I got my electrical done today so that my CV is now hot. Getting close!
I also bought a 30 gallon steel garbage can today to make a dust collection drum like the CV instructions recommend. Of course a 33 gallon poly draw-string garbage bag fits it perfectly inside the can with room to drape the edges over the outside of the drum (held there by the can top in operation).
I have seen people in the photo Gallery putting a steel wire frame inside their can to keep the poly bags in place while filling/operating. But why wouldn't some rocks or such in the bottom of the bag keep it in place while it is filling? I must be missing something. Putting some scrape wood or rocks to weight down the bag while it is filling and then throwing the weight away with the rest of the dust would keep from pulling something out of the full bag and making a mess, wouldn't it? Maybe I am missing something, so please set me straight with your experience.
Thanks,
Ed
