I use a Large shop vac that I just hook up to whatever machine I'm using! I even use it with small rotory tools an hand tools, it works pretty well! I use a disposable bag inside, it will really extend the life of the vac.
I was considering a vac .
Did you construct a cabinet for the vac whilst using a rotary tool? people have mentioned it to me basically a small box open at the front but not tried it yet
No, that would probably be a good idea -- I simply clamp the hose near my work and it does a pretty good job of sucking up the dust! You don't want to be cheap with the vac -- get one with good sucking power and good capacity! I've used mine for years!
My shop gets covered in dust. Last weekend I opened the back door, put a big (4 foot diameter) fan in it and fired up the leaf blower. It's amazing how much dust you can stir up with a leaf blower. I got a lot of it out of my shop though.
