Absolutely brilliantly simple, the only thing you might add could be to drop a large neodymium magnet in a bag to catch any metal screws or nails (having a small magnet deflection screen is also useful when grinding/cutting/drilling metal, helps catch metal fillings). Do you think if you had a small amount of water in the bottom it would help when vacuuming fine mobile debris like cement dust? Thanks for sharing

I admire all your videos: highest respect. However, in the States a common shop vac is $75 and a canister vacuum cleaner, required for this project, starts at $300.

Currently using this saw kzfaq.infoUgkx84IcU5pbZd1Qrz8u4-YRLmJax7kdRi7B to help replace some rotted wood around my house. For rough cutting through good, solid wood (not just the crumbly rotted parts), the saw is performing very well. Again, these types of saws are for rough cutting because the blade kerf is somewhat wide and the reciprocating action is rather violent and causes the blade to jump around a bit, even when the saw is tightly held and controlled. But if you need to quickly cut out pieces of wood or make clean cuts of pvc pipe (use a guide or jig to ensure straight cuts of pvc), then this saw performs very well. Highly recommend it.

Advoko, thank you for this. I have allergies and sensitivities and have to clean and wash my vacuum after each use. Building this set-up will make cleaning and washing the vacuum so much easier and faster even with the added cyclonic can. And, yes, I have to wash out the filter and hose, too. Most people do not realise that less crap in the vacuum bag blows less contaminated air back into the room via the vacuum's exhaust. Less crap in the bag also reduces the time the filter takes to get clogged. So all in all, less cleaning needed. Just dump the can and wash up what dust is left in the can, vacuum, vacuum bag, filter and hoses. The time saver is not having to pick out clumps of crap stuck in the screen of the bag. All this and no where near the price of those cyclonic vacuums on the market.

I have done this vary thing. Worked great. Even his vacuum looks exactly like mine. With this system you can find any used vacuum that has suction and use it. I use these for sanders and a larger version for a milling machine for metal chip collection. I was planning on a central high power system but probably will never even bother with that. Big reason for central vacuum system would be lower noise. I can place it in a shack outside my shop so the motor noise is out there not inside.

I literally had a dream last night about building a cyclone separator, and I wake up to this video. I was considering its use to collect soot (lampblack) from the smoke of burning pine fatwood. I wonder how well it would work for those super light particles.
@Advoko4 жыл бұрын
Probably, not too great. I have read a cyclone separator can trap 50-99% of really small particles.
@Nighthawkinlight4 жыл бұрын
I might give it a try and find out. Maybe I can get something working using only the draft created by my fire.
@NoctuaStrigiformes4 жыл бұрын
Use a rubber band to cover the output of the separator with a surgical mask, dust mask or similar. It might cut down on the amount of dust getting to the filter. A foam sponge might also help. A hepa (?) filter used as a pre-filter might also prove beneficial. Please post the results of your experiments.

@tommysedin4 жыл бұрын
Just a thought from someone with little practical experience of cyclone separators; Probably the soot is so light it'll not sink into the bucket but instead will go almost directly from intake to outlet. Maybe forcing the soot to take a longer path inside the cyclone would improve collection? Since you wouldn't be as restricted in terms of capacity, I'm thinking something as simple as extending a pipe from the outlet down towards the bottom of the bucket. If that adds too much resistance to airflow, maybe try drilling an outlet-sized hole in the bottom of a second, smaller bucket and mounting it to the outlet on the inside of the cyclone bucket's lid?
