Place some old carpet strips inside the cabinet and directly aligned with the exit port. Place a series of baffles between the exit port and bottom cabinet opening. these should cut your noise levels even more. I am now working on my shop and just placed a central vacuum. dealing with same challenge....need a Db reader. Love your cabinet work and it really shows you care about your equipment.

Good job on the build. Much better than before the noise reduction is awesome. I put my dust deputy and shop vac up by the front of the garage entry and use a hose reel (fast cap plywood reel) with 25 foot of pool hose on it I would like to reduce the noise and am thinking of a enclosure much like yours with the baffle. The washer idea will disapate the static charge. Yet if the metal switch box is grounded it would work even better. I found the static charge to build up on mainly on long runs of plastic and after long runs of the larger hp vacs. Not as much on the smaller shop vacs. I don't have mine grounded.

Well I built one today. Used a CNC to make a 23" by 23" by 23" cube with 2" box joints using quarter inch plywood. I lined that with 1' blue 4x8 foam board. I then made a 4.5" by 23" by 23" baffle box that will mount on top of this cube. The heat from the shop vac and the expelled air will travel through this baffle to the rear of the vac and blowout to the wall. I used 4" strips of quarter inch plywood inside the baffle box and split the expelled air down two separate zig zag shoots that were 3.5" by 4" tall and about 8 foot long of maze on each one. It's doing a good job and dropped the noise level considerably. The heat is rising and being expelled out the top through the baffle. Posting a youtube video on it as we speak. Thanks for sharing your ideas.

It does cut the noise a good bit. Like the way you made your cart. I would like to do something similar but my shopvac is a big craftsman and would be hard to put it in a box unfortuently. Also like your drill press and bandsaw carts.

@allanfischer9417 2 жыл бұрын

Interesting, but would have been much more so with some pictures of the baffle as that seemed to be the primary point.

@jessebutryn 2 жыл бұрын

Nice cart but that is not how grounding works fwiw. You can drive a copper rod into the ground 6 feet and still not have a good ground, that's why they are required to be 8 foot long. A zinc plated washer touching a concrete floor is providing almost zero grounding benefit.

The reason that your shop vac sounds like that is because the motor fan is dirty. You have to take it apart to clean it. I would say it has probably been used without a filter. You allways need a dry filter for dust ect and a wet filter for water

That is not a good ground. Not even for static. Also, line the box with carpet to really kill the noise level.

wow great idea but the reason why its so loud is the bearings in the motor are bad

@@RussHaynesWoodworking I bought my vac today, and, like every other vac, except the DeWalts that catch fire, it is loud as can be. Must be the bearings or a dirty motor fan lol. Thanks for this, you got a sub and like. I was planning on something similar, and it is nice to see how much quieter the thing is without putting foam in too: that stuff can be pricey.

How difficult is it to pull the shop vac out?

@RussHaynesWoodworking 8 жыл бұрын

+Allan Greendale You loosen and remove the connection between the shop vac's intake and the vertical pipe going up to the cyclone's output, then you simply pull the shop vac out of the cabinet and unplug it. Probably takes 90 seconds from the time you locate a screwdriver.

I hate to be the one to break this to you, but dangling a washer on the floor is not an electrical ground.

@CJICantLie 7 жыл бұрын

Ya, he has the electrical conduit box right there, with a real ground. Should take a few second to hook up to that and have it truly grounded.

@MikeHewitt 7 жыл бұрын

it is a sufficient ground to eliminate static electricity.

@msgajhimelret9496 5 жыл бұрын

That floor is painted, no "ground" contact... as said better to use the equipment ground...

@billhorton6596 4 жыл бұрын

It's not really a ground but a static dissipater. The saw dust traveling through the plastic can create static buildup, which would normally travel through the shop vac housing and wheels to the floor to eliminate the buildup. Since his shop vac is in a wood cabinet, he needs a continuous path for the static to travel back to the floor.

Does the 90 degree fittings reduce your vacuum efficiency?

@RussHaynesWoodworking 7 жыл бұрын

Gary Karczewski I'm sure it does. But shop vac is lower volume, higher speed, so I've never felt it was lacking in performance, even with all of the 90-degree bends.

@garykarczewski6678 7 жыл бұрын

Ok that is what matters.

@garykarczewski6678 7 жыл бұрын

Russ Haynes good point

@RussHaynesWoodworking 7 жыл бұрын

I think the severity of bends makes more difference in low speed, high volume systems like traditional dust collectors. At least I hope so, or I wasted time and money trying to eliminate sharp bends when installing my shop DC system.
