This is one of the easiest dust collectors to make and one that keeps the sawdust out of your shop vacuum cleaner. Super cheap to make and saves you money. Parts are easy to find. Prevents your filter from clogging prematurely in your shop vac. Separates the dust and debris with simple cyclone action. No fancy baffles. Plain, simple and practical. I made another version for WATER using just one pail ! ..... • How to Make ● Simple W... Makes a great fluid extractor!
NOTE: Some have said static could be an issue. When I tested this, it was on concrete and static was not an issue for me. If you are building yours on a wood stand, you may want to add a ground wire.
NOTE......CANADA uses black ABS pipe and the USA uses white PVC pipe . Either will work.

● Dremel Tool Bit .... amzn.to/2RGgRZt
● Buckets .... IMPORTANT NOTE ABOUT BUCKETS: I've been made aware that there are a few versions of this bucket across the US and Canada and some won't connect/mesh together well. Many of my great commenters have made me aware that Lowes buckets work just as well.
I thank this commenter @matthewolson5391 who supplied this info: "The HD buckets with “LEAKTITE” and the numbers “01453” printed on the bottom are the style buckets that will not go together. But using one of those and a green one from Menards that has “5140-1” does match up with a HD “01453”.

Just built this today, thank you SO much for the tutorial! I’ve been meaning to do this for ages, and finally found one simple enough that I couldn’t make any excuses. Assembly went smooth as butter, everything worked out perfectly. (I did use a hole saw for the bucket lid holes and enlarged them a little with a Dremel sanding drum to make a press fit for the PVC - my ancient snips wouldn’t make a clean enough circle) I picked up a big roll of sump pump hose (1 1/4”) at the home improvement store, and some T’s to run it to individual machines (drill press, band saw, lathe, sander). Finally, I have a real dust collection system in my modest workshop, thanks to you! Much appreciated.

Just made this! Great guide! After I collected all the parts, it took me about an hour to assemble. I did have the issue with the buckets fitting together as others have mentioned, but I solved it by removing a tapered slit of plastic from the rim of the top bucket so I can squeeze the bucket a little and fit them together. Now I can justify buying a much longer hose for my shop 😄

Chris, My hat is off to you. I recently looked at a "Home Workshop" cyclonic dust separator. $500+. I thought to myself, "what working person can afford that?", closely followed by, "there has to be an affordable way to accomplish this same thing." Thank you for figuring it out before I got started. Whether you realized it or not, this saved me and countless others, several hours of frustration, not to mention saving my wife from having to endure my outburst of profanity while going thru the creative process.

I made a 1 bucket cyclone with baffle and it works ok for capturing 60% of concrete dust from basement floor grinding. Thumbs up on the simplicity of yours. If you cut out a 2" wide window along the length of the buckets and weld a clear polyethylene over the opening you can see how to optimize the intake size/positioning.

Nice creation. This is perfect. I'll know a final total more when I get to the store and I'm pretty sure I have some clamps and plenty of screws around here to pick from, but I'm looking at about $25 for this build. This includes 4 Homer buckets. I saw your updated video about making it tougher. This looks way better than the Dust Deputy or similar product for about $50 or higher. I've seen some good reviews on it, but I've seen some bad reviews about it breaking or not sealing well. I'd much rather build this. Thank you for testing this and sharing this with us. Thanks again. This is great!!!!

Works like a charm. NOTE: BUCKET CHOICE MATTERS. I wasn't close to a Home Depot and used a local HW store bucket set. The ribbed areas at the top were narrower compared to the HD set. These other buckets worked but a little more material would have made a more secure interface.

Like many others here, I’ve watched many a video on dust collection, especially for a DeWalt DW735 planer. Thanks to others comments, I went to a Lowe’s bucket as the HD ones here are listed as ones that won’t work. To my amazement, the system worked flawlessly upon first use. All the shavings were captured in the bottom of the bucket, and nothing that I could see was captured by the vacuum. Thank you for sharing your knowledge!
