    The Wen 3403 Dust Collector is a great entry level dust collector. I did not enjoy emptying the bags of dust, so it was time for an upgrade. After 2 months of research, I built an upgraded dust collector using the bones of the Wen and a bunch of others. See how I fit the Oneida Dust Deputy and Wynn Environmental Filter into a two-stage system. This could also work great for the Harbor Freight Dust Collector.

    See how the upgrade is going here: czcams.com/video/AEMrpWTRFwE/video.html. We talk about more updates, filter performance, dust deputy performance, and more!

    Easy upgrade for barrel would be to get a clamp with quick release. Love the video and about to get a wen dust collector with the plan to do same upgrade next year.

      The removable tops are great. Just get a two piece lid and it works great!

      Or you could put a couple handles on the barrel and spin the barrel @@OutdoorsEngineer

    I believe that's a 3 stage system. Cyclone/separator/filter. Looks like it does the job!

  • @rdot980
    @rdot980 Před 5 měsíci +1

    You could probably delete the Oneida the way you have it set up and just put the big barrel where you have the small bucket. That's my plan except I'm going to vent my outside through a dryer vent that's in my workshop and also delete the filter.

    • @OutdoorsEngineer
      @OutdoorsEngineer  Před 5 měsíci +1

      The Oneida is nice to be able to get most of the big stuff out before it gets to the fan. The idea is to have multiple ways to extract dust, and the deputy is the first one in the line. Thanks for watching!

    has merv 10 been enough or do you see some super fine dust escape over time?

    • @OutdoorsEngineer
      @OutdoorsEngineer  Před 3 měsíci

      I honestly haven't noticed dust escaping. I've been happy with it. I never really thought of getting the next step of I think MERV 15. Are you thinking of getting one?

      Traduje esto usando IA. Típicamente, la mayoría de los sistemas son al menos de 4 pulgadas. Si tienes un sistema de 2.5 pulgadas, eso restringirá el flujo.

      I translated this using AI. Typically, most systems are at least 4 inch. If you have a 2.5 inch system, that will restrict flow.

      Stick around. I"m working on a video this week to be release this weekend of the updates and cleaning of the dust collector!
      Just use the air compressor to blow it out, blowing air from the outside.

      Filtering the air and not blowing dust directly into my shop.

    My super d.d. is way bigger that that. I don't think they had that size at the time I did mine. Or I messed up.

    • @OutdoorsEngineer
      @OutdoorsEngineer  Před 5 měsíci

      I originally had the big one. Then realized that they had a smaller one, so I swapped them and Woodcraft made that very easy. Sometimes the bigger one won't work as efficiently with a smaller blower motor that's on the Harbor Freight and Wen 3403.

  • @rogerthetinker5116
    @rogerthetinker5116 Před 5 měsíci

    Remove the guard on the blower inlet you will increase the sucking on the system.

  • @bmpwe
    @bmpwe Před 9 měsíci +2

    Why buy a different 2 part lid? Just cut the one you have to hold down a piece of ply to the barrel.

    • @OutdoorsEngineer
      @OutdoorsEngineer  Před 9 měsíci +1

      Not a bad idea. I do have another single lid I could cut down too. To be honest, I don't know if it's s need or not. Not that bad to just remove the flange.
