J. Phil Thien's Projects

Hey Tacuabe! Yes, you're right, it's the hose... I was trying to adapt it so I wouldn't have to buy another but it seems impossible =/.
So I'll buy another that works with air. It's sounds like a Jet!! that's the word!! jajaj

Thanks neighbour (:

These are incredible news for me!!!
Thanks for your the time and attention!

Schrek: Great point! You're right.. the hose it's for swimming pools, I din't count with that at all and it's totally logical. I'll get another soon and try it. Reading that old thread gave me hope too! haha  Thank you so much!

Retired2: Your vision surprise me... That improvements  sound great to me, something was telling me that those spacers were too short, and here's you confirming it.. I'll do that change. First thing I'll do it's that simple test. Thanks for your accurate anticipation!!

I've got more than enought from you to continue working on my proyect.
THANK YOU BOTH!!!

Hi Everyone, ¡I need help with my baffle!
I'm Nico from Argentina (sorry if my english it's not quite well).

First of all, thanks Phil for posting your Cyclone Lid proyect, I was looking for a home-made system for my shop and I don't remember how I had founded this proyect. It seemed well to me so I decided to build my own following the baffle model the closest I could.

So, I bought a home vac without bag Samsung 2000W (Half price) and get myself a barrel (it's seems to be MDF or something like that, with aluminium rings), then I went to the shop and get some PVC tubes including the elbow, and a threaded rod to make the spacers.
I've finished it a few days ago, and I find out that a terrible thing happened.... When everything it's connect and the Cyclone it's working (it works very well) it began to make an annoying and acute sound (like a metalic thing vibrating).

I've tried to cover the threaded rod with silicone, to cover the upper metalic ring with a cloth, and even to fill the "C" cut from the PVC elbow...  but nothing happens  :-\

So I've decided to contact Phil or some of you guys to find the solution to my problem.
Can anyone help me out? I don't understand much of this type of systems and I'm a bit confused..

I atach a video and some photos that I took yesterday.

Hi Phil, I'm Nico from Argentina (sorry if my english it's not quite well). And I'm starting to work with wood on my own.

So I've decided to write to you, thinking that you might have the ideal solution to my problem here.. Can you help me out? I don't understand much of this type of systems and I'm a bit confused..
