Record Power DX5000 Workshop Extractor Mod... because i'm too Short

The only space i had for my workshop extractor (Record Power DX5000) was high up on the wall, and because i'm a not the tallest person out there, and my medical issues stop me being able to reach up there, I needed to design ( with Autodesk Fusion ), mark out using LightBurn and a Ortur Lasermaster2 and then cut out the pieces of Baltic Birch Plywood using my Record Power woodworking machines.

Not really a Worksop Hack but definately a small fun engineering project that kept me occupied on the few rare days this month when my chronic illness allowed me to be slightly physical.

I want to show that how living with mental and physical health issues has been helped so much by having a hobby.

I hope you enjoy watching the build process and welcome your comments.

Thank you for watching.
