The Dewalt 735 is unique in that it has a dedicated chip ejector blower, I figure it's there, might as well get some use out of the extra decibels it adds I consider it an essential piece, much like the infeed/outfeed tables (which IMHO should have shipped with it, even if it raied the price point) I paid 20$ for mine from a guy on craigslist that picked up a bunch of them lowes clearanced out at some point, but it would probably be worth the asking price now that I've used it. I have no doubt that at the velocity the blower sends the chips out at that it would blow them all over the place can or not if there wasn't some containment at the top, though you could probably build a seperator baffle for the top and end up with a good result (or use one designed as a prefilter for a DC system that sits on top of a container) I've heard of that before, but I would like to ask don't the chips just fly out of the top of the barrel? I assume your meaning that the extractor output is connected to a tube, with the other end just placed in the big can? I was simply wondering what differences and benefits a DC is over just a shop vac. But when I wear a dust mask, I probably breath in less sawdust without a DC then I would with a DC and no dust mask. He had to resort to public advertising to pay for the hosting costs of his site, but he is not selling anything. Look at Bill Pentz website for an enormous amount of information about dust collection, and the breathing problems he got from his woodshop that started his research. Planing without a dust collector? Out of the question. To be blunt, how good (or bad) your dust collection system is will determine how soon (or if) you will have resperatory problems.
