hi guys. i almost have my shop completely the way i needed it to be..... last problem is the media coming out the vac. i am using very fine glass bead and have a small shop vac with a fine filter on it. it seems it comes out the back exhust hole. some help would be great!
Rig up a shop vac with the either the blue paper filter over the foam or with the new (and probably better) air-cleaner baffle type filter, and use the high-efficiency contractor grade bags as well. They are yellow and feel almost like cloth as opposed to the white papery filter bags.
I run a couple 6 gallon shop vacs, one in the shop, one for on-site purposes, and I cannot ever risk spitting shit out the port in someone's million dollar living room, so I run the baffle filter and the yellow bag all the time. Always 100% effective, they are quite good.
ok thanks. yes i have the cloth filter over the the foam.. the baffle bag seals the inside? if so that makes sense!!! so the media is contained in the bag and not sitting on the bottom of the vac tube bottom
ok great..wow there is so much to learn besides pipe making and good pictures....dam what did i get into!! kidding. i have been doing it since 2006 really
The fine filter bag has a large active surface area and won't plug up, and it basically means that the pleated filter stays clean for a long, long time. I use these bags vaccuuming drywall repairs - ultra fine dust. The bags are for Shop-vac brand shopvacs. They attach right at the opening where the hose goes.
