I am thinking about making a separator to use with both my DC and a shopvac. I would build it with 4 inch fittings on the separator for the DC, and use reducer/diffuser adapters to attach 2 1/4 inch shopvac hose. Has anyone else done this? Are there potential problems I should worry about? I realize there will be a sudden velocity changes where the 2 1/4 increases to 4 at the inlet and again where it decreases at the outlet. Will that interfere with the swirling motion needed for separation? Will a shop vac pull enough air through such a rig for it to work at all?
Thanks in advance for any thoughts.
