    So cool seeing this moving from the original wood versions into improvement after improvement.
    Printing it and ordering the parts.
    I am looking into an alternative for the festool boxes as the cheapest i can find is around 200EUR for the 3 bins.
    Ill let you know if i find a nice enough solution.
    I am also wondering what you use as 'stofzuiger' 🙂,
    looking into a proper sized impeller and some filters DIY solution.
    Could you share what you use?
    Thx Piet

    I would recommend a small ledge under the bins, so that if you are not holding them securely after unlocking, you don’t spill the content everywhere. Most of the time it is not required, but when it happens, best to have a safeguard in my opinion.

    For future revisions, consider precise drilling of clearance holes for Rampa-type threaded inserts to screw non-carriage bolts into the base plate rather than carriage bolts (at least as an option). Carriage bolts referenced to plastic are much less reliable, and if any strip problematic to service. The inserts are mildly more expensive but bolts are cheaper and they will be more secure.

    @tavarisjones551 2 месяца назад +1

    Love what you've done here. One possible suggestion. Seems like when you remove the festool dust bin, that you would get a face full of dust. However the hole from the separator leading to the bin is quite small. Seems like you could have a lid on the waste bin that just has a big enough hole for dust to fall into. This would greatly reduce the dust escaping when you have to remove a bin.

    • @CapturingDust
      @CapturingDust  2 месяца назад

      I use a CamVac after the separator so my separator runs on a vacuum. I don't think dust will blown out when changing the bins in my case, even when the system is still running.

    Excellent design work Ruud. I've built a few different cyclonic (and Thien baffle) systems over the years, but never one of this style. With garage ceilings being so much lower in the UK (vs the US) many of the cyclone models are too tall; so this centrifugal design is ideal.

    Looking forward to seeing this progress with each new video. I'm still stuck in analysis paralysis about whether to do it with my 3hp HVLP or my 2kw camvac. I have a plan to dismantle that, make a new frame and add a third motor (they are just numatic vac motors) to make my own 3kw one. Second issue is where I put it!

    • @CapturingDust
      @CapturingDust  2 месяца назад

      I also breading on a idea to intergrade numatic vac motors into the design. Not yet figured out the details. I do not have a 3 motor CamVac, although I would like to test it to see if it will make some difference. 1 motor is definitely not enough. I tested the PCV version with very short length of flex hose between the planer, separator, and CamVac. I cut the 2 meter flex hose in two for that. So I think you need more power when you add tube length to the total system.

    • @MrDBT85
      @MrDBT85 2 месяца назад

      @CapturingDust yes, hose length will affect airflow but it is less of an issue with HPLV motors like those on a cam vac. I believe Dennis from Hooked on wood runs 3 motors and can vary between them as for example, you don't want 3 when sanding.

    This is great work, and you making the files available for free is awesome. Thank you!! I have a few questions though, and I hope you can help me with the answers.
    1. Can I make the acrylic tube longer? You have it at 500mm, what if I double the length to 1000mm? Will it allow the fine dust more time/distance to spiral to the outer edges? I will be hooking it up to a 3hp dust collector.
    2. Can I use 1 container to collect both the coarse and fine dust? Where I am, it is expensive to get the Festool containers that you used. I am instead thinking of using a 65L Ikea Samla container that will be big enough to collect the dust from both ports. Is there a reason that 1 container is not used to collect both coarse and fines?
    Thanks for any advice you can give me.

    • @CapturingDust
      @CapturingDust  Месяц назад

      The impact of making the tube longer is a difficult question. There will be a optimum depending on the blower type. But only I did not figure out the formula for that to predict its performance. That would be trail and error.
      2 stages on one container will not work because the air will travel the way of less resistance. Dust will go out trough the outlet not in the bin or will circulate in the bin.
      Hope that answers your questions!

    • @discom69
      @discom69 Месяц назад

      @CapturingDust thanks for taking the time to answer. I will definitely go with a 2 bin system. As for the length, I have already got my 500mm tubes and will build that first. Will then do the 1000mm tubes and will let you know if there is a difference.

    This is really amazing how this project innovation went from wood to an update to another update ! and now this ! amazing work !!!!
    Quick question , if I want to use only 1 tube I saw you mention that it should be tube of 8 inch , from your perspective should it be as efficient ?

    • @CapturingDust
      @CapturingDust  2 месяца назад

      I have a feeling that it will be very close as two 6 inch tubes. Don’t know for sure, I really like to test that when I have more time.
      Harvey uses 2 tubes of 8 inch on a single inlet of 6 inches (or a Y-piece of two times 4 inch that they put in front of the inlet side as a option). I tested with a single 4 inch inlet and two tubes of 6 inches.
      So if you run a 4 inch inlet than I think it would be pretty close.

    Just an idea, you could use door “D” weatherstripping in a pocket instead of the tape. I have a feeling the tape life will not be long.
    Also, what about a small hole in the platform for the cleats to index into? I’ve gone this and it does a good job at making things a little more sturdy.

    • @CapturingDust
      @CapturingDust  2 месяца назад

      I think a U channel strip on top of the bin could be a option. Only I did not choose that route because I like the bin to be as standard as possible.
      I am planning on releasing the REV 02 files of the Y-pieces and in and outlets end of this weekend.
      I redesigned the Y-pieces so they don’t need any support material now to print. And I reduced some weight on the in and out let’s.
      I’m am focusing now on the testing setup to see how the performance is on different situations.

    • @CapturingDust

      You will need a 100mm hose for it. Connecting a regulator shopvac is not enough. Maybe only for one tube, but I think it is still under powered than.

  • @MrDBT85
    @MrDBT85 2 месяца назад

    It occurs to me to wonder whether this would work ok with 100mm tubes. That would shorten the entire design considerably (useful in my case) though I wonder if it would perform adequately. Since a Camvac is only a 100mm inlet anyway, and in reality the motors that are used only have a 50mm hole for air to be sucked through, I feel it might be ok. The original Harvey unit uses a centrifugal fan with likely a 150mm inlet, so running dual 150mm pipes is a necessity I would have thought.

    • @CapturingDust
      @CapturingDust  2 месяца назад

      There is a patent that uses a factor 1.4-1.6 of the big tube compared to the inlet diameter: patents.google.com/patent/EP2832449A1/en
      Questions is what kind of dust sizes it is tested on. And how fast the air is moving through the pipes I think.
      I like to make a version myself for my festool extractor. That’s uses about 27/36mm I believe. And 50mm to the motor.

    • @MrDBT85
      @MrDBT85 2 месяца назад

      @@CapturingDust That is very intersting. So my camvac has a 100mm inlet, which is ~7800cm2. If we wanted dual inlets that would roughly match this, they would each be 65mm in diameter which would then give us a pair of 100mm diameter main tubes.

      I still need to test that. I ordered a oneida cycloon to compare, only it’s in backorder for 2 months now. They are hard to get here in the Netherlands.
      I guess the pressure loss is a bit less on the centrifugal separator because the air doesn’t need to make a u turn compared with a cyclone. Only really big difference I think will not happen when both separaters are designed accordingly for the blower and dust type.
      There is very little research available for the centrifugal separators. So there are no calculations for it available. It will be trail and error to find the optimal design for each type of application.
      I hope we together can create the necessary test information to better understand how the different design parameters can affect the performance.
