As a mechanical engineer, this was awesome to watch haha. the versatility that wood gives you in designing what you want, it's truly inspiring. Thanks!
For everything you went through, call Howmet and get some turbine vanes for efficiency.
love the dust collection videos, so educational
that was a glorious bump into it lol
It always feels like a treat when Matthias and John both post a new video to their channels on the same day.
It really shows how much experience you have when you build something like this, Matthias! It's simple in principle, but all the parts interact with each other in complex ways and you intimately understand how they work.
I remember reading your website decades ago, it was a lot of fun reading about your projects back then.
That project was so well thought out. The last part about being an out feed table was awesome. Way to go!!!
Love it when Matthias still keeps upgrading and updating and making tools... 😲😲. Always a great joy.
Great to have you back doing projects Matthias
You’re videos are always a great watch, this one was so clever! I would never have thought of integrating the fan into the table like that!
I'm definitely not a wood worker and I genuinely enjoy watching videos from this channel. This is amazing content! Subscriber earned!
Your earlier blower videos inspired me to make my own. I got a cheap 750 watt electric water pump for $25, lopped off the pump casting and pulled the impeller. I used a 3/4" piece of hardwood ply for the blade disc and routed 1/8" wide grooves 3/8 deep for the blades to glue into. The blades themselves I used some 1/8 Aluminum flat bar I bent curved using a wooden form. The motor spins at 3450, so I figured metal blades would be a better option for me. It's been working well for over a year so far.
Matthias, fantastic work as always. your work never ceases to impress. keep up the good work!
Another nice build Matthias! The enclosed base of my tilting router lift is cleared by an external dust collector. This works quite well too but I found that the negative pressure as well as chip build up in the router's cooling vents caused the router to get hotter than normal under longer use. I solved this by hooking up a 4 in. flexible plastic dryer hose to the router's cap and porting it to a vent hole in the cabinet. Cool clean air is able to more freely pass through the router and this seemed to solve the problem.
A perfect mix of genius and clumsiness. Very educational and entertaining..
Once again Mathias, AWESOME!!!!! Oh, and LOVED the quick fix of the biscuits for the ledge to hold the insert! GREAT on the fly idea!!
Yea yours and john heinz ingenuity is on another level. Good stuff
Your love of dust collector is great, that's an understatement.
You make the coolest stuff. Thank you for making videos for all these years!
Very clever design. Love the versatility.
Its been about 2 years since UA-cam suggested one of your videos.
nice to see you again.
Every single router table should come with this design option. And every other tool where it can be applied. Genius.
This channel never gets old!
That ever increasing curve is called an involute. If you unwind a piece of string around a cylinder then the locus of the end of the string creates an involute.... Great job! Thanks very much.
I'm always impressed just how precise you can be freehand, I guess that's what you get with so much experience.
I have that same ryobi router. lasted me almost 20 years.
Every time I see a vid of someone installing their big dust collection systems I think about the various purpose built ones you've built. One day I'll attempt one myself.
You always challenge me to take on projects I would usually pass by. Keep them coming.
All the big ideals started from little ideals like this. Love it, thanks for sharing
Some of the shop details are works of genius. I'll never work the same again.
It’s good to see you making videos again. Keep it up!
Impressive and so thorough. You are truly skilled and meticulous.
Great build! Thanks, Matthias.
Great idea. Have been using your router lift for many years.
Wonderful design. Very thoughtful
You are amazing, the expertise in what you do makes me afraid to build anything because after watching you build i would be fat checking more than completing my projects. Thank you for sharing ( Stay Safe ) .
Wow!! This is the first of your videos I’ve seen, you sir have won my sub amd viewership! I can’t wait to check out more of your videos and try this for myself. I’m an appliance repairmen by trade so I have plenty of small motors and whatnot laying around, I may have to try this someday!!
Great idea Matthias, thanks for sharing.
So simple but so elaborate. You have to love a Matthias Wandel project!
Regards,
Etna.
Ingenious as always!
Glorious. Another great job.
Great job on the router table and dust collector Matthias! Thanks for sharing the video with us!💖👌👍😎JP
This reminds me of that air raid siren you made all that time ago. You should totally make another one!
I'm sure the neighbors won't mind 😅
😁
His smartphone already has an alarm clock.
@@spinningchurro so he has to make a smartphone controlled air raid siren to use as an alarm clock?
Yes! But bigger!
This is the type of video that caused me to subscribe. Thanks and appreciate the humor and reality of mistakes.
I wish I had your patience and skills, I would've saved a fortune !!
Good job !!
Nice build to see. Thanks.
I must look over your other videos again. I thought I recalled you concluding that flat blades were better than curved ones. Have to look again.
Incredibly effective, nice work.
How is literally every single one of your videos a banger?
You sir are a genius. Your creativity is smart and cool. Thanks for sharing.
It’s projects like this that initially got me into woodworking. Of course you can purchase a product that accomplishes this but it’s much more fun to build it and watch it come together.
Enjoyable video, I like the way you explain everything.
This was very informative and sparked my enthusiasm to try and build a dustcollector
Have fun. They can use so much less power and be so much more quieter. You will lose pressure with lower speed and bigger impeller. Still worth it.
Thank's Matthias. You produce some of my favorite UA-cam content. Keep up the good work. :-)
That one magic screw makes it all work. Great design and build!
So much ideas to translate in my workshop, really thank you for your knowledge sharing. This one and many others 😉.
This dude's skill set is amazing!!!
Wow. Some really inventive problem solving there.
Your the Einstein of woodworking sir matthias, greetings from the Philippines 🇵🇭
8:22 is one good use of those multitools you've previously said you never found much use for. It takes a steady hand to do well, I think I might get better results with one than a jig saw. But it's also way louder and takes way longer.
I was wondering how you picked the radius on the fins, and found in your article "I arbitrarily picked the radius for the blades to what seems intuitively right. I want the outer tips of the blades to be near tangential to the circumference and the inner end to be near radial." I liked the near tangetial, and near radial advice.
Thanks. I was going to ask that. Now I'll go back and read the article.
Such a clever bloke.
Beautifully done!
Well done Mat!
Amazing work!
Excellent, love the pace
Great idea. I'd tried dust extraction on my router table but this looks to be much more effective than what I achieved.
My idea of dust extraction is a bench brush.
Nice build!
Amazing how well your dust control trol works. Routers are the worst. Love your videos.
That's a great idea. Some slots near the edges of the top could provide additional downdraft dust collection for anything that shoots past the main opening when the fence isn't as close.
The format in which you present your videos is perfect. There's so many people out there that may very well be smarter and with better designs, but nobody cares because they don't take the time in editing to clean and simplify their videos like you do. Your videos allow people to actually get to a working feature that makes all future projects safer, less messy, and more professional. Thank you for what you do.
This is a lot tidier than my strategy of occasionally firing up the leaf blower and blasting out the garage.
But our solution works fairly well if I do say so myself!
Move to Oklahoma and get a shop with a door on either end. Open both doors and the wind will take care of the rest. Works for me, anyway.
That can be very satisfying. But in a basement, where you don't want everything covered in dust, not the best method.
Always love your work fella. Much love
Been watching your show for a while. You do come up with the most interesting projects. Think I'll make like a cat and copy this one.
my favorite kind of art thanks a lot.
9:14 Impressive zero-clearance insert, held in with a piece of paper.
paper? That's 0.004 fibrous shim stock!
@@52Ford I mean, it's basically super-thin particle board, right?
I get really bad sneezing fits from wood dust which has caused me to abandon woodworking... these individual dust collectors might just give me one of my favorite hobbies back. Thank you for sharing your knowledge and experience on these videos!
Oak does that to me.
nose plug
There's a website belonging to a guy that wrote extensively on the subject (he was apparently extremely sensitive to wood dust). You might see if you can track down the website of that guy - it's way, way too paranoid about wood dust for most people, but it might just be perfect for your situation. The only clue I have for you is that the Wood Whisperer referenced his work when he was doing dust collection for his shop - I'd offer more but I haven't watched those videos in a couple years or so.
@@UberAlphaSirus oak makes me thirsty. It smells like beer when I cut it.
You shouldn't, you probably aren't sensitive to all types of wood.
Wow, you are ingenious!
💯 Loved this build.
You always have some clever ideas! So fun to watch a video like this.
I'm so glad I found this. Instantly addicted
Wire you really love your dust collectors. Good job. I am not there yet. Wonders
Man i missed these types of videos!!
Super idée! Very good idea 💡!
Finally another blower video. Thank you , nice job
It’s probably one of the best router table I have ever seen, I did mine in a much simpler way using a car jack (aka crick depending how you call it :)). I have a wooden home made top, which I fished with oil (possible mistake) and a fence with a hole that is probably too big. The overall experience isn’t great, the work piece sometimes is hard to push, sometimes is too quick (plywood should be similar). Adjusting the fence is hard and without a feather is almost unusable...🤔 I’m using an Heinell router (not a trimmer), I was not confident nor precise using it by hand and I continue to struggle when it’s mounted on the table saw.. 🤗
Brilliant as usual!
Beautiful!
A bloody masterclass!
Great video. One thing though... It is understood that inside the cabinet is the dust bin, but I'd still put the blower in to keep the outside flat. It's a pretty large box and 6-8in of room could be spared.
As always, I'm impressed!
Great project.
That worked amazing!
I never stop to amaze myself watching you create these tools...big Quebec fan Mathias! I dream the day I have the room in my garage to make YOUR tools. And BTW, how many dust collection units do you have? That’s a lot of motors! Anyway love your ingenuity.
you clearly know what youre doing. very cool
You have an amazing mind!👍🏻
Very nice, thanks for sharing
nice set up
Beautiful!!
Wow what a great video!
Great job 👏🏻
Impellers aren't just easy to lay out, they're also the choice for fans that have to create pressure. Much harder for axial fans.
Nice job!
Thanks for sharing, as always, Matthias. A personal view is that it feels like some stages are skipped through a little quicker (forgive me if not) and I wonder if that’s because most of us have followed you for a long time and you feel we may not want to see it? You understand your video analytics much better than most (and SO much better than I), but I could watch more detail over more (or longer) videos with full enjoyment. Again, it’s a personal preference and certainly not a criticism.
