Just blow air through the back and put the same one back in?

Mine is a washable version of what you got. I think it ran me $30 or so. I bought it after blowing a hole through the one you have with my air hose.Just blow air through the back and put the same one back in?
Is this some kind of humble brag?Those of you that have air filtration systems, how dirty do you let the filter get before swapping them out? Do you take them out and blow them down? This is what the filter looks like after only about a couple hours of run time.

http://www.tnttt.com has more than you could ever want to know about building teardrops! I really wanted a teardrop or small pop-up camper this summer but so did everyone else so we never pursued anything due to the prices. And I'm not about to try building one myself but definitely jealous of those who can!lol I think its do able right?! after looking at the price of teardrop campers ($13k)?!??!
why the f not!
For those of you with dust collection systems, what do you do to clean the filter bag? I have a shop Fox with the plastic collection bag underneath a cloth filter bag on top. It doesn’t seem to have as much suction anymore and I assume it is just plugged up with fine dust. Anyone try running one through a washing machine before or just blow it out with an air compressor as long as you can and then just get a new bag when that stops working?
I had the 4100 and it was amazing. Best gravity stand on the market.I need a new table saw. The one I have is an old craftsman portable saw from the 80s. I have to spend forever adjusting the rip fence because it will not secure in a square position relative the blade without a ton of help. The miter is super loose, The top is pretty rough so material dose not slide well, and the whole thing damn near tips over if I try to cut a piece without holding the saw in place with my foot or my spare hand.
im torn between a good portable saw like the Bosch 4100 or a small cabinet saw like the shop Fox W1847. I don’t have a ton of space, and I need to store it when not in use. I want a good solid rip fence that is accurate, a useable miter gauge, a secure base that won’t slide across my garage floor when in use, and a smooth durable table top.

What’d you pay for it?I had the 4100 and it was amazing. Best gravity stand on the market.
I've done projects like that but then bought the doors:This is my current project. This was a blank wall between The entryway and garage. I opened up the drywall on both sides exposing the 2x6 framing. I then built the main locker boxes using 1/8 hardboard for the sides and 3/4 plywood for back and sides. These then slid between the studs and sit atop 2x4 platforms I built between each stud. There is a framed and insulated 2x4 wall surrounding all sides on the garage side which are then dry walled with 5/8 fire rated drywall. I then framed/ trimmed out the hallway side with poplar and built the lower cabinet. I have a top ready to cut and stain for the bench. Then I need to make doors for the lockers and paint the works.

Thanks, that was just the type of information I was hoping forI don’t own one but I found this with a quick google search. I use a shop vac and just blow out the filter on a regular basis.
Should I clean my dust collector's filter bag?
The inside of my dust collector’s filter bag is really gunked up. The collector seems to be drawing less air than it used to. Should I throw the bag into the laundry to get it clean?www.woodmagazine.com

Something like this is on my wish list for this year! In our garage entryway, there is a closet with about 3'x3' empty space in front of it which means all the shoes collect in that space and then the closet door cant be opened. We only keep a couple random things in that closet so I want to take out the door and build something like this instead. It will also free up the counter area that I'm using as a purse and lunchbox drop zone. Hopefully I'll be able to convince the other half to get started on it once football is over.This is my current project. This was a blank wall between The entryway and garage.
