Just how do you clean the runs whether on the ceiling or under the floor to keep them from getting caked up?

Use a properly sized dust collector and run. No build up.


Glad its my shop I am responsible for - I only have to make me happy.

I was just wondering because I plan on putting some 6" on the ceiling and thought since dust has some moisture it might stick or now that I think about it static electricity may cause some to cling and cause a build up.

Over sizing the duct may cause build up. Not enough velocity.

If it did build up- perhaps a modified chimney sweep brush?

This is the collector I have saved for and getting

Grizzly

The inlet is 7" so I will get an adaptor from 7" to 6" and all the ducting will be 6" and down to the areas and change to 4" just before the machine.
Is that good?

Also we do have a chimney sweep that is 21' long, but it looks like I may not need to use it.
