Miscellanious
- After market Wynn Filter for the Harbor Freight Dust Collector - I don't think we will need this. The unit is planned to be outside, under an awning and I really think we should enclose it in a sound "proofed" box and vent the dust straight out the back. No real need for a filter. Chris may have other ideas.

Electrical Issues
- Discussion regarding need (or lack there of) for static removal systems for Dust Collection Piping
- MythBusters treatment of the topic - Conclusion, no risk of explosion/fire from static on PCV pipes.
- Information about how to ground a Dust Collection system. - They warn about fires and shock hazards.
- Bill Pentz article that includes discussion of risks of Static in a recreational shop Dust Collection System. - Conclusion : No Risk, but a good idea to keep from getting "zapped" when you touch the pipes.
- As I sit here thinking about this issue, I wonder if we should go ahead and ground the system to prevent any potential issues with the SawStop system on our saw?
- On second thought, the SawStop saw itself is grounded via it's power cord, so there should be no risk there!
- How To Add A Circuit To A Load Center (Breaker Box)
