Dust Collection options for bedroom turned workshop

I love that clear tub do you have a link to it/ I want to get one.

My lathe mentor (89) bought the Laguna B/flux last year and loves it! The only complaint was that the plastic hose outlet didn’t seal completely to the metal body, but taking it off and putting a little sealer under it solved that. And it’s not overly loud.

Concerning the bag - I’ve had numerous collectors and what I do before I put the bag on is, I put hd duct tape at the top of the bag all the way around the bag. Then I fold the top of the bag over (so the duct tape is now between the 2 layers of the bag, then put another line of duct tape almost at the top of the bag sticking down enough so that it holds the lip of the bag down to the bag itself.

Then I add another layer of tape at the very top, so that half goes inside and half outside.

Now you have a VERY sturdy top lip on the bag. The metal strap and tape will seal the bag much better AND the top of the bag will last forever no matter how many times you take it off.

This also makes it much easier to put the metal strap on.

Hint - tape the bag up in place with just a couple of small pieces of duct tape. This will hold it up while you put the strap on
