DUSTY Paper stopper Thanks to Billy

Thanks to Billy (our model builder) for this idea which works a treat.

My dusty sits behind my mini lathe on the bench no stand etc just the pipe :~ but every now and then something to large like sand paper or a bit of rag goes through which gets caught up at the gate in the tube at the motor end and slows suction.

Billy when here came up with the idea of a bathroom floor waste gate which after 3 trips to Bunnings I finaly got one 90mm, plastic with removable gate. $6.50

Thanks Billy

Now while there for those who want a gulp type they have one which would suit its and gutter drain type, plastic two parts combined price about $25 Plumbing section drain grates.

Here it is fitted

Good and cheap solution.:2tsup:

There is also 100mm outdoors drain grate cover for larger dia hose.

Nice idea!
