Thanks! It's come in handy, and I've been able to modify it more as I have upgraded my dust collection system - ua-cam.com/video/LNRQKBxrT-s/v-deo.html
Thank you for sharing step by step. I just realized something that is somewhat unrelated, for anyone who is interested in dust collection and cyclone buckets. I actually have two M18 Milwaukee portable round canister vacuums (not the square box vaccum) and I realized the other day that they are the only shop vacuum I've ever seen that has a cyclone effect. Shop vacuums seem to be a conspiracy because they don't use a "cyclone" air stream, so the filter instantly clogs, and all they would have to do is turn the angle of the inlet hose and it would create a cyclone of air (it would cost absolutely nothing for them to just turn that inlet fitting in the tank on a different angle). Anyway the tiny M18 vacuum creates a vicious cyclone, and you can see all the particles of dust and large pieces of debris actually spinning at high speed inside the tank, and the tank opens on the bottom with a removable trap door, so I realized you can literally just set that vacuum on top of a bucket, and have an instant dust collection vacuum that is portable and battery powered! Take a look at them, they are the M18 Milwaukee battery powered canister vacuum.
Very nice - I have watched a lot of videos on dust cart building, but this one is clear, concise and best fulfills requirements I have in my shop without going overboard. Finally I can stop looking and start building! Thank you!
Great build. I would face the vacs front where the hose goes to the cyclone facing towards the back so there are not so many bends and turns for the dust to go thru. A suggestion that I heard from another channel: he explained that if you have for example, a lot of cuts to be made on the mitersaw, to plug the vac directly into the wall. The concern being that the constant on and off may prematurely burn out the motor. He had no data to back that up though. My shop is 4 ft shorter than yours and takes some creative placement of tools to move around as I'm sure you know. Best of luck!
Thank you! I was even able to update it to accommodate a larger Dust Deputy - ua-cam.com/video/LNRQKBxrT-s/v-deo.html Best of luck with completing out your tiny workshop!
Very nicely done on this build my friend. We actually have so much in common , we may well be brothers. I truly love your shop build. It looks great. Thanks for taking the time to share this video with us. It looks like it will be perfect for the shop. I love that switch. May need to add one to my shop as well. That is handy. Thanks again for sharing and have a blessed weekend. Dale.
Thanks, Dale! I truly appreciate the kind words! I'm pleased with the automatic switch - one less step in the process is always a good thing, especially if you're having to make many cuts on the same tool .
I know I'm late to the party. But thank you for making this video. I have a small garage shop also and I appreciate your use of your limited space and tools. Claude from Atlanta 🙂
Thanks, Claude! The small space certainly makes things challenging. I've been building other workstations (videos are coming soon) to consolidate tools, make things mobile, and figure out the best workflow within the shop. Welcome to the party, and stay tuned for more!
Great and simple design 👏 made a similar tool caddie that incorporated similar concept but like most people with limited shop space floor space was at a premium so I had to give it away and still pondering ideas on how to get a design on the overhead so it’s out of the way hopefully 😊. Thanks for sharing
Thanks for the kind words! My goal with this shop is to keep things simple and upgradeable. Case in point, I've already updated this cart to accommodate a larger cyclone - ua-cam.com/video/LNRQKBxrT-s/v-deo.html
This vac cart looks so great! I have exactly the same shop vac + dust separator and this design is exactly what I'm looking for! I'm going to copy this. Thanks so much!
Thank you! I've been enjoying it. I recently got an upgrade to my dust separator and it was pretty easy to modify, too - ua-cam.com/video/LNRQKBxrT-s/v-deo.html
In this set up, the 1.875 in hose from the vacuum goes into the top the Dust Deputy, and I am using a 2.5" hose from the port there. I have since upgraded to a larger version of the Dust Deputy that has more capacity and it works even better - ua-cam.com/video/LNRQKBxrT-s/v-deo.html
HI, my goal is to build the same type of mobile set up for my garage shop. I noticed when you had the system turned on there was still saw dust from your 2x4 cut. Is this normal? I was expecting the vacuum suction to eliminate that. My expectations are probably way off.
Yes, a miter saw tends to spray sawdust all around. While the majority of the dust is directed toward the dust port, quite a bit flies in other directions. I’ve seen some folks build a hood around the saw to capture more dust but I don’t think you’ll get every bit with a miter saw. I will add a hood when I build my miter saw cart so we’ll see how it does.
I don't mind the hose. It does contract on some of my tools, so I plan ahead for that when laying it out. I'll look into the Ridgid hose. Thanks for the input!

Looks nice and simple, and easy to tweak the size for a larger vacuum.
Thanks! And yes, I have already updated it for a larger system - ua-cam.com/video/LNRQKBxrT-s/v-deo.html
Where is the fun in a dust free workshop!!
You know, I'm all about having fun. 😆
A very nice simple build. I like how you've shown how to make it custom for different shop vacs
Thanks! It's come in handy, and I've been able to modify it more as I have upgraded my dust collection system - ua-cam.com/video/LNRQKBxrT-s/v-deo.html
Love your built and your trick with the chain for the circle ;) Genius
Thanks!

This is genious! I need to make my husband one for Father’s Day!!!
Thanks! Feel free to reach out with any questions.
Great design for smaller vac’s and tiny workshops! I’ building a 10x14 shop now.

Many thanks for putting this out there. I used a lot of your ideas in my own vacuum cart.
I'm glad it was helpful! Stay tuned for more - I've got some upgrades coming for mine. Thanks for watching!
I need one of these too, my garage is a mess!
This is a must-have in a wood shop. I've got some improvements coming for it, so stay tuned!

@@MakeitGoode1 yeah I have seen it. I’ll stay with my current dust deputy unless someone will give me a new one for free. 😂
Nice work!
Thank you! I have since upgraded this to a newer system. Check it out if you're interested! ua-cam.com/video/LNRQKBxrT-s/v-deo.html
Good deal thx for sharing and the info
Thanks! I'm glad it's helpful!
Nice work
Thank you, sir!
Very Nice
Thank you!
Very nice
Thank you!
Are you running a 2.5in hose off the vac directly? If so, howd you do that, cause i cant stand using the 1-7/8thin hose

I'd throw that stretch hose out a 3rd story window and get the 10ft pro hose from ridgid (just the hose not the junk car cleaning kit)
I don't mind the hose. It does contract on some of my tools, so I plan ahead for that when laying it out. I'll look into the Ridgid hose. Thanks for the input!
