J. Phil Thien's Projects

thanks!

I'm new here. Small hobby projects like boxes, chests & trying clocks now. I need to upgrade my DC to more than the small cyclone & shop vac I have now. I'm sure a Thein baffle works but can't seem to find the location of the slot in relation to the inlet. Also the depth of the exhaust drop in the lid. Are there dimensinons and angular relationships somewhere in this post that I'm missing? On the pictures it looks like the slot ends about under the centerline of the vertical of the inlet elbow. The only real numbers I found were the 240 deg. for the 1.125" slot. I'd like to try 4" duct so I'm also wondering if there is some science to scaling up your 2.5"?

Thanks!
