Still trying to get my head around dust

Here's the place to talk about all your table saws, bandsaws, routers and dust extractors. In fact anything that makes noise and uses electrickery.

I found something quite amusing recently dust related. I have an extractor housed in a lean too. Whilst using the spindle moulder I found that chippings were getting chucked back at me which was weird as the hood works really well. When I checked the extractor the bag was full and so was the filter bag on top, right to the top.

Done similar to that with my thicknesses, that's why I have tried to make some sort of warning device when the bin fills up.
