how about using the jack to lift the seperater off of the brute can.

Currently I have the separator firmly attached to the vertical angle iron plus the Grizzly impeller (on top of the separator) is connected via a hose to the bags on the right. I've been considering something like the lift at http://woodgears.ca/reader/saw_lift.html and http://woodgears.ca/mobile_base/table_saw.html. This week I'm super busy with other things thus it will be the weekend before I can possibly do anything.

I'm really excited about the possibility of using the 20 gal Brute (thanks WayTooLate ), it will save me a lot of work with the redesign. If the redesign gets too extensive I may do something like dan4307 (see http://www.jpthien.com/smf/index.php?topic=992.0) did. Basically he did the same as I did using a much simpler design.

Do you have any room at all below the trash can when installed?  I followed the KISS principle and just use a 2x4 under the can to keep it up against the separator.  Works like a charm.  I had started out getting all sophisticated as well and then settled on the simplest possible setup.
