I actually built a cabinet similar to the one Joe and others that a router lift is built into the table saw wing. The lift is enclosed and includes a 4” port to my DC. The fence is a square AL extrusion with a 2.5” port at one end tied to a shop vac. Both the 4” & 2.5” ports have blast gates. The center of the fence has a plastic piece that can be cut so that the bit outline closes off the hole directing the chips into the fence’s cavity then sucked out by the shop vac. I get very little dust and chips in the air. <div>Make sense?</div><div><br><div dir="ltr">Sent from my iPhone</div><div dir="ltr"><br><blockquote type="cite">On Dec 29, 2020, at 16:59, Clint Warren via Woodworkers <<a href="mailto:woodworkers@lists.sawdusters.org" target="_blank">woodworkers@lists.sawdusters.org</a>> wrote:<br><br></blockquote></div><blockquote type="cite"><div dir="ltr">

<p class="MsoNormal">Some sort of gate would also allow you to adjust for the right mix of upper and lower. I suppose you could put a gate on both, but I’d be inclined to do just the bottom one first to see if it was going to work at all.</p>

after all. I use a shop vac with one of those barrel cyclone collectors and hook it up to whatever machine I am using. I am making a new fence for my router table which would include a dust collection port. I was thinking of getting one of those hose splitters
and trying to collect dust from down below the router (which is enclosed) as well as from the fence. My knowledge of fluid mechanics is close to nil, so I was wondering if by trying to collect dust from both ports at the same time would diminish the suction
so that I wouldn't get anything from either.<u></u><u></u></span></p>
