Well that's some pretty good suck! Collapse a 5 gal. bucket. Could you put a plastic bag in the bucket? So you don't have to empty the bucket into a bag latter? I know the dust likes to go all over went transferred from the collector to the bag. Been thinking of trying that. Putting a trash bag in it. I may do that tomorrow.
I once asked a vacuum seller once. "hows business?" he said... " it suck's!" LOL!
The trash bags I use I can put the whole bucket in it. So it's not to bad with the dust. At least I didn't to much problem with it. EB

The last cart/table. Today I made the last cart for the sanders. I used some more of the plywood I have gotten. It is 1/2" ply. I cut 8 pieces of the ply for legs. I use the middle part I cut form the table as the base or bottom. I used glue and screws to put it together. I also used 1/2" ply for the top.
My wife and I had bought some furniture doilies from Harbor Fright some time ago. I would up taking the carpet off of one of them and then cut it it in half. I then screwed it to the bottom of the cart. LOL! That was my wife's Idea and it worked out great! Sometimes she surprises me.
The car is super strong. The cool thing about this cart was I didn't have to spend anything on it in making it. So it is the most inexpensive cart yet. LOL! Up and coming this week will be to paint all of the carts I have made.
At some point I may add a shelf to it. I did not glue the top on for that reason. I did come out a little tall. That's because I forgot to allow for the wheels.
Both of the sanders do fit good and I can use them both if need be. I have 80 grit on one and 120 on the other one.
This is it as far as making carts and tables at this point. I do think I'll be adding wheels to the table saw table. I found out today while using it to make the cart, that would made things better if I could have been able to role it around. So that will be coming up soon.
Now , I need to get back to work on guitars. The parts came in for that 12 string today. I might work on it tomorrow. It's Thanksgiving so hard to tell what I'll do. EB

I found out something cool today. My Shop vac and the dust collector fit inside this cart. Like ti was made for it. So, now I don't have to come with another way for it. Now the two are out of the way.
I am thinking of finding a longer hose to put on it. That way I would not have to move it until it was time for cleaning out the bucket. I could not have done better if I had measured it out and made the cart for this reason. HA!
My wife and I also today closed in the table saw on 3 sides. I am trying to control the saw dust when using it. I still need to do something up front (feed end) I'm thinking of putting a door on the front so I can get there to do clean out. I am also trying to come up with was to put maybe a bag around the bottom of the saw. Well, that is it for this day.
I also rearranged my guitar room today. So, we did a lot today. All, had had planed to do today was paint the cabs that I had made. Nope, the cabs did not get painted. But a lot of other things did get done! LOL!

Eddie I'm loving seeing you all charged up about guitar work again Bro'. でつ e&oe ...yep! I'm getting there. Now that I am off a drug I was on, I feel more like my old self. COVID helped me to get off it. That was one good thing that came out of COVID. My little shop is almost done. I am going to put wheels on the table saw table, now that we have it pretty much closed in. It will be nice to be able to move it around as needed.
