DIY Blast Gate Box Plans
Detailed plans for making a DIY blast gate box for dust collection.
The box has a main 100mm dust hose and two secondary 63mm hoses connected to a blast gate.
I've used a dust extraction cuff to connect it to a table saw or a router table.
It’s also designed that way so you can use the blast gate box in other woodworking tools.
These plans are included in the plans for the Mobile Workbench. Here you'll find them separately so that you can adapt this design to your needs.
