** Typically the debris generated in metalworking operations does not stay suspended - it falls right to the floor. You don't want to combine a metal dust collection system and a wood dust collection system, anyway (because it'll totally explode!). More pressing is fume extraction for hot metals, and I think Tom has a plan for that. --[[User:Dbever|Dbever]] ([[User talk:Dbever|talk]]) 16:55, 23 May 2014 (CDT)

* The tools in the cold metals area (lathe, mill, drill press, bandsaw) don't create much dust if things are working well (sharp cutting edges). Grinders are the dust producers in a metal shop and in our shop, these are in the hot metals area. Sometimes grinders, especially surface grinders, have dust collectors. With the particle counter, we'll be able to see if the grinding is creating an air quality problem and then deal with it. I agree with Derek - combing wood and metal collectors is not safe.
