Can anybody recommend a quality dust collection system that goes for a reasonable price? I have an old Shopsmith Mark V.

Quality and reasonable price is kind of an oxymoron. You can plan on spending around $2K for a quality system that will run 4"-6" lines or you can set up a large shop vac for under $100 and run 2 1/2" lines and make your own adapters. It is not any easy thing to accomplish. If you do a lot of sanding you definitely want to protect your lungs and need to get a good DC system./DesktopModules/NTForums/themes/mls/emoticons/w00t.gif
