<p>I built mine using a Penn State DC and plans from wood plans
online (Wood Magazine Issues # 100). I had a local sheet metal
HVAC shop cut out the pattern for the cone for me and they
supplied all the 6" duct work. It worked great in my 8' X 16'
shop, but I think I had too large-diameter ducting overall.<br>
</p>
<p>I'm just finishing my new shop and will be hanging the beast in
there, with somewhat re-designed piping. I'm thinking about 4" PVC
this go around and some better blast gates.<br>
