Metal cutter used in video: amzn.to/3Oun359
wide chicken wire, cut in a rectangle leaving an inch above and below so the chunks get out. Add an owl sculpture they use on boats.
A friend makes a carpenter bee trap. May send you one to try. He lives in Georgia and has the same problem. Take care
Looks good to me myself and i......Thanks Nathan 👍
Old nasty Shoe🇺🇸
Put a 90 degree elbow on the discharge and extend it downward 6 to 8 feet.
I was going to totally suggest this idea. 100% agree.
Keeping birds out, you could put a hinged flap. Opens when the air comes through, closes with gravity or a small spring.
I agree
That was going to be my solution, too.
I tried that years ago. The birds fly in place, lift the flap, and go in in tube. Smart little animals.
Yes, like a dryer vent flap
It’s still a deterrent. But if Nathan is using it pretty regularly, it might not be an issue (or become one).
Hello, put a flap on your exhaust. When it's off uts closed, when running it will swing open. Just like a tractor exhaust stack only horizontal.
Great videos!!!
I was thinking the same thing
Just had the same thought... :)
After seeing a million of the same flapper ideas, I changed my mind... get a sign that says, "Stay out. "... that should do it! Lol!!
For the bird problem I would cut a flap out of some your left over metal siding and attach it to the top with small hinge. Should act like a tractor exhaust flap.
Put a dryer vent cover on it with a flap. Running it open and off it closes
Moth crystals around the opening of the pipe will work too.
I know a guy that has a fancy wood splitter for your firewood, so you don't have to split them into kindling by hand ;-) Doors came out nice Nathan. Keeping the birds out, that'll be a challenge. A flap of some kind, maybe automate it mechanically?
Hinged flap. I know someone else has mentioned it also. When the strong air goes out the flap opens. When it's shut off, the flap closes.
I agree with all who have suggested a flap. Similar to a dryer vent, open when dust collector running, closed when off.
Maybe try a chain curtain or even plastic. That will blow open when you are using the blower and look like it is solid to a bird.
for your bird problem I would suggest a flap like on a dozer exhaust the air pressure from the fan would open when in use and it would close when not
G'day Nathan, I have been erecting sheds for 30 years and the screws for that cladding should be beside the Ridge
Hey Nathan, just run the blower every day or two. Eventually they will get the message and find a new home. I have a similar problem with birds making a nest under the eves on top of the gutter drain pipe. I just hose them off every few days during nesting season.l
Place a vent similar to a dryer vent. The only time it will open is when the exhaust is turned on.
For the vent try a one-way dryer vent
Nathan you could put a flapper on it, this should allow you blow out the sawdust and when not in use the flapper would stay shut..
How about something like the top of a diesel exhort flap that opens when the fan is on and is closed when it's off.
they shrunk the 16 oz. spray cans to 12-13 oz.
Need to add a Mama Cat shirt to your merch, would buy.
Create a cap that you can put over it when not in use. I have a friend that uses a PVC cap and when he turns his unit on the clap blows off and when he turns it off he recaps it. I will admit his exit port is closer to the ground than yours. Nice work on the doors Nathan - they really look good. Stay safe.
can you put like a dryer vent type cover that opens when the air starts blowing out.
try fashioning a flapper valve like on an upright tractor exhaust pipe
Busy couple of days Nathan, take care
I think an exhaust flap like on a truck will keep the birds 🦅 out
Good job on the doors Nathan. Got a question where do you put your lumber to air dry and also after kiln drying
Thankd
How about a dryer vent cover but custom made
A flap of some light material
What about chicken wire over your dust collector
In regards to your dust blower stack, put a 90°elbow on it then face it down with a 2 ft. Pipe on it,the bird can't fly up it! Z Phoenix AZ 🌵
Nathan: The main reason I watch your videos, aside from your skills as a sawyer, is that you are a good communicator, and that is why I watch Richard a Smoky Mountain OutPost, Evan at Country View Acres Al at Lumnah Acres and Sam at Green Acres, because all these people are GOOD talkers. You all tell what you are doing, why you are doing in a fluid manner with out gaps in the story line, and when there are gaps, you say why.
Keep doing what you are doing! I"m a retired Journeyman Lithographer and I took pride in my work, and I can see that you do too!
Thanks
I appreciate you sharing that. Means a lot.
I talk to Richard often. Top notch
Turn that elbow down and put another piece of pipe on it so they have to hover to fly up the pipe and you can get a Hawk decoy to put on top of it. Turning it down with a longer piece of pipe should do it! Hope it helps and good luck!
How about using a sort of "windsock" type device. It will allow the wood chips to be blown out, BUT when not in use, it will hang limply.
Birds will not try to fly UP the wind sock into the exhaust pipe.
A 90 degree bend and a 12 inch pipe straight down, that keeps the birds out, they don't like flying up inside a pipe.
2 -45* bends should off less obstruction to flying debris than 1-90* bend plus add the 12 to 24-inch pipe to the end turned down. Do not put anything in the pipe as a restriction, it will catch stuff and eventually clog up.
Screw a plastic owl above the outlet pipe … someone also said put a flapper on it. That is also a very good idea.
Agree with the flapper.
Either will probably work. I had a similar situation. Birds were nesting in my sawmill. Put a plastic owl near mill on wall, haven't had anymore problems. Flapper wouldn't have work in this case.
I think the owl idea will work a buddy of mine uses one to keep the birds from flying in his garage and never happened after he put it in it's place
@@jeffhuffman5433
Awesome I have done it on a few locations on my property where I didn’t want certain animals and the owls work great for me I even have an Owl by my chickens and it works there too
Hey Nathan. I was going to say like the other gentleman put a cover over your tube would like a one-way door on it. Just like when you see on the dryer vent when the dryer comes on the flapper opens when the dryer goes off it closes. I would look into that for your ductwork
Put a Flap door on it, opens when on closes when off, gravity should take care of closing it! John
Two solutions…
Install a bag or metal catchment box made from aluminum onto the pipe that can easily be removed with a squeeze type clamp… then you could just discard it as it filled up…
Another simple option would be to point the pipe in a more downward direction, making it much harder for them to easily fly in, and made add a couple of vertical wires inside the pipe.
Put a rubber snake in the end of the pipe or an owl decoy. Either one might help
Liking the new music.
Looks good Nathan. A long down tube on that pipe may keep the birds from flying up in there. The wood chips will probably keep the bees this summer
Put a piece of flexi hose on it!
Nathan,
To keep the birds out of the vacuum lines, go to the hardware store and buy some weighted flappers. The weights will keep them closed until the system is pressurised.
Hope this worked for you.
Ted Darling
Rapid City, SD
Your doors turned out beautifully.
Use a weighted cantilever flapper/cap on the pipe? The air pressure should easily open the cap and close once you cut the power.
Weight can be adjusted as needed.
great job Nathan. Love your informative videos.. Also, love the music that plays about 6:35 into the video. Great music! I have really enjoyed watching your videos and am going back into the archives and watching those that were here before I was. Thanks for bringing me along!
Perhaps a fake owl perched over the vent would discourage nesting birds. Edit: I made this comment before I read any others. Sorry, Freddie2598.
Ha Ha…looks like Lowes Hardware changed their building color from Blue to Orange…:-)
To keep birds out, turn discharge elbow 90 degrees down with a small extension. Birds can not "hover" vertically in a tube.
A flap would work as other have suggested...other option would be to extend the pipe vertically downwards about 2ft...birds wouldn't be able to get up inside it then..and your chipping would form a nicer pile on the floor. Loving the doors.
McMaster Carr makes exhaust pipe caps of various pipe sizes. hey are weighted flapper valves that open under slight positive air flow. Otherwise, they are held closed by gravity (which never fails). They're not very expensive, but must be oriented just right so the work.
Add a vent damper, like what’s used in hot air furnaces or boiler vents. Probably have them at HD or your local plumbing supply store, and they might even stock the exact size for your dust collector exhaust pipe.
Hey Nathan how about a flapper like on an exhaust pipe of a big rig? And just joking with you, when did Lowe's start selling Behr paint products? Love your videos very much and thank you for the time and effort you put into all your videos.
I like that corny little intro of yours, the barn door and lowering the camera. Golden.
2:44 Sir, with all due respect, your American flag is backwards. When hanging down or flying normally, the star field should always be on the left.
Hmm here's a thought Nathan, make an end for your exhaust pipe with 1/8" diameter wire that is spaced 3/4" apart (depending of course on what type of bird likes to nest in there), all the wire should be parallel. If the attachment is made out of ABS or PVC pipe it can be rotated so that the wire is either vertical or horizontal, it may be adjusted to find out which orientation works better at not trapping dust. No moving parts, and I find that the flap on my dryer vent always catches dust and lint up at the hinge which eventually needs to be cleaned. Great video thumbs up.
18" of vertical down spout will limit birds and most other types of critters. RAY
If you were trying to stiffen the frame by adding tiny "L" brackets, you'd be far better off by putting some titebond glue at the joint...stronger than wood.
Hello from South Arkansas. I really enjoy your videos. I’ve ran sawmills in the past and cut firewood to heat my previous home for over 20 years . on your dust collector exhaust I would try a spring loaded flap like on a clothes dryer. Keep up the good work.
How about a 90 pointing down with a straight piece going into a builders sand bag. If you got 2 bags it’ll be easy for removal with forks & replace with new bag for collection. Keeps the area tidy too.
Nathan you’re doing a fantastic job. Those doors look great!👍❤️
Re: your bird intrusion: DO they make a large enough , or could you fabricate a "flapper valve" like you would see on a dryer vent?
Looks good Nathan, coming along well with the side chores around there. Stay safe and keep up the good work and videos. Fred.
Plastic Dryer hose cover which has larger holes and used to keep birds from nesting. Might work. Problem we have had in past.
Spring secured end cap that the spring is strong enough to keep closed and weak enough to be overcome by the force of the wind being blown by the dust collector. Somewhat like the flapper on top of a semi exhaust stack. Maybe???
I would make the exhaust into a 90 degree with a short leg. I don't think a bird can fly upside down, up and back into the pipe. This will also keep out rain & snow.
On the exhaust duct for dust collection: Self opening/closing louvers should deter birds etc. also if you point the discharge down about 18" birds will not be as attracted to the opening for nest building.
Hey Nathan. I cannot tell the diam of the pipe, but if it is 4 inch, they make a bunch of ends to go on dryer vent to keep out birds. Or if bigger, I wonder if it went straight down if that would keep them out. then could also put an icb tote under it to catch the dust and move it like firewood. Regards, Doc Henderson
PS I wonder if using some titebond 3 with some of your doors, may also make then more rigid over time, and keep them from sagging if the screws allow sagging over time. the barn doors should be ok as they are supported across the top and not from side hinges. Doc.
You should try the suggestions first. If it doesn't work call your local Hvac guy and see if he is smart enough to wire you in a motorized damper that works power closed and open and put an inspection door next to damper for cleaning. I could not see the cuts you had finished with your tin snips. Get a bigger pair of tin snips. I learned from a metal master. All he ever used was the red and green snips and the big hand snips. That is all I have today 43 years later. Cutting anything over 2" use your big snips. By no means do you cut to the end of any of the snips. If you did you see the little notch the snips makes.
The comment about a flap is a good one, I wonder if a flap assembly for a outside clothing dryer exhaust would work?
Or maybe an old style set of louver like they use on exhaust fans or ceiling fans that the moving air open?
I know, this may come off as sarcastic but, maybe now you can take the time to do the siding project on the chicken house you've been putting off for a year. With your skills I think it would only take a couple days. I know when summer comes you have a lot of ground and ditch work to do.
Most of the people here have given you the best answer, ie: extend the existing pipe with a 6 to 12 inch straight pipe, then another 45 degree bend which point the opening towards the ground. Then connect another 2 to 3 foot straight pipe which will then allow you to place your blue Logrite dump trailer or another one, under the pipe to collect the shavings. There may need to be a 1 or 2 foot gap between the end of the exhaust pipe and the top of the trailer to stop back pressure from the exhausted air blowing the shaving in and out of the trailer. This would fix two problems you have at the same time. Good luck and enjoy your videos.
They make flapper valves for bathroom exhaust. Solved a bird problem I had.
Try a fluttervalve. It will close when the vacuum is off, and open when it is blowing on.
Some good suggestions for the bird problem. I wish you were located in central Tennessee instead of the Northeast corner. It would make for a shorter trip for me. But I got to admit that you have a nice place where you're located.
The paint on the outside of your hardware store of choice looked more like Home Depot Orange than Lowes blue to me.🤓LOL
Fix the bird problem with a vertical hanging damper on the duct. One that is closed when the system isn't running, but opens when it is.
Great video. Gave me an idea
THANKS Nathan!!😃
Turn it straight down for a couple of feet. Don’t think they’d be able to crawl or fly up the pipe. A flapper won’t work, they’ll still get in.
I got the War of Art. Half way in, I like it. Thank you for the recommendation.
Thank you for editing so we weren't watching paint dry...
Put chicken wire over the end. No wood chips should caught in it!!!!!!
Nathan a louvered dryer vent flap works great. Been using that for years on my dust collector exhaust.
Some kind of flapper??? Like that would be on a tractor smoke stack?
Buy a small bird cage large enough to go over the end of the exhaust tube. Fabricate or rework it as necessary. Attach it as needed to keep it in place. Birds can't get in. Check to make sure the chips get out. Problem solved.
My thoughts on the bird issue: some sort of metal tines that point out. That stuff they put on statues and tops of signs to keep birds off, just angled pointing outward. That way, they will not impede anything being blown out, but prevent a bird from trying to push in.
I searched 6" exhaust vent on Amazon. Maybe take off the 45 you have on there and put on an exhaust vent. ??
Nice job on the sliding door Nathan…enjoyed watching you complete that project
Tractor flap. The flap you see on semi trucks and tractor exhaust. It would open as the wood chips fly out and close when it’s off.
What about something like a powered dust gate that opens when the molder/vacuum system is running and closed when it’s not.
As previously said by another person you could like a big tractor exhaust flap or maybe chicken wire. The bird building the nest is probably a Starling. They nest in holes and indoor spots out of the weather. I actually had a problem a few years ago with them in the eves of my house. I've even seen them go into a dryer vent with a plastic guard on it on the outside of a house. And if they nest there one year in which they raise two broods they will do the> darndest to nest there in the future.
Hang some light chain or plastic beads from top of pipe that will blow out of way when vacuum/blower is on but looks blocked when its off
Instead of filling the knot hole with expensive epoxy, why not mix the cheaper wood glue with some saw dust and fill it?
Your Lowe’s has a funny orange sign, Nathan. Must be a regional variation 😂
Hang a canvas sock on the dust collector pipe,it will hang straight down and the birds can't fly in.
we call that a Home Depot up north here, different names for different places.....
A simple flap that blows open.... like you see on the top of vertical exhaust pipes..
You could direct the output into a large barrel instead of just out like you have it. We had a similar issue with the house and birds getting into the attic and building nests and yes, a screen solved that issue. Nice doors by the way and I like what you have done with the place.
Have you considered mounting an owl decoy on top of the dust collector shoot outside ? I think that will discourage any nesting birds from choosing that location to start a family.
You need to get a dryer vent cover for your sawdust exit that has a swinging flap that is designed to keep out varmints & birds.
Cut your pit off at a 90* fabricate a old tractor exhaust cap tapper....$00.02
