Thanks for the advice Jim - Actually, it's hard to tell from the picture, but the whole side of the PVC that comes to the plate is cut in half. The ONLY problem that I foresee is that I'm going to have to make the long tube longer at some point - when I change the wheel. I just did two sets of blades and the dust was minimal - especially on the final pass. Before this, I could see the dust flying (as sparks are much smaller on a final pass) See that picture icon in your reply box? Right next to the smiley? Click on that and put the address of where the picture is hosted. Just make sure that the picture is of non-offensive size (1024x768 is the biggest that doesn't necessarily mess with the look)
