Cool, I like the clear top with cross supports.

The two main points I took away from the paper are: 1) a three-vaned device provides the most improvement (think peace-sign-shaped cross section) and 2) a short device is quite effective (in other words, the device doesn't have to extend very far into the outlet duct).

Took me a lot of reading threads to find this tidbit.  After looking at all the tube type straighteners I thought there had to be an easier/better way.  Of course this article did not test the full small tube type, but i believe I will attempt my build with the 3-vane device, and also with a "streamlined entry".

Hi my name's Dan, I make sawdust.  Not much else, just the dust :)  Just picked up the HF 2HP DC and looking to add on the separator.

Thanks for all the great ideas and plans.
