Everything you need to create your own downdraft table, just add
your own wood and filters!
Build your own downdraft table and spare your wallet! This kit was custom
designed to make it easy and affordable to get the airflow and suction necessary
when creating your own in-home downdraft table. You’ll get the performance
of a professional model at a price that won’t bust your budget! Hardware kit
includes a plan; a quiet, prewired, fully-enclosed, fan cooled
3/4 HP motor; fan; custom air hood; prewired switch; finger guard; two
3'' casters; and mounting bracket. All you need to add is the wood and some
furnace filters. The plan is for a table with a 24'' x 36'' work surface.
The
hardware kit includes pre-wired motor; fan; custom air hood; pre-wired
switch; finger guard; mounting bracket; two 3'' casters; and Rockler’s
Anti-Slip coating. A plan is also included.
The Downdraft
Table hardware kit is designed to fit into a compact cabinet. The 1700-rpm
motor and fan draw air down from the work surface and through the filters,
keeping shop dust to a minimum!
Adding
safety and security to areas from floors to miter fences is as easy
as painting with our Anti-Slip Coating. Simply roll on the coating
with an open-cell foam roller in one direction, allow to dry, then
roll on a second coat in the opposite direction. It works on virtually
any surface (even
a porous surface) as long as it is clean and dry. The coating stays
permanently elastic and flexible. Use on work surfaces to help hold
projects in place. Non-flammable. Gray. Comes with the kit.

I purchased this kit about 5 years ago. As an amatuer woodworker I was a little worried about the construction of it. The included instructions we great, they take you step by step and detail everything. I work in the basement of my home as a hobby and this product does a wonderful job at cutting down on the dust, it is much more convenient than hooking up a shop vac to my sander and dragging around a hose. I would definitely recommend this product to anyone, it is a very functional piece of equipment and I enjoyed building it and customizing it as well.

This machine has been in use in a one-man professional shop for over five years. Function is flawless. Upon my recommendation, a colleague bought two and ganged them together for sanding long stock.
Improvements/changes: Instead of the channels for filters I put backing pieces inside and hold the filters in place with storm window clips. The shelves on the end keep sanders handy (I'm a lefty) and the 110v outlet in front is convenient. Having the air nozzle close is worthwhile.
I recommend you not buy the abrasive paint unless everything you sand is only one-sided. Alternatively, I used foot-square sections of a product called Dri-Dek which is designed for floormatting in wet locations. (full disclosure: I am in no way related to that company; there are other comparable products on the market.)
It pleases me that dust collection is so accessible to the amateur and professional alike, and this tool goes a long way toward reducing the particulates suspended in your shop atmosphere.
