Airsoft Shotguns – The Tough Guys Airsoft Gun

Every airsoft fan has a favourite type of gun. Regardless of your preferences there’s a certain attraction to shotguns that appeals to us all – to that dark place inside us. Maybe it’s the way they’re portrayed in the movies. The shotgun was always shown as being a real tough guys weapon – you needed to get up close and personal to use it. Shotguns were always shown to be cool and airsoft shotguns are no different in that regard. There’s a wide variety of shotguns available to the airsoft fan. Everything from the old reliable double barrelled shotguns to far more current styles. The double barrelled model is often sold in a gas variant model and is one of the very few gas powered airsoft shotguns available on the market today. Some of the most popular airsoft shotguns are the old pump action style (which are spring powered) and these have the advantage of allowing you to fire bbs in rapid succession. The vast majority of airsoft shotguns are spring powered and tend to be the tactical style – used by the police and military although you can get many other styles and models. There is also the option of choosing from the full stock or cutaway model of airsoft shotgun. The cutaway models have a pistol type grip and no stock to put against your shoulder. There’s an even share of this type of gun available to airsoft fans. What suits you most will depend on the style of shotgun you like and your own personal shooting preferences when it comes to buying your airsoft shotgun. Despite the fact that many of these guns are spring-powered pump action models they can hold 40 or more rounds. This allows for rapid reloading and for you to get back in the fight quickly. This offers a distinct advantage over an airsoft rifle where you need to cock it from a non-firing position. The shotgun allows you to fire from the hip in a rapid firing pump action style. Airsoft shotguns are probably more suited to close quarters airsoft games – maybe a type of urban combat simulation although they would still be useful in most types of airsoft combat. So why not try on an airsoft shotgun for size today? You just might like it!

Wood Shop Dust Collection

A wood shop could be a very bad place for you, in regards to your lungs. Without a good dust collection system, you are breathing in very fine airborne dust. And by system, it isn’t just collecting the sawdust from your machines you need to be concerned with.

Ambient dust is probably more of a threat to your health than the saw dust at the back of you machines. If you’ve ever seen a wood shop with sunlight pouring in through a window, the amount of dust floating in the air can be quite alarming.

I used to notice when visiting professional mill work shops twenty some years ago, had no dust collection systems other than the machine hook ups, but the air was filled with fine dust particles, which the workers were breathing, as they wore no masks. No one seemed to notice or care that they were breathing this dust in for eight hours a day. I can only imagine the condition of their lungs today.

The importance of ambient air filtration can’t be over stated. If you’re unable to afford a filtration system, wear a mask! Lung capacity decreases and is accumulative, meaning the damage happens little by little, and adds up.

The air filtration units that hang from the ceiling are very effective, are relatively inexpensive. I have one at each end of my shop. Splitting the space into thirds. They are also beneficial in reducing the dust entering your heating and cooling system.

In addition to the ambient air dust collection is the system used at each machine. These units generally have a grounded ducting running from the dust collector itself, to each machine. In a home shop, either P.V.C. plastic drain lines, or metal ducts are used to pipe in each machine.

Just before each machine the duct will have a blast gate. These are either manually or electronically controlled. Manual gates are simply opened and closed at the machine you wish to use. The electronic gates are activated by turning the machine on or off.

A grounding wire is important for a P.V.C. duct system in particular, due to static electric created by the air rushing through the ducts. Wood dust is combustible so having a spark inside the duct can lead to a fire, quite easily.

Metal ducting is easier to ground as it is metal, so fastening the sections together is grounding the runs. The end of the duct should be grounded. With a metal cyclone system, the unit is grounded, so the ducting is as well, once they’re screwed together. If the duct is connected to a shop vacuum, a ground wire should be fastened to the metal duct.

Shopsmith makes a dust collector that is very good for the home wood shop. It will clean the air in the shop, as well as handle saw dust collection for your machines. It can be hooked up to duct work, or connected to individual machines as needed.

An advantage they have over a shop vacuum is they are quieter than most vacuums, and have greater air flow volume. This is due to the squirrel cage style fan, similar to ones found in forced air heating and cooling systems. These units are very convenient for both home and job site use.
