This video is THREE of THREE parts: Part One: Building the Boom Arm ua-cam.com/video/WB_h2hzX320/v-deo.html Part Two: Hookup Up A Cyclone Dust Separator ua-cam.com/video/gSw_GtlJvIY/v-deo.htmlsi=-J4zd1YQnIrsKUqM Part Three: This video :)
Thank you for that video. I am planning new woodworking shop and want to include the cyclone system to my plans. I love you down to earth funny delivery
Ive been using my cyclone for about two weeks since filming this video, andddd let me tell ya; my test was setup for failure. During normal everyday use the big bucket collects 97% of the dust, the baby cyclone is empty. I overloaded the cyclone when I sucked that much up that quickly 🤷♀️
Thank you. One step closer to realizing my dream of not spending three hours after every project vacuuming up sawdust and debris. I have a cyclone, but miter saws - especially compound miters - are notorious for sending the dust flying
Ive come across a box you can build atound your fence to help the vacuum grab the saw dust, from the videos Ive seen, its very effective. Check it out!! www.reddit.com/r/woodworking/s/KrA01L2TzC
Great follow up to the cyclone build video. Thanks for the warning on fire hazards too, definitely not covered by others setting up dust collection systems.

Great video. When talking about pressure vs cfm, you should show a fan curve it is a lot easier to show someone. When changing pipe sizes there is a critical speed when the debris will fall out the air stream, if the speed is too fast the particles collide and fall out, if it is too slow, gravity will cause the particles to fall out.
Really great information for us weekend warriors and hobbyists. Very much appreciated. I started with a shop vacuum (Ridgid 6-gal) and the Dustopper. I bought a airflow meter to test things out. Straight out of the vacuum, I got 180 cfm. Coming out of the Dustopper (or in, as the case may be), I was getting about 100 cfm. At the end of the hose (that came with the vacuum), I got about 80 cfm. With that in mind, I'd be curious what kind of airflow you get at the end of a hose with the sophisticated cyclone system in between the vacuum and the hose. One advantage you have on your table saw is that it's just a tube coming off the blade. I have the Ridgid R4512 table saw that has a large cabinet between the blade and the vacuum connection. The 80 cfm was woefully inadequate. I have since added the Dust Right 750 mobile dust collector from Rockler (before they added $250 to the price) and it works quite well with my table saw and router table dust box. I still use the shop vacuum with the Dustopper for my sander and it works great. It's important for any woodworker just starting out, that ANYTHING you can do to minimize dust is better than nothing.
In your video demonstration, your baby cyclone seems to fill up very quickly. Have you used it under typical workshop conditions yet? How often do you need to empty it?

I just wanted to let you know, you have a new follower and he thinks your the best, besides me that is, he wanted to say hi and would like to talk to you his name is Christopher, 9 years old, I am Mark his dad and been watching you a long time, I just need to know how to get better 45s on my planter boxes, I did watch your video but didn't work, got anything else, thanks
Hey Christopher! Hope your dads showin you all the good tricks in the shop ;) as for the 45 angles, you can cut them out, put them together like its a picture frame and shoot a nail in from the side to keep everything together, otherwise I give mine a good squeeze before nailing them to the top of the planter. Thanks for the comment! Enjoy your day
I saw this one first, but I'm going to go back and watch the other two. One quick question, regarding the PVC you say "install street elbows", but wouldn't it be better to install the sweeping elbows for a longer gentler curve? PS. Great voice! PPS. Liked and subscribed.
Thank you for all the useful information, I have subscribed! Do you have details on how you are collecting particles from miter saw? It’s a huge problem, how did you connect a hose? Again thank you!

I have COPD. I have to wear a mask when I work. I do a lot of work with cedar and the dust is dangerous for anyone. I found a respirator with a hose that goes to a filtered fan. There is always clean air coming into my mask.
What brand do you use? It sounds like a nice respirator. I have the RZ one and my dual filter one which do okay. Now that I can hook my sander to my vacuum it has helped calm down my sinuses
Bottom line is you need both a shop vac and a big 4 inch dust collector and after you watch a bunch of video's on this that will be the conclusion you come to.

Thank you. I feel that most dust collection videos are not aimed at small, hobbyist shops - but that yours is. Thank you for sharing.
Thanks buddy :) so far Im lovin it!

Great informative video. Thanks for doing the research for me. Now I know exactly what to do to have an efficient system.

An air flow meter would be cool to see what my system is pulling! Thanks for the info :)
Great video and very informative... keep them coming
Thanks Patrick :)
Thanks. Very good summary.
Thanks buddy :)
Very knowledgeable for such a young man. Thank you for sharing your skills and knowledge.. Have a blessedday! (SA, TX.)
Thanks buddy :)
Very informative. Thank you
Thanks buddy :)
Great information.
Thanks Mark!
Great video!!! 👍💯🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

Totally meant sweep if I said street. Opps :P thanks for lettin me know :)
Have you ever tried a pool filter cover for your shop vac ?
I havent, but quite a few have been suggesting it; I might have to give one a try :)
Thank you for all the useful information, I have subscribed! Do you have details on how you are collecting particles from miter saw? It’s a huge problem, how did you connect a hose? Again thank you!
I found a box that builds around the back and uses a vacuum to to collect the dust, I have not tackled that build yet, but they seem to work the best
At 3:58 .. I did “subcibe”! 😂
C’mon, you knew someone was gonna. 🤷♂️
Ooooooooooooooo, maybe spelling it upside down cause my camera rig was in the way was a poor choice 🤣🤣🤣 nice catch, got an LOL out of me
Good video! Looks like the small clear section of your cyclone fills up really fast? Will you be changing that out to a bucket of sorts?

I just noticed you need more tape measures 😂
A few more wouldnt hurt! You'll only see me reach for the bottom left four, i dont care for the shorter ones. Lol

1st view.... 1st comment!!!!?
Whoaaa!! ;) lol good job ;)
@@WhosTheVoss thanks! I want to thank my family and friends! They always believed I could accomplish something
Makin a video about fire safety while standing inside a room with walls covered in firewood
Yup, its a woodshop 🤣🤣
@@WhosTheVoss There is no known fire in a small workshop due to dust collection systems. Only in large industrial systems can fire hazard exist.
Dust collection sucks
Fingers crossed 🤞
