Greetings,
I’ve got a nifty portable sawdust vacuum that is triggered by turning on the power tool that’s plugged into it, and runs long enough to clear the hose after the tool is turned off.
I’d like to find a similar aftermarket gismo to trigger the individual dust collectors hooked up to the stationary power tools in my shop.
Only one know of such a device?
Thanks,
Ken

Ken,
Check out FWW issue 143 pages 66-69. In the article the author describes how to make such system for about $50.00 and a little knowledge of electricity. The heart of the system is a toroid sensor. Check the article out.

I bought one at Sears about a month ago for $20.
Smile. It could be worse. You could be me working for you.
