i use a respirator (eye protection as well, of course) and a homemade dust collection port and box built around my lathe, attached thru a table to a shop vac. while it is in operation you can see, especially when sanding, the very fine dust getting sucked right in. what i really notice is the lack of fine dust build up in that half of the basement i used to have before i built this thing. this means its working. its in the containment and capture. between that and my respirator, i feel very confident in my safety from dust using this system.
