Phil,

I have a small 3hp cman vac. I have the lid form the rockler link attached to a 5gal bucket with a bit of weather stripping on the inside of the lid to try and seal it up.

I don't get any debris in the vac but it does gets full of fines. Overall it sort of does the job but not very well. I empty the bucket and vac when I think about it. I cant say as I notice any difference wether its empty or half full. The filter I use is the one below the hepa as they didnt have any hepa filters when I bought the vac. The filter gets caked with fines and is a pita to clean.

How do I go about getting the info to build one like yours? I'd rather pay you the cash than some company.

This looks good so far and I'm interested in it.

At the moment I run a shop vac with a separator lid on top of a 5 gal bucket. It's not bad but I'm sure it could be better.
