Many years ago I bought The Woodworkers Choice DC unit. I believe it's 1.2 horse power. It came with a 2 1/2" dust collection kit with plastic piping that I had used in a basement shop. My shop now is in a metal building where the metal wall supports are about 3 feet apart. The connections on the 2 1/2" plastic piping aren't the best so I am thinking about converting everything that I can to 4" wire reinforced hose. I'd have to keep the 2 1/2" inch blast gates for the router table and my planer. Everything else is 4" anyway. Just curious if I am chasing my tail by changing it and whether it would be more efficient. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
