Frankenvac 2.0

This is the 2nd version of my self built shop vacuum. The first version worked by putting a vacuum blower on top of a Mini cyclone separator. This worked well but it had a few things that I wanted to improve. One thing I wanted was an easier way to empty the dust when the dust bin was full. In the new version, I made a box under the separator that the dust will fall into. On the side of this box is a door that I can use to suck out all of the dust with my shop’s main vacuum system. The other big improvement that I made was to put everything on the front of a main housing of the vacuum so the switch, the exhaust, and the handle are all on that front side. This allows the vacuum to fit within my storage system at the south end of the shop so the vacuum has a place to go when not in used. I also built this new version out of nice Baltic Birch and tried to clean up the design so that the whole system didn't look so hacked together.
