, "It really sucks!" I literally laughed out loud. You my friend are a modern day genius. : D
It really sucks!!! In a great way. What is the difference in decibels between your shop vac and the new vac? That was the purpose for building the new vac. Thank you.
It just amazing how well you are able to build things. I have used your approach to building in my work. Although not as high a quality I'm making things I never though I would. Thanks.
been watching your videos for a few weeks now , very inspiring has helped me with many projects im putting together, thanks for taking the time to do this for everyone.
+Matthias Wandel Thug life. thanks for documenting and sharing your genius ingenuity. I have learned so much from you and am just beginning my journey into woodworking at 26. Keep them coming!
That's a great one. I never thought that "Even when it sucks, you are doing great videos". This one, I keep it in my archives. Thanks... I always wished to make mine one day. Now, I konw how...
You make some incredible things by wood and your hands. Its amazing to see what you can make in wood. Wish you a nice and warm Christmas with your family. Best wishes from Jan in Norway
interesting project and creative engineering...if one has the time. An old timer told me once...buy the stuff you can buy and make the stuff you can't buy. Meaning, no need to re-invent the wheel unless of course you just enjoy the feeling of accomplishment and like to tinker with projects like this, which is totally fine. Just seems like a lot of trial and error time spent when one could buy pretty cheap components from machinery bone yards (ie: blowers, motors,etc.) from ebay. Just my opinion, of course. I do enjoy your videos very much and I have the highest respect for you engineering skill.
sn0wchyld If you have a three phase motor, then reversing two of the three wires will revers it. Going back to the original statement, switch polarity on the starting capacitor of a single phase motor does nothing. Whether a polarized or non polarized cap is used. All be it a non polarized is far more appropriate.
My favorite scientific measurement of moving air was the rubber band tuning test, got about 1000hz on that one which is roughly equivalent to the power needed to suck 20oz of vanilla frosty from Wendy’s at 2am or enough air to fill up 100 clown shoes in the same amount of time a wombat needs to make 3.5 cubes of poop on the side of a hill, well done mate! I wouldn’t have even attempted to make my own blower :) but now i will imagine that I did
"Only 9.9 Amps. I could have made it bigger" Shouldn't a 2/3 hp motor only be drawing 4.5 amps (I assume you were testing it using a regular 110 volt power supply)?
4.9 amps if it were 100% efficient, but yes, it seems the motor is still being run too hard. Not sure how valuable these measurements are valid anyway - moving the impeller inside the box is completely different from outside the box. It is possible it takes less amps under partial vacuum (the impeller gets lighter).
+NeXTSTORMING You can download browser scripts to fix that. I made one called UA-cam HD Override which you can search for on Greasyfork. UA-cam is a real pain in the butt sometimes.
Not to rain on the parade, but squirrel cage blowers are designed for efficient and quiet air movement at at least 2" H2O static pressure. They're easily scavenged from scrapped warm air furnaces. Seems like the engineering is already done. Why reinvent the wheel? Put one in a box and go! Ps... They come in different capacities and the motors are often multispeed capable. Just engage one power lead for the speed you want.
I made a small version of this as a water pump a few months ago. I used old junk CDs, the motor out of an xbox controller, a small tub( i think it was glitter or something), the casing off an old marker and a few pieces of tubing. Works great as a small waterfall pump in a container pond in my back garden.
"it really sucks" didnt sound like a success xD
you mean "suckcess"?
@@user-bj3pq2si2l no
Lol that’s the same thing I thought
It's meant to be a joke you probably don't get it
@@jeremymarchant8373 Nah REALLY, why do you think i made this- xD
"Only 9 amperes! I could have made it bigger!" Spoken like a true mad scientist.
He should have used a air compressor motor, only 15 amps
Just watched this part
It's actually more like 10 amps and if i remember well the motor could withstand 12 amps before starting to heat too much and melt

Quality video, neither excessively long or short, and that ending "it really sucks" is the cherry on top.
builds a blower because his vacuums "too damn loud" ends video by yelling over his new blower, lol
Both were running, hence the yelling. if the little one was only running, might have been much quieter

Anyone every tell you that you are a geni'wood'wiz This has got to be one of the coolest things I've seen made!
I saw an advertisement for a dust collector, before I learned how to build a dust collector.
Those fools.
Bravo Matt, the final test sold me. Well worth the time to out do a commercial model!
His last three words:
"It really sucks"
Matthias you're the guy, that's what we say here in Brazil, when a man is creative and smart.
Had my reservations but MAN!! 14"H2O? Wow!! I suspected only regen blowers and vane pumps could pull such a vacuum. Matthias, I tip my hat to you sir (yet again!). Amazing.

why dont you have your own tv show on discovery or natgeo, mr you are a genius
Joshua Coronell maybe because on yt he is much better paid and he can offer plans as well
kjezier After Blackberry I hope he does not need a paying job.

Joshua Coronell he's Canadian... so he should be on a Canadian network.
Anthony Burch he is an engineer...
If you still read these, I always love watching your videos! Your extremely intelligent and I like watching the way you solve problems! So thanks 😊
Great info!
The feelgood in your videos!
I watch them when im about to sleep!
Good Night!
"It really does out suck the big one" classic xD lmao
Wait. That big one is a central vacuum system? The one which is like 20 grands?

Wow dude, you deserve an award.
I love watching you whacky genius guys come up with this stuff. Amazing.
You are a bad ass and the owner of my new favorite youtube channel.
This is pretty amazing! I work in the HVAC industry and I never thought about scrapping an old fan motor and building my own blower.
I just wanted to know how you still have 10 fingers on your hands. You are a genius. Congratulations.
That spins incredibly smooth for something handmade out of wood
I would really love to spend a day with this guy jsut making things.
Good thing about your videos is that they are properly explained
Such a funny geek. I love it
Cheers
wow i'm amazed, i been watching 8 of your videos now and your GOOD with wood and tools.
Matthias, referring to the power of his all wooden dust collector, "It really sucks!" I literally laughed out loud. You my friend are a modern day genius. : D
You should be on tv. You are incredibly good.

This is really novel... A wood centrifugal blower. Nice idea and execution! Flipping it around instead of starting over shows some smarts.
The IT REALLY SUCKS part killed me
Videos like this one are the reason I subscribed to your channel. Great job Mathias, thank you
Pretty nifty
You are truly a genius!!!
Dude. This is one of my favourite video of yours. Cant wait to build my own.
bro u r genius I like ur videos god bless you
Nice job..I'm looking forward to the cyclone mount and test video now. Thanks for taking the time to show this.
"it really sucks"
my sides lmao
LOL !!!! This video made my day... Inspirational, educational and enjoyable... love the humor !!!
i have no idea whats going on but this is strangely entertaining
been watching your videos for a few weeks now , very inspiring has helped me with many projects im putting together, thanks for taking the time to do this for everyone.
This is awesome. however the only concern I have is, your trusting a rapidly rotating impeller to some... wood glue?
+THEtechknight yes, and?
Matthias Wandel and.. DEATH AND FIERY EXPLOSIONS!!! hahaha... j/k
+THEtechknight interesting fact: for softwoods (like pine) the glue joint is actually stronger than the wood itself for most applied forces.
+Matthias Wandel Thug life. thanks for documenting and sharing your genius ingenuity. I have learned so much from you and am just beginning my journey into woodworking at 26. Keep them coming!
Yes fatigue will destroy it. Nice project though.
This is the coolest thing I've ever seen made out of wood!
I saw that four of the fins are longer towards the middle. Is there a reason for that?
Marius Hornberger None of the fins originally went to the middle. Just that I extended four of them later
That's a great one. I never thought that "Even when it sucks, you are doing great videos". This one, I keep it in my archives. Thanks...

2:27 HOLY NUT AND BOLT!
Oh yea, those are some big nuts...
Sucking the big one indeed...
I'm continually impressed, your the #1 creative wood guy on UA-cam
to reverse the motor you can invert the capacitor
or just turn it upside down
I believe, sir, it says that the power coupling on the negative axis has been polarized.
Try reversing the polarity of the neutron flow.
you need to swap the polarity of any 2 of the 3 wires in the flux capacitor.

If you have a three phase motor, then reversing two of the three wires will revers it. Going back to the original statement, switch polarity on the starting capacitor of a single phase motor does nothing. Whether a polarized or non polarized cap is used.

Not to rain on the parade, but squirrel cage blowers are designed for efficient and quiet air movement at at least 2" H2O static pressure. They're easily scavenged from scrapped warm air furnaces. Seems like the engineering is already done. Why reinvent the wheel? Put one in a box and go!
Ps... They come in different capacities and the motors are often multispeed capable. Just engage one power lead for the speed you want.
The point of making one is to make one!
Seriously, haven't you ever made or done something just to see if you could? That fairly well sums up my life.
Matthias is all about re-inventing the wheel. That's why we love him.

"too damn loud"
I sense a Back to the Future fan here!
I made a small version of this as a water pump a few months ago. I used old junk CDs, the motor out of an xbox controller, a small tub( i think it was glitter or something), the casing off an old marker and a few pieces of tubing.
Works great as a small waterfall pump in a container pond in my back garden.
If it sucks then why did you build it
you idiot, he was joking
best joke ever!
The funniest joke I ever hear. It's ambiguous.
I think sean juth was joking too.
No he wasnt. thats nothing someone would joke about idiot
You did a beautiful job on that impeller
