Short and sweet -- the Dust Deputy is far superior to the Rocker unit. I am disappointed.

Interesting Ken, good thing I've got the DD then :)

Any particular reason the Rockler unit is not up to snuff?



Ok, just had a look on google and it would seem (only by looking) that the rockler is not a true cyclonic separator and I take it that it doesn't collect the fines?

Correct, a chunk collector -- When I get a chance (who knows when) I'll take a look at making a custom baffle.

Last update -- Rockler is sending a UPS call/return ticket -- I have concluded it is useless and simply adds work and takes up floor space. The folks at Rockler need to re-think this product.
