    Hi guys,
    Has anyone used an ash hoover for cleaning up sawdust after sanding? Saw one on sale and thought it might do the trick, or is it a bad idea?

    Thanks guys for any help.

    I'd say it would suck up sawdust fine, and without damage to itself. I imagine ash hoovers have a fine filter to protect the motor

    Yeah I remember coal fire ash as being incredibly fine.

    Yep, I use my ash hoover more for sucking up sawdust than for the monthly range clean out. Works fine. If I have a lot of cutting to do on the cross cut electric saw I tape the nozzle to the sawdust exhaust outlet.

    I re-use all my shavings and sawdust in Molly's coop under her perch.
