You don’t seem to understand what these collectors are designed to collect. Hint, small particulint is not it and you proved it. These are made to take out larger particles. So much work, so much waste of food.
Exactly this. These devices are designed to mitigate *some* fine dust, but their main job is to separate larger particulate like wood chips and planer shavings. They’re not designed to be efficient with fine dust, they’re just too big and crudely designed to deal with stuff like flour. This is a really poor demonstration to actually determine the effectiveness and “should you buy it” rating.
this was probably the most non-scientific testing that I have seen. If you want to avoid a main clogged filter, use disposable dust bags inside of the vacuums. You may want to repeat the test and not fill each dust collector to full capacity. You are seeing overflow 'dust' going to the vacuum. Those results may be more realistic with the proper use of each product.
Keep in mind that the items you were testing are to collect large wood shavings, not necessarily fine particulates like flour. That is because the larger particles can clog the intake of the vacuum and rob it of incoming air. I know it has happened to me while using my thickness planer. I was actually surprised they trapped as much flour as they did. Which probably means the vacuums got all the ultrafine flour particles. Also, yes flour can combust, just look for silo's exploding on the internet, they all had a grain of some type and it was the fine particles that caused the explosion (same with sawdust). The first big flour explosion took out an 8 story building. I would invest in a spark arrester for the hoses where the charge is building.

There used to be a time when looked forward to new videos every day. That was about when you guys did the foundation, walls and timber frame. Haven’t seen a video in almost a year.
flour dust is highly explosive. If you see a grain elevator, each bin is a potential huge stick of dynamite. Don't worry the major cause of these fires are static discharge.
This feels wrong on so many levels. First: waste of food. Second: risking dust explosion. Third: product placement / unmarked advertising? Not sure about the last one.
I thought the reason for the added separators was to cull out the larger pieces. seems you started out with ALL FINES thus defeating the purpose of the unit. Did you really need 3 new vacuums or would it have been the same if you used 1 vacuum and 3 new filters? A little more cost conscious.
I thought the idea of these cyclones is that they collect the larger chips and allow the fine dust to go to the vac. It seems like these are collecting the fine flour dust in the cyclone. And yes, flour dust is explosive.
Surely there must be a better way of wasting time and money !!! Obviously you've got a surplus of both !! Looks like UA-cam is paying you way too much for this garbage content.
Do not know why you chose to use flour. Flour will a here or stick to anyting. It's always been very hard to clean up. But these machines weren't meant for cooking flour. You're not working in a bakery. The machines you're working on are mostly used for work shops. I don't feel as though your experiment proved anything. Could you explain why you chose to use the flour.
Well I guess the fun of watching the house build and progress is over, we are reduced to no progress and flour so you will loose me as a subscriber and guess many previous followers think the same.
Buys expensive dust extractor takes it out side and blows filter out with compressed air and no dust mask. Might as well just skip the stage of buying the extractor
Sorry - if you were trying to show that the cyclone separators were efficient at keeping your filters clean from sawdust in a woodworking environment, this was a total fail. Flour does not equal to saw chops nor saw dust.
But why???? Next time you feel like wasting time and alot of Money.... just write me a check. I'll happily waste your money on something more video worthy
My understanding is that cyclone dust collection is meant to separate the bigger heavier bits of wood shavings and allow them to drop in the bucket and the finer dust, like flour, would pass through so I’m not entirely sure you conducted a proper test.
I think it's official, they have jumped the shark. You didn't test anything. You don't follow the instructions then talk down about the product. He does this all the time. Blames the tool or company cause he doesn't read or know how to use something.
I purchased a Dustopper prior to watching this video. Before I used it, I changed the filter on my Rigid shop vacuum and cleaned it out. This is hooked up to my table saw and proceeded to cut some scrap lumber. After about 25 cuts to a 2x4, I took the top off of the vacuum. Nothing in there. I removed the Dustopper from the 5 gallon bucket and there is a nice pile of sawdust. It works like a charm!
Don't ignore your youtube friends. Won't be the same without them. House sideing idea stucco with rock paste. It is fireproof. Do you know where to get rocks?
I'm pretty sure these devices are designed more for wood dust not the finer powder. I use a Duststopper on a Rigid vacuum to collect dust from my chop and table saws and it filters out probably 99%. It's the $40 I've spent.

Jessie, flour is very explosive, the grain silos don`t explode for no reason, static electricity sets it off. To do this experiment, run a ground wire to the vacum hose hose and earth ground, that way static electricity charges don`t build up.
Flour is VERY Explosive and you have way too much time on your hands. Maybe you could get back to the building and finishing your home, instead of playing games and spending money.
Tons of UA-cam videos on dust collection systems. Sorry to see a total waste of lots and lots of flour. Wouldn’t use any of these collectors after watching this video.
Remember the beautiful inspirational post and beam they visited prior to raising their timber frame? Whatever happened to that plan? I think they're done. They should just subcontract out the rest of the build. It's beginning to look like gypsies live there.
Chief…You got it all wrong. This was such an unethical and useless waste of food and does NOT demonstrate what these cyclonic separators are supposed to do. All the brands are already thoroughly tested and DO perform from average to great
When are you going to get back to the meat of your site, building a house, this was a total waste of time, I only made one minute into it before I scrolled to the end.
Flour was the wrong medium to test. You also unrealistically chugged to much, no cyclone could handle what you just did. The cyclone was so full it lost it's ability to be a cyclone. I can work in my shop cutting wood all day with my Dust Deputy and have a clean shop vacuum at the end of the day (Providing I don't over fill the bucket).
Sorry Jessie, But you couldn't have picked a more explosive substances. History has shown that flour mills have literally blown up from static electricity from the flour and the dust in the air being the fuel. That's also why grain storage towers sometime explode.
Recommendations: 1) start with an amount of material that is uniform and less than the capacity of the buckets. 2) use a material that is representative of the use case. 3) use a scale to measure the amount of material that winds up in the bucket. I think you'll find that they're all very effective for material that isn't a fine powder. I expect that only those who sand a lot of drywall and a few other less common things would have the same issues you had. If you'd stuck to sawdust and typical shop detritus, you'd have found all three to work well. In my experience, the things that matter on these are price, size and tippiness. The Dust Deputy loses out of hand because of the height, in my criteria. I rigged a frame to mount my bucket above my Rigid vacuum. The DD just makes it ridiculously tippy. The Dust Right's bucket is too big and the hose connections make the hoses stick up. The Dustopper is relatively inexpensive and works well when mounted atop a vacuum. If you don't move them around and you have the space, any of the three will work great. I have a Dustopper under the workbench behind my table saw. The Dust Deputy and Dust Right wouldn't fit down there but might for your use case. There may be a performance difference between the three, but if there is, it's not enough to matter. I have a big Dust Deputy on my dust collector, and I occasionally have to empty the small overflow bag, but not enough for it to be a problem. In the years I've owned Dustoppers, I can only recall one occasion when I checked the vac and saw enough dust to even consider emptying the vac (about a handful). I have not bought a filter for my rigids since starting to use the Dustoppers.

Hope your insurance is up to date .Flour suspended in air plus static electricity is a perfect recipe for an explosion

How hard is it to get the electrical pulled? Wasting time demonstrating why dust collectors exist.
You do realise that flower is highly flammable when it's dispersed in the air. And also that static is perfect way to light it.

Actually flour is explosive, and it's a serious problem in big plants. 70% of powdery materials used in industry are flammable-explosive.

Dust and static is actually kinda dangerous btw.
Flour is explosive when airborne and can be pretty dangerous in large quantities in a dust cloud.

Yes... You WAY overfilled those dust collectors. Yes... That made this test completely invalid. You're better than this.

There may be a performance difference between the three, but if there is, it's not enough to matter.

I have not bought a filter for my rigids since starting to use the Dustoppers.
