Anyone have any experience with these machines? They look pretty slick… |

No experience, but it's nearly bigger than my shop. |

Their ad makes it sound very nice but I’ve never seen one. It looks like it would take a similar footprint as my Oneida cyclone but not as tall so there would be room for shelves or a cabinet above it. The Harvey has a smaller motor with a smaller impeller and pulls less air, my cyclone pulls 1340 actual cfm (2940 max) through a 7” duct, the Harvey is 1100 cfm with a 6” duct. Basically, I believe it is a somewhat less capable machine than my Oneida unit. The relatively low noise operation would be nice since my cyclone is very loud in my small shop. |

Stumpy Nubs did a video on the unit saying that due to how the unit functioned, it pulled as much material as his 5hp cyclone. Maybe less air, but as much material. I like the idea of brain able to keep in under a bench… |

Wow! I didn’t know about it until this thread. I went to their website and looked. Now I want one. |

Luckily enough, seems Stumpy Nubs posted a 4 year update video just yesterday: https://youtu.be/Ko9qdjclIdA?feature=shared Interesting that he compares it to the traditional cyclone |

That’s how it came to my attention… |

I’d be tempted if I didn’t already have a cyclone system that works very well. |

Yeah I’ve go an Oneida 5hp with a two foot run to the biggest dust maker which is a bit overkill. Trying to decide if longer runs or multiple units would be a better idea… |
