In this video, I'll show you how I made a compact, all-in-one dust collection cart with a Dustopper cyclone separator and a Ridgid shop vac. The build was easy and fun. I'll show you how to keep the build at around $120 for a tight budget. As well as the idea of adding an automatic power tool/vacuum switch to the cart. Thanks for watching!

    Nice bro.. it made me laugh at the end and thanks for keeping it real
  • Hey man, nice work. I'm getting ready to build mine, here's how I measured my "bucket hole"...place bucket upside down, block-up a framing square to the level the bucket will sit, use another square or straight edge to touch off of the other side...a quickie vernier caliper.

    Great video, I will use it to build my own for sure! Any chance you could add the Home Depot links to the PVC pipe and fittings?
  • @carolsera8055
    The 2' coupling doesn't fit too snug on the Rigid casters. Did you make any adjustments to get a snugger fit? Thanks
  • Has anyone figured out a way to put the dust collector "inside" the shop vac? That would be the most space savings.

    I have a problem where I don’t have the rigid shop vac instead I have the craftsman cap 16 gallon. Pipes don’t fit in wheels
  • @clemgriffis3446
    I built the same setup and it is so top-heavy I can't pull it around the garage without it tipping over. I will need to build a wider base.
