Allocate $700 from the organization funds for parts to complete a cyclonic separator dust collection system for the woodworking area.
Background
Woodworking dust mitigation has been a longstanding issue at the hackerspace. Various member-driven DIY solutions have been attempted and ended up being either incomplete or unimplemented. In our latest effort to solve this problem, we communicated with a dust collection system manufacturer in hopes for a product donation, however they ultimately declined to help at this time.
At this point in our development I see value in spending organization funds to invest in a reasonably priced and capable dust collection system. The system would be completed in a timely manner and integrated into the current plans for the woodworking area. I base my proposal on this design from Kreg forums because we already own some of the components to complete it[1], thus recycling what we already have and driving down cost. While the system shall be constructed to be mobile (moving from tool to tool), we have material to attempt a stationary installation for added value. The cost breakdown follows. Note: expenses are overestimated for engineering purposes and efforts to cut costs on the project shall be attempted[2].
| Part | Cost |
|---|---|
| Cyclone | $180 |
| Cyclone Brace | $50 |
| 5" to 4" Reducer | $20 |
| 6" to 4" Reducer | $20 |
| 1.5HP Dust Collector | $350 |
| Lumber, casters, other hardware | $80 |
| Total | $700 |
[1] - Namely a Rubbermaid Brute trash can, trash can lid and possibly dust collector unit.
[2] - Expected cost savings include: purchasing inlet reducers locally from Home Depot - if compatible ($23 savings); replacing cyclone brace with scrap lumber ($50 savings); re-appropriating Harbor Freight dust collector currently used by metalworking members ($350 savings) OR buying same 1HP collector from Harbor Freight (up to $185 savings); using lumber/casters/hardware already available in the space (up to $80 savings).
