Following on from my comment below, all my tools are on wheels as I share garage space with the car. My mobile vac setup might work for some other viewers: I use a small domestic cleaner that we bought thirty years ago. It has staggering suction, but was never used because it had a pathetically small fabric dustbag. Five years ago I made a thien-baffle separator for it (your cyclone would be even better), using ideas gleaned from numerous KZfaq videos. It's not perfect, but absolutely worthwhile. I mounted it in a simple trolley with a flat top to lay tools on, side hose hooks, cord storage, power plugboard, and an anglepoise work lamp. It comes with me as I move around, and has become my best workshop buddy.

The big cylinder on the top half is a good idea as fine dust tends to ride up the middle on narrower, funnel shaped designs.
@kurtbilinski17233 ай бұрын
When connected to a CNC router, sometimes small parts break free of their tabs and vanish down the hose. Having a bag in the shop vac is great for keeping the filter cleaner, but makes finding the lost parts annoying! A dust collector makes it easier to retrieve them.

That's excellent! I made a Thein baffle separator a couple of years ago. I chose that because it was simpler to make... it has been fantastic, but I don't think it is as good at catching the fine dust as yours is. I also 3D printed a cylinder that was internally threaded to fit my vacuum hose; this allowed me to join two lengths of hose as required, and works really well. This could be a good solution for attaching fittings to your hose, and if you ever remake the separator, would allow a tidier way of attaching the hose than using duct tape. Thanks for your videos. Liked & Subscribed. (The under-extrusion was amazing!)

Very nice, definitely going to be printing this this weekend! Did you happen to include slicer settings? I’m on my phone and printables is kind of clunky and I’m not finding them if they are there, sorry if they are!
@SirKuhnhero Жыл бұрын
I did not include slicer settings. Three or four perimeters and a bit of infill should work fine. Sorry for the late answer :) Edit: Consider uploading a make. I would really like to see some other people print it.

as you already mention you have a problem with air speed. your working hose must be equal or smaller than one from cyclone to vac. also you can make a dedicated vacuum pump for this. using regular vacuum cleaner is excessive and it's dust bag cuts some effectiveness. i personally make one for myself and its great. i just took a vacuum cleaner motor (cheap) and build plywood box with a filter around it. then connect it to the cyclone with a short PVC pipe. it is much quieter than regular vacuum cleaner with same performance.

I might do that in the future. Thanks for bringing that to my attention.

For anyone that is watching this ,you made some errors. Top sectionat 3:56 Intake for a dust hose needs to be tangent to a cricle which is ok but its diameter must be 1/4 of the top section inner diameter.So for example if your top part has diameter of 100mm hole that hose goes int needs to be fi 25mm. Now the biggest mistake you made is that the pipe section for attaching the vacume cleaner at 07:17 is flat with acrylic lid -that pipe needs to go below the 25mm(in my top example) tangential pipe. If tangential intake pipe for a dust gathering hose is at middle of the top section the intake pipe for a vacume cleaner needs to be at 3/4.So it needs to go slightly bellow.

Thanks for the tip. When I do version 2 at some point, I'll make sure to implement that :)

@@SirKuhnhero Its not easy to make efficient one if you dont have size ratios. Unfortunately i cant give you a link since youtube deletes those 90% of time. But there is interesting article about cyclones and with formulas if you type in google: e info wiki cyclone separator. You can determine Diameter of body by 2x size of the vacume cleaner hose. After that rest of the values are easy.

I haven't made any changes to my Cyclone yet. But I think these changes would make a big difference. If I make a V2 at some point in the future I will definitely include them.
