JDS Air Cleaner

I installed the new JDS Air Cleaner last week.  It is a great unit.  Well-made, quiet and works like a champ. Highly recommended.   It replaces a weak ShopVac unit that was a waste of money.  Once again I have proved the old saying "There is nothing more expensive than a cheap tool." The JDS is not the cheapest, but should last forever for me.

The JDS is physically a lot bigger than it looks in the pictures though!  Slight dent in the side (shipping damage), but it doesn’t bother me.   The last couple of tools from Amazon.com have had minor shipping damage.  Not a good trend.

I will save the old ShopVac unit and try to use it as the guts of a home-built downdraft table someday.
