I'm using cheap 4" Sewer pipe, the thinner lighter pvc piping along with Whye and 45deg elbows. Picked them up at Lowes because they had the brighter white pipe compared to the sun-tinted stuff they had at HD. Since i was simply hanging them from the ceiling, i wanted them to look "nice".


Few things i'm doing which i'm not sure is fully necessary...

  1. Once cut and ready to assemble (i went one piece at a time, slowly measuring along the way) i lightly wax the inside of the pipes to keep things flowing nicely. No joinery, just pressed to fit by hand which allows me to expand easily like i did for this 3rd drop. I just wax as far as my arm can reach, not really worrying too much on the longer pipes.
  2. I have simple plastic blast gates... https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B005VRPQ92
  3. Remote controlling the DC via https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B072F9DGRL
  4. All of my drops have these quick-connectors.. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B009AY5ET4 . On the hose side i use their male connector https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B009AY5E94
  5. Since i installed a 4" piping and such, i reduce to 2.5" just after the blast gate/quick-connector... https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B002DSDSY2
  6. Then extremely flexible 2.5" hose to the dust boot... https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01M35BE8D
  7. Lastly into the SuckIt dust boot... https://www.suckitdustboot.com/product-page/suckit-dust-boot-for-shapeoko-3-xl-and-xxl?categoryId=7b98942b-ae43-e2ff-7e50-014f08c9ff6b

    1-5 work perfectly with my other tools... miter saw, table saw, router table, etc... Since i don't have it yet, i can't attest to how well all this will work the SO3 (:fingerscrossed:).
