This taking from I've watched from Stumpy Nubs and adding the power of the Cyclone from Oneida. The one difference is that you leave the dust bag as is where Stumpy Nubs cuts his bag and dumps it into a five gallon pail with a trash bag. Although with the cyclone you are going to get far less debris in the bag requiring less replacements. Just the same, I like his idea as the heavy duty bag will break down over time from removing the metal clamp that keeps it in place. That simple modification to yours would prevent the you from ever needing to replace the heavy duty plastic bag. I am picking up the Harbor Freight Dust Collector next weekend, and I plan to do a combination of what you have here with the modifications Stumpy Nubs did. Thanks for sharing. This was an excellent contribution.

Hey, being a Dutchman myself, I love your sweatshirt. I did something similar with a HarborFreight dust collector. The on/off switch will wear out quickly and more specific to replace. Wire your dust collector through a common wall switch in a more accessible area and leave the motor switch on. A proactive problem elimination.

I haven't done this myself yet but a friend helped a guy put copper wire inside his plastic dust collector system. The claim is static discharge can cause a fire within the pipe. I did notice static in my piping so it's on my radar to add grounding wires. Nice build thanks for posting.

This was a great instructional. I used it to convert my single stage Grizzly dust collector into a two stage system. I made 3 key alterations though. 1. My air filter is mounted on top of the out flow and the bag below the outflow. I also used a paddle air filter that you can hand crank the paddle which flaps internal paddles against the air filter knocking dust out. 2. When I used a rubber trash can the air suction was so great it crumpled the can causing the upper seal to be breached. I upgraded to a metal can for a more rigid structure to with stand against suction implosion. 3. Once I upgraded to a metal can the wood feet used to hold up the can no longer worked well because the rubber can could flex a bit into its upper lid - the metal can wouldn't and kept falling when trying to put the feet in place. As well, the upper lip of the metal can being much more rigid caused some air gaps. To make it mount with a good seal I used toggle/pull latch clamps - the latch/levers attached to the can and the catch/clamp part is attached to the outer edge of the upper wood lid. I use 4 of them equal distance around the lid and it pulls the can up nice and tight.

The Harbor Freight 2 HP unit already separates dust. That is why the bag is in on the top - so dust falls into the bottom after the integrated cyclone separator. There is even a divider between the two halves and it spins the air under the separator.

Thanks for this. You were the initial inspiration to make my own cyclone setup. I went with a 2hp Shop Fox blower, Oneida SDD, and Wynn filter. But Dick Wynn recommended the Gamma seal lid approach to make a threaded filter attachment, and I did that. Mounted to a custom plenum out of Baltic birch. I kept hesitating, drowning in dust, because the space is so restricted. Garage door and track on one side, lumber rack on the other, and the electrical panel right in the middle.

Want to thank you for this unique set up. I’m so glad I found this. It should serve to solve my space limitation problem. I also took a look at Jeremy's set up on Guy's Woodshop who is also inspiring me. I'm surprised we don't see the filter installed like you did, more often, since in your configuration the filter does not have to be above a standard ceiling height and there's a straight connection between the blower and the Dust Deputy and the blower and the impeller. This seems like a more efficiently designed set up. I’ll hang the impeller by turning the support legs upwards and mounting them on the ceiling, but I’ll have to have someone shorten the legs and weld the mounting plates back on. I’ll mount the blower and impeller as high as possible so the run from the Dust Deputy can be as high to the ceiling as possible also. What I’d like to know is, can’t the lid on top of the impeller be a simple thin piece of plywood just caulked in place if I’m supporting the impeller with the included legs? And would you have designed the attachment of the filter to the impeller any other way, now that you have been using the system? Thanks for your ingenuity and expertise. - Jake

Personally, to collect the finner particules I would make a spiral with pipe elbows at the end of the sucking pipe so that a second centrifugal filtering would happen at high flow velocity with a tight radius ( Gforce= V/Rsquare) . This way the dust would go down the spiral back in the bucket and the air would go up. This spiral would be inside the bigger bucket so a lot of space would be saved.

Hi Tyler. I'm going to upgrade my own dust collecting system , and the cyclone is lying around some place waiting. I think You and some other people makes great instructive vid's . And they all are going at it more or less the same way. It seems that You all think out the construction as You go. This means that You crawl around the system, gluing upwards, screw in impossible positions etc. I only ask: Why do You not assemble the parts fully on the working bench where You are able to turn the parts around to obtain a optimal workingposition, and then hang up the assembly on the wall? Your system is state of the art, but You learned me that I will assemble the different parts and then hang it to the wall. Yet another idea I got looking on Your work: I thing I will use some vibration cussions for the motorunit, cause I think that the whole wall will sing when You turn on the blower, and maybe some incapsulation of the unit with noise damping plates, i have seen some woodworkers do that. This not a critic, as I wrote, it is a very nice video, and I like Your children toddling around in Your shop

Any issues mounting the blower motor oriented differently than manufacturer intended? Bearings getting warped or over heating?? Great video

I see you used a step down between the SDD and blower .. did you consider avoiding the step-down by replacing the blower cover with plywood and 6" take-off? That seems like it should increase airflow. Great build and video.

3 questions here: I bought 1hp dust collector for my table saw, planer, etc. I will make a cyclone for it. 1. Does it change anything if I make the plastic and filter bags a lot smaller? 2. How big should be the cyclone? 3. Is it better to use only 4 inches hoses for the cyclone and the dust collector?

Making the filter bag smaller will restrict your airflow out of the blower so you really want this to be as big as possible. For a 1HP blower you will want to go with the SDD, same that I used. (aff link goo.gl/HMYWfs) 4" is what you want for a DC, 2.5 is much to small.
