Minimum 3hp. Anything less may struggle with the planet.

All, thanks for all the advise! I now know what to look for in used or what to buy if I decide to buy new. If I cant find anything used in the next few days I will go for the Jet vortex.

I have it's predecessor for quite a few years, from before the vortex cone, and it serves me well.
Jointer, planer, drum sander, table saw, router table, etc.
One at a time, of course.
Oh, you can buy it at your price point with a regular bag instead of the 2 micron canister, but the canister is well worth the upgrade.
I totally agree with this!! I will add that when dealing with MDF and other products personal respirator is still an absolute necessity.
I have this unit when I put in my ducted system I figured try it first just to see what it would do rather than buy a new blower.
Guess what? It works fine. Pulls saw dust from my TS 25 feet away, and even with a cyclone!!
In my case I've vented outside and I think this negated the CFM degradation of the cyclone.
