Questions & Answers
As far as I'm concerned, it works perfectly. There is a slight concave top on the 6" Ideal- and others have mentioned that a bit as well. I am going to use the air A duct collar that can be found on Amazon is reliable and has no leaks. In addition, six screws and bolts were used to make the box more secure. There is no need for nuts and bolts, but they might be handy. A suction force is sufficient to make the lid snug without the need for a metal clamp to secure it One thing I don't like about the can is the handles they aren't recessed under the metal, so they're a bit slippery when trying to lift it to empty it, but it's just a minor inconvenience. I have no worries about the can ever buckling under pressure since it is very strong.
With the dust deputy and shop vac, I was able to clean up dust and debris. With a loud pop, I had the lid collapse slightly inward. There are no problems with the lid, and everything works as it should. Despite my negative experiences with this drum, I still wouldn't hesitate to recommend it for anyone who needs to use it with turbo style vacuums. I used this drum during my kitchen remodel, and will now use it for sanding and refinishing
An elongated shadow appears at the level of the dirt. The image looks great in direct sunlight.
With it attached to my entire system, I've got a dust depth of about 10 mm. Other videos using the same container have been viewed by me as well. Considering how heavy a large container will be when it is full might be important. As soon as it is nearly full of dust, this container is quite heavy. I recommend it highly.

Many people give it a good review, but there are some complaints as well. Considering that this wasn't designed to handle dust, it might not be the best option for a Dust Deputy. Nonetheless, it is a very good book. The first thing I noticed about it was how sturdy it is. A 5-pound weight is stronger than a typical 5-pound weight The bucket has a gallon capacity. I wouldn't say it's flimsy at all, it's quite sturdy. The bottom of the piece has a slight convexity. This isn't great at all. However, it's not that big of a Deputy Deputy not a problem at all. All you need are some bolts and silicone caulk to attach it. One person complained that it had a malformed bottom and fell over when it stood up. When that is the case, it has been damaged or defective. It seems to me that they are fine. You could put some friction tape on the bottoms of the handles if you really wanted. Adding your own handles is even more fun. I think they're fine, but don't quote me on that. Despite its many advantages, this little box has a huge disadvantage the lid is so difficult to remove. The opening and closing of the door isn't always designed for frequent use. It is possible that some plastic-type materials could be used You could use a lubricant that's safe. It is important to note that the lid inserts into the drum about 1 inch from the top. I plan to sell it for $55. There is probably no need for a ring clamp since it seals reasonably well without it. If there is enough time, I might snap a few pics There would be no problem with it being clear, but nobody seems to make anything like that There are brands of drum that make a "natural" color drum, meaning that they did not use dies, and the drum has a milky, slightly translucent color. On this drum, the top has a nice texture. Nevertheless, I have found "natural" drums that are more expensive than this one, and it is available only What do you think? Is it an absolutely perfect fit I don't, but I think it's a great piece. The result is satisfactory to me.
The base serves as a mounting platform for other items.
The picture may not tell you how aggressive the animal really is, but I was surprised when I saw it. Despite that one blemish, it is a very nice bin apart from that one thing. It helps to cut the lid hole for the cyclone, as most of the concavity in the lid is located in the center, but it is still an issue, and it bothered me that there was so much play in the lid. To fix this, I cut a plywood donut shape and mounted it on the lid in several places by installing bolts to solidify it. With this next upgrade, it is ROCK SOLID, and it's perfect for dust collection. I am rating this 5 stars since it is not intended for this application and is a really good bin anyway. Nevertheless, there are a couple of ways to make it work.
