So my dust collector needed a permenant home. I saw what DIY Tyler did with his collector and decided to modify is setup slightly so that it would fit in my shop. Definitely pleased with the outcome of this project. Let me know if you have any comments, quesitons or suggestions!

You wanted comments and suggestions. Here is one. If you remove the 5 to 4 inch adapter from the collector housing and run a 5 inch hose to your drum, you will leave behind more dust in the drum. The reason for that is: a 5 inch hose can move twice as much air at the same pressure, meaning the velocity of air will be lower on the output side of your drum, thereby allowing smaller particles to drop out of the air stream. This makes your set up more efficient and also keeps your filter cleaner longer. All you need to do is replace one of your 4 inch hose connections on the drum lid to a 5 inch one and use 5 inch flex hose to the collector housing. Easy.

Looks great... one comment though; No need to have the bag take up that much space as it won't be taking much material...think about rolling it up and clipping it.

Hi there. This is the first of your videos that I have seen and I thoroughly enjoyed it. If you would permit me some positive critique though, not everybody's hearing is still 100% and I find that the music volume is just a tad high after adjusting volume for the speech. Please don't see this as criticism though. I know that everybody is different and this is how it is for me but the rest of the video was very informative and as stated I really enjoyed it. Keep it coming mate. Thanks.

Nice build, and a nicely done video! The impeller appeared to come right off, with no problems. Is that accurate? Some folks apparently find that the impeller is “stuck” on the shaft and have a terrible time getting it out. Or was there anything in particular to get it out?

I'm surprised the bolts didn't line up. I was able to rotate my blower housing 90 degrees without drilling any holes, that is, the volt holes line up

How did you attach the main filter/bag assembly to the 2x4 bracket support? I don't see screws, but I can't imagine it would be sturdy just resting on the 2x4s.

Nice modification. What's the "Y" for on the input side? The one that the chip collector is attached to. Is it capped? Also, will you have remote switching?
@mclartywoodworks6690
@mclartywoodworks6690 7 жыл бұрын
Thanks Carl. The Y came with the dust collector. I assume it's so you can have another hose connected at the same time. It does come with a cap. I have thought about have a remote switch, just haven't pulled the plug yet.

Hey Jeff. Nope. The wall is insulated well enough and that wall backs up to the kitchen. I was surprised that I didn't see any vibration and could barely hear it through the wall.

When you repositioned the output housing how did you know where to drill new holes for reattaching it to the motor?
@mclartywoodworks6690
@mclartywoodworks6690 7 жыл бұрын
Hey Chris. I pulled the housing off and tested to see if the holes were the same position if I flipped the housing. Turns out they were pretty close. So I guess-timated and was right the first time.

I just did that same modification on a brand new, never used Harbor Freight dust collector, and I had to use a gear puller. There was no way it was coming out of there without it. For some reason I thought the fact it was new would help, but it was really tough to pull out still. I used a rather big two-prong gear puller. I would go for a three prong, smaller (3-4 inches) gear puller if I were you. Good luck!

I was thinking of doing the exact sam thing with a dust collector motor. Haven’t yet but worried that the internal bearings might fail in that position because the load on them shifted from being horizontal to vertical. How has it operated for you?

I'm pretty sure the bearings on that model dust collector are faulty before they leave the factory! I own one and it's sounded like it's about to seize up and die since day one. Still works though!

What kind of suction do you have at your miter saw. Thank you for your time
@mclartywoodworks6690
@mclartywoodworks6690 3 жыл бұрын
The suction at the miter saw was ok. I had several 90 degree drops and blast gates, so I'm sure that affected the suction. Honestly, I've not seen a single woodworker that is totally happy with their miter saw dust collection. I've thought about just moving to a dust extractor that is solely for the miter saw. It might do a better job.

It's a .5 micro filter. It helps take some of the fine particles out of the air. Very helpful and also helps increase CFM.
