Ron, If you can use some of the shrink stuff I'll send you a couple hundred feet of it. The fine wire wheel just happened to be on the grinder one day and I was surprised and delighted at the results - somewhat like I knew what I was doing. Jere
enjoyed the video, similar to your shrink plastic, I use saran wrap to protect my lens…works great! Thanks for the channel shout out…video soon on the hands free arm….
Joel, many years of refinements reduced to three videos. I would have liked to be privy to this info at one time. It would have saved me a lot of time. Jere
I just put the comment in the last video as well but I see you are one step ahead off me! I used stainless wire mesh of the screen protector and this has worked well for three years - you just need a half inch gap - its kind of fit and forget, I got fed up of changing the plastic screens - but you do have the top door version which makes it easier! Thanks for the tips !!!
@@jerekirkpatrick2092 Yes and seal it all up with silicone to stop the dust getting in there - I made a plywood frame out of 1/2 inch and then sealed it together I’ve hit it hard accidentally a few times but it still works - but I will use the white paint and flaring the glove holders! Keep them coming chum!
Jerry, I am not familiar with the dust collector shown in the stills at the end of the video. If you get a lot of dust into the canister of your vacuum, you should seriously look into the Harbor Freight Cyclonic Duct Collector. I have a Chinese version and it is made of harder plastic than the Harbor Freight unit. I actually own both and have not set up the HF unit yet but it is the identical style. I may have told you I had tired a couple different DIY collectors shown on earlier youtube videos (did mine 5 years ago) and I actually had my vacuum motor catch fire from all the dust particles. That is when I looked into the cyclonic units. Amazing results. I barely have to maintain my vacuum and it does require inspection but the dust and grit is in the cyclonic canister. The vacuum filter needs air blown through it in reverse once in a while. The HF unit comes with all the parts needed to add to your 5 gallon bucket. For $40.00 I know you could make one out of sheet metal, something I started to do until my MIG welder from Eastwood crapped out and Eastwood would not stand behind it. So much for purchasing anything from the Blue Chinese Tool Co. The design is just a cone with an inlet and outlet for the vacuum and a hole in the bottom to mount to the lid of a plastic bucket. Also it would be a great project for viewers.
I have been using the Home Depot topper on my main shop vacuum for several years and have been quite happy with it. That is why I used the same unit for the bead blaster. Jere
Jere, using the shrink wrap material is pure genius, and I love the bright finish you get from the fine wire brush. Great tips!

Colin, I tried the screen one time and didn't get a good result. I think the 1/2" distance may have been the difference.
