- I built this dust collection table from scrap wood, and hot glue. I am using a standard shop vac to power this downdraft table. If you want to check out an easier dust collection system click here • Dremel Tips - less fat...

Thanks for the advice,great job on the video 👍👍
cheers and thanks for watching
Made my own. I recline in an office chair to carve. I made a plastic box that I can set in my lap. It attatches to my shop vac. Thanks for the inspiration.
Sounds comfy. Cheers for watching 👍
This is so clever, I’m thinking of lots of uses for this. As usual Matt a great video.
Yeah, I reckon it has quite a few uses too.
Thanks, Matt enjoyed that. My kind of engineering, quick, easy, and inexpensive 😊
Yep, some DIY there. Cheers for watching Bernard 👍
The things one does when left alone for to long. Size does matter, it is just your own opinion? Excellent advice as usual. Loving your carvings on you table. 🏴👍😊
Cheers Charles, need to do a few more carvings on that table. 👍
Thanks Matt...all good tips...didn't think about sealing the carving area !...
I'll be saving this for my winter indoor table...
Have a great week...🌿🌿🌿
Cheers, Pamela. Yes we are going into winter here in NZ. Have a great summer ☀️
Thanks for showing that, and there are a multitude of ways to make it your own, for instance...I didn't want to make a box, so I used a small plastic bucket with a lip on the top to allow it to slide in from the top and catch. Then I pinched the bucket with the grating to hold it in place.
That is a cool way of doing it as well. Cheers for watching William 👍
Thinking of making a box like this but have it set on top of the bench since it is a multipurpose bench. Nice idea, thanks for sharing. I made mine a little large, with peg board. So i just taped off a couple rows of holes off with painters tape until i got the suction i wanted.
Sounds like it worked out great 👍
Nice little system, when I build a new table I will install one. 👍👍👍
Cheers Mark 👍
Bloody brilliant. Simple and effective. Thanks.
Hi Matt!
Super useful solution to dust!👍🏻
Nice work
Cheers bro. Dust aint a problem for you though, love that about knife carving. 👍
This looks very effective dust collector Matt👌👌🙂
Cheers Mahendra 🙂
Brilliant video. Thanks for sharing 👍
Cheers Hugh. 👍
great idea, I did mine but instead of a box I used a square drain down pipe and attached the hoover to the down pipe. it works for me, but I think that yours may work better.
Cheers Jackie. I think an important factor is for it to have good seals. 👍
Thank you so much for sharing this!
Cheers Ben
Howdy Matt. Awesome job on the suck table 😂
If I were to do something like that, I'd have to build a stand alone that would go onto of my table cause I ain't cutting into my bench, lol. Basically it'd be a drawer box type of build with the holes on top. When not in use, I can just slide it under the table like a tool box.
Yeah, I have seen people make portable dust collection boxes. Happy carving 👍
hello, I finally did it! I made the box a little bigger, but I don't think it's a problem once it's properly insulated. I had difficulty making the "gasket" with the perforated lid, because having a cheap heat gun, it is 3 times slower. I solved it by doing 2 sides at a time. I have to redo the top because I find the table too underpowered, I decided to reduce one row of holes on each side, and to make the holes at 4 mm instead of 6. for the rest I tried it, right now it sucks a... 65% of the powder, that's not bad at all! maybe with these measures I can take it beyond 70. I hope so, thanks again :)
Awesome, I'm glad it has worked out for you 🙂👍
@@MattCarves danke :D do you have Instagram? If you want I can send you the result
@@MattCarves hi, I did several tests, you were right, the more holes there are, the more the suction force decreases. but the larger the holes, the more the force increases. this is strange, but I did some tests, with a plate with 4 mm holes it didn't suck anything, with a 6 mm plate it already sucked more, and with an 8 mm plate, the one I decided to use, it works even better. I do not understand why
like the design but do wonder how loud the shop vac is, especially being in such close proximity but that dosen't take away from a good idea.👍👍
Yes it is loud, but got some good earmuffs. Power carving in general isn't quiet. Lol
Thank you Matt, that was very useful. I have a question. What was the diameter of the holes you ? and what was the spacing? Also, what is the dimension of the drilled area with the holes in inches? 1)_ I also wonder, if you had kept the Box smaller, limited to just the dimensions of the hole-drilled area, would you have got stronger suction? 2)_ Would your making the Box shallower also helped provide a more effective downdraft airflow? Would love to hear from you on this. Especially if you decide to tweak and experiment with your new table! Thanks and best wishes.
Hi Jay C the holes are a bit of a mix about 0.16 to 0.24 inch, the spacing approx 1 inch, drilled area is 5.5 x 5.5 inches approx. I had no real reason to make it that size I thought smaller the better, and also most of my carvings are about that size. I havnt had time to experiment but I reckon you could be onto something there with a smaller box. It seems logical that it would have more suction if the box is smaller. Let me know how you get on if you make one. Cheers Matt
@@MattCarves Matt, thank you for the information and your prompt response. Appreciate it. Best wishes.
This is an awesome video and your carving are very cool good sir! I was thinking of my own set up and I wonder if one could modify a small rubber made tub in a similar fashion? I feel like it would be light weight and movable, easily cleaned and pretty close to air tight. Just brain storming because I have a metal work bench and cutting a square out of it isn’t an option currently 😂
Cheers Blue Gill Boys. Sounds like you got a plan, probably the main thing to have right is to have it air tight, the material it is made from is not to important. Rubber would be interesting though might help with lessening the vibration of the rotary tool. Good Luck 👍
I just bought my first Dremel and it's great for fixing stuff and ... creating dust! It's a dirty bastard!! I didn't anticipate that. But other than that it works great haha!
This sucking table blows ... my mind!!! I need to build that. And I will build it as a unit in my DIY adapter table. What is that, you may ask? It's a sheet of plywood + legs and a hole 30x30cm on top and then a MDF board sitting on the inner rim made with a router before I cut the hole so the through hole is actually 28.5x28.5cm. What's the point with that? Well, I have several MDF boards with a power tool attached to each to make them table mounted e.g. a router, a jig saw, a circular saw and a blank for just a flat top. Saving a lot of money and space!!! Anyways ... the through hole is kind of off center 75% to one side on the big sheet and as the hole/MDF board adapter is square and symmetric I can rotate it and put any one of them in in 4 ways, front to the north, east, south, or west. That gives me different sizes of table surface for different types of jobs. So if I have the table with the hole to the left and the adapter plate with the tool to the left I have a large surface for material to the right. If I turn the adapter plate 180° around I have a small surface to the left to work on. It works sooo good. Now ... I'm in the process of getting the dust out of the system hahaha! And I also added the Dremel ... but your board would be a great solution. I have plenty of space to build a box under a MDF adapter and drill a few holes. Your best line in this video: "You can always drill more holes later". YES!!! Brilliant!
Cheers, yeah the dremel is a dust monster. your adapter table sounds great cheers for watching the video and happy wood working
V helpful video. I am considering having a similar dust collection system made. Can you share which model magnifying glass with clamp that you got in this set-up?
Cheers for watching. I picked up that lamp/magnifier from a local shop dosent really say the brand but here is the link to the product in NZ www.machineryhouse.co.nz/l2821?s=magni
I dont tend to use the magnifing glass to often.
@@MattCarves thanks for the info and link. Much appreciated 👍
hi 👋, I finally got a good professional vacuum cleaner, and I have to make myself this table. Can I ask you the measurements in cm? How far apart did you space the holes? How big is the section with the holes? How big is the box in total? thanks in advance if you answer me 🙏
Cool, here is an unlisted video on the measurements. yeah sorry got my cm confused with mm in the video. Hope it makes sense

Nice one Matt! I'll have to bite the bullet and put a hole in my table too! What power of suction does your vac have?
Cheers Claire. Not to sure on what it's power of suction is compared to others. It is a Nilfisk Aero 26 if that is of any use. 🙂
Great video Matt Thanks. Ive just started my table :} How deep did you make your wood box Matt?
Cheers Steve. about a 2.5 inches, just needs to be deep enough to fit the nozzle of the shop vac.
@@MattCarves That's great, cheers Matt.
hi, I'm about to create a similar table in my workshop. a year later, would you still recommend what you showed in the video? or did you find any changes you made? Anyway, I was about to buy a vacuum cleaner and wanted to ask your opinion. the one I wanted to get has HEPA filters and has a power of 70 l/s. it is from the "aertecnica" brand and is called TUBÒ force pro. In your opinion could it be good to use for this purpose? thanks if you answer me 🙏
Yeah I would still recommend what I did, still works great. Sorry can't really answer the vacuum question I don't know to much about them. Your probably best to look up vacuum comparison reviews. 👍
