Different design: ShopVac Cyclone - Ohio Mike - 12-25-2016

This guy came up with a slightly different design for his shop vac cyclone.  With this design, the tiny amount of dust that escapes the cyclone and makes it into the filter chamber will fall back into the bucket when you shut off the power.

That's a nice, compact setup.  I have thought of putting my cyclone on wheels because it always seems to be in the wrong place.

I like his bucket.  Did he say where he got it? on edit: I guess it's this one: https://www.amazon.com/Eagle-1654-Blow-Molded-Lever-Lock-Capacity/dp/B000LDEP0C

I was wondering where he got the bucket.  Thanks for the Amazon links. 
Cool

And to think I just throw a bag in mine and vacuum the floor.
