hey folks I'm Dennis thanks for watching my video today I'm going to show you
what my solution to a chip separator from a dust collection system is I found
the local drum supplier in my area that has 30 gallon fiber drums with a
removable lid and a locking ring so it'll be airtight and then I went online
that ordered this little four inch chip separator kit and it should work just
fine for separating the chips and collecting most of the dust and keeping
it from going through the impeller on my dust collector so let's get started I've
seen some people use garbage cans which I think have probably worked just fine
for whatever reason I just wanted to use a fiber drum I thought it would work
better and this local supplier that I found they were fairly cheap so it was
just it was no more expensive than a garbage can and then I got this thing I
ordered off an off of Amazon I love I'll leave a link in the description of the
video below but it's a pretty simple kit it's got the hardware for installation
screws and nuts washers it's got two of these this part goes to the lid side for
the dust collector and the other side for the downstream part of your system
it's got a couple of nice hose clamps with the finger keys on and then I
thought was what was nice as it comes with a template for cutting out the
holes for the ports so you don't have to figure out how to you know which
diameter would not trace you can just use the template so it's also got a
4-inch dust separator kit the instruction sheet gives you a picture of
how it should look when you're done
walks you through step-by-step how to install it so we're going to do that
today
these come in a box like this these ports but here's actually how they work
there's a that's the outside what goes on the top of the lid and then course
this goes on the inside to direct the airflow so they screw together like this
there's screw always in both of them and marked on the template so they screw
together like this you know with the lid image lid for the drum in between so
once you mark the template onto the drum top you get your screw holes in the
screws jester or through screws through bolts by the time this video goes up I'm
gonna have already done this but I'm gonna ask for opinions and ideas I got
two ways I can do this you know drums almost always have bongs
in the top so you've got the small bung in the large button so my question is
this if you are doing this would you put these ports opposite they got to go
opposite each other obviously but would you put them would you use the buns and
cut up cut them out and eliminate them by putting the you know the ports in
like so like so which was my first thought was like well that makes more
sense to me or would you put them in like this and preserve the buns I can't
think of any reason why down the road and a chip separator I would need the
bungs freaking so it probably doesn't matter but at the same time you hate to
get rid of something that you might use later on so leave a comment below about
your thoughts which way you would go I haven't quite decided yet which way I'm
gonna go but we'll find out here in a minute want to put the template on and
start cutting I'm going to take the lid off the drum
all right so here's the template what they tell you to do is cut the inner
circles out and they've got scissor marks showing they cut in half sake can
place each one of the ports so I'm going to do that these use scissors or I'm
going to use exacto knife
so I'm going to take the lid and and decide which way to put these if they
tell you to make sure you leave a couple inches between the wall and the and the
port itself so that should work out fine because there's a pretty good margin
around here for the lid there's anything inside that small groove right in here
is that's 2 inches so anything inside of there is fine and then you just got to
make sure you got a flat spot to get the screws through I believe I've decided
I'm going to put them right over the bones cut the bums out my first thought
was well it could use the buns for like inspection ports to see when it was full
but I can't really think of a good practical way to do that so I'm just
gonna put the ports where the bung to go that gives me a nice clean installation
on the top lid you also need to cut the little screw holes out
I'm just gonna take a sharpie you can tape it down or hold it down whatever
you want 7/32 bit goes through these holes so if you want the holes in the
lid to match the holes in the force then 7/32 is your bit now we just got to
drill the holes and cut out the holes so
you can cut these out with either a jigsaw or if you've got like a coping
saw let's see whatever else you I don't I don't know what that she would use
like a coping saw maybe or a scroll saw jigsaw you can cut these out with or if
you have to you could cut it out if you got a plastic lid you cut out with
utility knife so I'm gonna come with a jigsaw
now the instructions don't say anything about using any kind of a sealer but I'm
going to take some caulking sealer and put around the bottom of the outer
flange and the top of the inner flange clean them up first where you do that
I've got a sawdust on there but the only thing I would say is I would be cautious
about what kind of caulking you use I wouldn't use anything that's got like
toluene or anything like that if you're using a plastic lid or because these
things are plastic because I don't know if it'll melt it or not this is a it's a
waterproof caulk but well once it dries but it cleans up with water so it's
water soluble the harshest thing it's got in is ethylene glycol so it'll be
fine with plastic wait them together is this said anyway it comes with them with
two sets of screws long and short just depend on how thick the lid is on your
drum so I should I should be able to use the short screws but then you just run
the screws through I'm gonna run them through the bottom because I want the
screw or through the top because I want the screw head on the on the top side
and then put nuts on there and tighten them up and then I'll wipe the cock off
when I'm done around the edges and that'll be it
they come with with aircraft nuts that'll that are like self-locking so
that's a nice feature along with thumb washers it's funny my - with caulk
obviously that's white
the tube says clear I think that somebody adapt was asleep at the switch
I'm just gonna wipe that off make sure that it's got any dust on it and wipe
the dust off of that it's salary I don't think it's a real critical seal but just
seems to me it'd be a good idea
these are 5/16 nuts so I'm just gonna use in that driver screwdriver there
they're slotted combination slighted Phillips screw so you can use whatever
you got and I'm gonna get them tight but I'm not gonna crank down on them because
I don't want to break all this plastic
you might find the chap to have a wrench matter of fact uh you definitely have
treble range so you'll probably need a wrench to get to the to the ones on the
other side of
so then that's how that'll look once you get that in there and then I've just got
to make sure that the other port comes in from this side so that they're
opposite each other
okay so this how you end up on the inside with each port facing the
different direction and then that's how you end up on the topside say you got a
place for your desk collector to connect to one side and then your downstream to
connect to the other put that on like so put the ring on it yeah that's it shut
lock it and there we go like that then I can attach my dust collector here and
should give me a really good chip and dust separation so what I'll do is in a
later video want to get my desk collection system set up and hooked up
then I'll let you know how this thing worked out so that's it kind of a simple
little installation but gives you an idea of how to do it at least how to do
it the way I did it and how this little kit works like say I'll leave a link
below in the description on where to get this kit to the ball it's just a four
inch if they call it a 4 inch dust separator kit and if I remember right it
was about $20 so y'all let you know how it goes in a in a later video once I get
this connected and set up with the rest of my dust collection system and in the
meantime check out some other videos and give me like if you would subscribe to
