You can lower the cost of your PVC pipes by buying longer lengths. If you're worried they won't fit in your car, bring your favorite battery powered cutting utensil, and cut them down in the parking lot.

Nice job young man. One thing I’d like to point out though. If you have the room use 45 deg fittings instead of 90. Will take a bit more space but the airflow is much better. One other item viewers might find useful. In my small shop I have a decent roll around vac. I found on Amazon a wonderful super soft and flex hose. It comes with 2 quick connect fittings. Having 5 machines I wanted to hook up to I simply made the quick connect fittings for each. So simple as all they are is a standard piece of tube with a little groove cut in. ( yeah I’m fortunate because I have a lathe lol) now I adapted with fittings to each machine. I roll my vac close to the machine I’m using . Boom! Works great. Thank you for the video young man!

As a former Fire Chief that had a concrete building's 150ft long x 20ft high wall blow out into a parking lot and crush some vehicled from a dust explosion caused by static electricity. I woyld not use pvc but if i did, id ground that entire pvc system using bare copper wire. Its easy to do. In my own shop i ran 8, 6, 5 and 4 inch galvanized 'stove pipe', screwed and taped with AC aluminium duct tape and grounded it. That way the pipe carrys the dust and makes a safe conductor of the static charge to ground and the screws insure a good connection between the sections. The galvanized pipe was more expensive but not as much as a dust explosion followed by a fire. I found a great plumbing house that carried all kinds of galvanized fittings at a reasonable price. Safety first and always!

Home Depot sells a vacuum exhaust muffler that can fit on many shop vacuums. It’s much quieter & importantly reduces the blast coming out the top or back without ruining suction. I put one on a 45 year old Jet Vac that exhausted out the top & used to make a mess, very loud & blew into my face & blew everything off of floor joists above basement. Muffler fixed the problems.

Nice and easy adapter and setup. I love the unintended inspection window with the cup too. Rather than using a straight T though, you should consider a "wye" fitting, so the input from the table saw is headed down when it hits the fitting. More efficient and less likely too clog.

I have a diy system similar to yours but I used a metal garbage can. It works but even with a 6 h.p. shop vac the max cubic feet per minute is max 150...so you spend $85 for a 6 H.P. shop vac and for your fill barrel premade $100...I have figured I could diy something with a Harbor freight 2 h.p. 3500 cfm dust collection system and it would be even more expandable for the future. I like your vids because you are extremely creative. I am about not spending more then I have to.

New to your channel, and good stuff! The jig for the pipe taper was way cool, and saves a bunch of time fiddling with adapters, as yours can fit a variety of machines (maybe with a longer taper). I noticed that your 90 degree fittings ARE the plumbing drain type, as opposed to the tight bend fittings used in irrigation piping. Based upon my experience with dust collection setups for multiple older non-ported) tools, it is CRITICAL to minimize the number of bends, use LONG sweep 90's, or even back to back 45's to make all sweeps more gradual. A single 45 or 90 fitting has the equivalent flow restriction of MANY feet of pipe.
@joedance14
@joedance14 4 жыл бұрын
Interesting approach to making an adaptor. Thanks for that. Suggestion: there are three 90 degree turns between dust separator and shop vac - cutting that down to one might help airflow. Just turn the shop vac around and raise it a few inches - or turn the dust separator around... Best wishes.

Love the Channel Sam! Here is my tip; To close the semi-circular opening on the front of the saw to increase suction, get some sheet magnets. They are cheap. Cut two half circles in the edge of two sheet magnets the size of your saw's height adjustment arbor. Stick them over the semi-circular opening...problem solved. Easy to peel off to make adjustments, then slap them back on.

I've been looking for an easy solution to connect my WD4070 vacuum to 2" central vac PVC pipes and elbows, and what i've found is to simply use Fernco rubber couplers, the ones with steel collars at the ends. They are normally used to connect ABS pipes for plumbing. The 2" Fernco goes straight into the WD4070 inlet with a tight fit, and you can easily slip on a 2" PVC piece in the other end and tighten the collar if you want. From there, you can do whatever you want with the PVC, use a hacksaw to cut small pieces, use elbows... and use PVC cement if you would like to make permanent connections. Voilà! -No need to use a heat gun to mold PVC -No jigs to create -No pipes to taper or slim down with a tablesaw I think it really is the simplest solution. And i've spent dozens of hours looking for something easy that wouldn't require special tools. I hope this helps someone.

Thank you. This is EXACTLY the hint I WAS searching for to clean up my dust collection for my sandblast cabinet. Here's a hint of my own for anyone who wants to make an equally simple pre-filter to keep the expensive HEPA filter in the shop vac clean: I had an ancient Craftsman shop vac (about 1970) with an input and output fitting on the top. The drum was cardboard, it was that old. I plugged its hose into my female 2 1/4" ID port on the Skat Blast cabinet. Then I ran the 7' long Ridgid hose to my new shop vac. I don't like having this long hose when all I need is a 4-5' hose. Turns out there is no such thing, so that's why I am going to do as you instruct and replace this with DWV.. BTW, in use I do NOT power on the old shop vac.

This is the best solution I’ve seen on how to fit pvc to a shop vac! And believe me I’ve watched dozens of videos on it. Regarding the evolution of your system - I had my shop vac under my porch, which shares a wall with my shop, so I just had a port on the wall and a switch. Since then I’ve upgraded to a full dust separator & collector system controlled by a smart WiFi outlet, so I just have to say “Alexa turn on the dust collector” and I’m ready to catch chips 😄 I still have to manually open the blast gate on the tool I’m using, but eventually I’ll get that automated too.

I think you’re one of the best no bulls$?t diy youtubers ive ever come across. I am currently setting up a shop and only have a vac a collector and hose and have been waiting to do more to figure the best and cheapest way to do the rest(AND tripping over the hose). Thanks man.👍 You’ve got a subscriber.

Darrell Mytopher Hi Darrell, I was in the same boat tripping over hoses. My dust collector is in the center of my shop, under the workbench. So I put a 5’ long rotating arm in the joist above the collector and ran a hose from the collector up to and out along the arm. It turns through 330 degrees so I can turn the arm to any of my dust producing tools and hook the hose up. No more hoses on the floor.

EXCELLENT VIDEO AND PROCESS. Sorry for screaming but it still works and my shop is cleaner. I have added a few dust separators and dust collections hacks. However, you started me on this path of cheaper priced fitting for shop vacs from PVC fittings. Thanks for sharing and laughter is great medicine any time...

Liked the video very much. Going to check out your other videos next. Only concern, those of us with basement shops and seasonal extremes won't want to exhaust (semi-) conditioned air and pull in hot or cold air somewhere else. I do enough of that running the clothes dryer. I'd probably use old nylon hose for the last step to catch dust. Actually have two dryers, one vented outside and one vented inside with nylon hose to maintain humidity.

Great idea. I did something similar by using a sanding drum on my drill press to remove the inner material on a 45degree elbow. I think I’ll try your method soon. It seems like it will work well

To help with airflow use long sweep elbows. 90 degree drop more airflow.
