Hi All,
Thanks for all of your input. I'm going to trash (pun) the trash can lid collector/baffle I originally made, and which fails missrably.
I am using a Harbor Freight 2HP unit with a secondary plastic bag and Wynn filter.

In that light, I am planning a flat bid and top hat design that does not extend into my 30 gal metal trash can. About 28" diameter.
I am planing a roughly 12.5" high collector. it will again have 5" lead in and out metal ducting. I found a diagonal 6.25 X 6.25 inlet to put by the slot. It will direct the intakes dust against the smooth sides of the collector.

Anyone want to make a sketch for me to follow????

Do you think 2" between the bottom of inlet and the baffle is enough clearence?
How deep(long) should I make the secondary pick up? In other words clearance from the top of the baffle?
Your advice is most valued and appreciated.
Jeff
