How is the dust collector project going? Do you have any ideas collected so far?

Picked this up at Canadian Tire today - on sale for $10, if it does not work out handy to have. Looked at the standard pails with lids but none I saw had lids that snapped on tight enough for my liking. This one has clasps that snap the lid in place. Lid is not perfectly flat though so may not be best. Looked at a big funnel - but was not convinced it would work. Didn't remember to bring the dimensions of the PVC pipes needed, tried grabbing an attachment from the Shop Vac section and tried the PVC pipe they had, none would have fit. Hmmm. Will need to look again at what size pipe was used.

Once I get it made I'll post to the forum.
