I have this 2hp Jet dust collector for sale. Works great, missing the band clamp that holds the collection bag on. Pickup only in Portland Or.

Woah. The motor turns the other direction. Kewl.
Huh?
A majority of currently built dust collectors rotate clockwise facing the intake. Yours rotates counter clockwise. In itself, makes no difference in performance. More important in yours is the amount of high off center position of the impeller. This results in a higher static pressure as the air moves through the tighter gap at the top then expands towards the bigger gap at the discharge. This blower will move more air than similar designs with a more centered impeller. It should work quite nicely for whoever gets it.
Ah interesting! It definitely does pull pretty hard compared to the other jet dust collectors I have
What he said. I sadly would find a home for it, as my CNC mill arrives next week, but I'm in AZ and it's too far away to make it financially responsible.
I personally like collecting the steel blue generation of jet tools. For less than your dust collector I picked up a 3hp table saw in the same color. I think it's mid 90s and earlier. All I added was a switch and power cord.
I have that DC and it is very strong. I converted it to a cyclone bought from eBay years ago. Does a great job. Cost was around $600 for the DC, cyclone, relay, and remote. Works as well as any bought cyclone system.
