Awesome Single Bucket Cyclone Dust Collector (Thien Baffle Design)

This is my take on the Thien Baffle design for a single bucket dust collector. I've used this dust collector in my home workshop (small apartment) for the past 6 months, and I'm very happy with it! It collects successfully almost all saw dust, fine particles and wood shaving, and clogged only once in this entire time. I plan to make some improvements such as anchoring the bucket to a stable surface and making the lid more rigid. There are many builds of this collector on the internet. I started this one as a proof of concept but it was so good that I just kept using it :) check out J.P.
