    A member replied in the the thread of using a 5 gallon bucket about have full of water, PVC pipe into the water. From the pipe his cabinet.
    Another pipe out of the water for his shop vac. Lid was sealed.
    I think I have the details right, not sure.
    So a vacuum is created in the bucket, the vacuum depletes available space and draws through the water, through the tube, and ****s dust from the cabinet.
    The dust ac***ulates in the water and doesn’t kill your shop vac.
    Mainly trying to recall what he did to seal the PVC pipe to lid. Seemed slick at the time.
    If you recall it, saved it, etc, post up please.
    Thanks

    This gets you there, I think.

    Search 5 gallon bucket cyclone lid. A few different styles are out there. You could probably adapt them to wet. I use a couple of them dry, better with gl*** bead than soda. Soda ****s though. The gl*** bead one works fine. Soda creates some FINE dust. I have a blown up shop vac (with it's filter, I stripped out the vacuum part), after the cyclones, in-line, ahead of my vacuum. The vacuum filter stays clean, I just shake out the filter in the blown up one occasionally. I think water would end up a mess. Mike
