i think itd work 2 if u did like u have but put it in the table like face down and that way the dust will fall down and even the really fine dust will get sucked in

Have you noticed that once you turn the fan on, the fan's suction sucks the filter in. Ergo, you don't need any tape. I agree with the suggestion to turn the table horizontal when sanding over it.

haha a local tire shop uses this to get rid of smoke and debree when working, they hang the filter and box fan from the ceiling! I also like there 5' tall ball of tire stickers :)

I have the same exact fan and idea just havent done it yet so this vid gave me some ideas.

Another good economical idea! I already have the dust masks and fan so whala. Perfect. Now all I need is the filter. Easy.

Great Video

Id love to see your bird carvings.

One idea that was passed on to me was to use the blue washable filters as the first layer, then use the fine 3m filters after that. It prolongs the life of the ultra fine filters.
