What is convenient for such a dust collector? First of all, the absence of bags, a large volume of the garbage collection container, garbage from the container is easily removed. In the manufacture of the dust bag, the Master was limited in size.
Tools and materials:
-Sheet metal;
-Plastic bucket;
-Plywood;
-Wheels;
-Fasteners;
-Glue;
-Silicone;
-Polyurethane coating;
-Vacuum cleaner;
-Drill;
-A circular saw;
-Sander;
-Dremel;
- Clamps;
-Miter saw;
-Disc grinding machine;
-Bandsaw machine;
-Nailing gun;
-File;
-Ushm;
Step One: Top Cover and Rim
From plywood cuts a circle. The outer side of the circle is 33 cm in diameter, the outer 27 cm. The inner circle, part of it will be useful in the future, the master cut with a band saw and after cutting there was a cut. The master inserted a wooden piece into the cut, glued the place of the cut and polished it. This will be the rim of the bottom.
Step Two: Bottom
Cut a plywood circle along the diameter of a plastic bucket. Lays the rim on the circle from the previous step. Encircles him. Inside draws another circle with a diameter of 23 cm. Divides the circle into three parts and cuts 2 \ 3. Glues the bottom with the rim.
Step Three: Metal Cylinder
From galvanized metal cuts a strip of 16 cm wide. Twists the cylinder along the inner diameter of the rim. Marks and cuts the strip along the length. Fastens the cylinder with self-tapping screws.
Step Four: Top Cover
For the top cover, the master uses the circle cut out in step one. Screws the ruler to the cover, it will rest on the shoulder of the cylinder and prevent the cover from falling inward. Installs the cover. Tightens the cylinder with a clamp. Tightens.
In the center of the cover, a hole is drilled along the diameter of the hoses of the vacuum cleaner.
Step Five: Suction Port
Now you need to make a casing to which the suction hose will be connected. The port consists of five parts. Makes the top of the casing. It will fit at an angle to the top of the cylinder.
Glues the side and bottom.
Cuts the part to which the port will be attached. In detail, makes a selection, as in the photo. Glues the part to the port.
Cuts and glues the front of the port.In front of it cuts a hole along the diameter of the pipe of the vacuum cleaner. Processes edges with a milling cutter. Grinds.
Step Six: Install a Port
Cut a hole in a metal cylinder.
Apply silicone to the parts to be connected and screw the port onto the dust collector.
Seventh step: coating
Covers all wooden parts with polyurethane varnish.
Step Eight: Testing
After assembling the dust collector, install it on a plastic container, connect the hoses of the vacuum cleaner and conduct testing of its operation. The master was satisfied with the dust collector and moved on to the next step.
Step Nine: Platform Details
For compactness, a vacuum cleaner with a dust bag will be placed on a platform with wheels. Provides parts for the platform.
Step Ten: Build the Platform
Assembles a platform. The parts are fixed with glue and nails.
Step Eleven: Installing a Vacuum Cleaner
Removes wheels from a vacuum cleaner. Installs a vacuum cleaner on the platform and marks the holes from the wheels. Drills a hole in the platform. Installs wooden dowels. Installs a vacuum cleaner on the dowels.
Screws on the bottom of the wheel platform.
Grinds and covers the platform.
The dust bag is ready.
