Having assembled my shop equipment, and watching Stumpy Nubbs show on chip collection for the lower budget…MINE! LOL! Went to my local box stores to purchase a trash can and I was sorely disappointed at the quality of the product in more than one store. At present I have no money for tools. So I remembered the burn barrel I purchased last year for $&.%). Checked it out…price increase. 10 bucks!
Had to clean out dried peanut oil! Another fun task?
Lots of fun cutting out the lid and lower deflector as my band saw didn't seem to be cutting to smoothly. Got some great advise from fellow LJ's helping out a Newbie. Got it figured out after seeing a great video recommended by Horizontalmike Didn't have a circle cutting jig for my router. Bought some Plexiglas to make one. Tried to cut the holes for the input ports with my circle cutter for sheet metal. Worked once in practice. Dulled the bit??? Cut the 4" holes with my Makita saber saw
!
Found excellent instructions for building the thein Dust chip collector by Googling and I purchased the input/output ports from Rockler as they screw together.
!
Sanded and used two coats of shellac sealer, then Rustolium spray primmer and the grey spray paint I used to clean up my Delta Dust Collector
I used carriage bolts, 8" x 3/8's and made sleeves from my conduit that I screwed up putting in my 220 volt line for my cabinet saw. LOL! I like to overbuild. could have just left it.
Purchased some coaster wheels to mount to the bottom of the can for ease of movement. But I have had to start on my decaying second floor windows in my Victorian House. Thought it would be a matter of scraping old paint. NOPE! water damage. It's my NEW PRIORITY as I am not getting any younger and I'm working off a two story ladder!

Dave I am probably better with submarine parts than furniture….LOL!
Bluepine38 I have ladderjacks from wood ladder days. I have even built wood scaffolding in my younger daze. I am planning on working a lot from the inside. Thanks
Harry Now I need the name of the name of that guy who cleaned your shop. LOL!
eddie there are some good books on shop building and organization. I also wish I had a lot of the information shared by LJ's and other woodworkers before I bought the tools I purchased, and now assembled. But they work and I have to put my reams of information gathered into knowledge? Scary isn't it? LOL! Best wishes on your journey.
Not a whole lot to show for progrees since the last posting, but I have two functional chores completed toward my goal.
When I constructed my Thein chip separator I had a difficult time, and therefore extended time in cutting the plywood circles. Used my Makita Saber Saw, and then figured out/tuned up my Band Saw with help from some knowledgeable Lumberjocks. My thanks ( again!) for the guidance.
Realized I could cur faster with a circle cutter, and used my sheet metal circle cutter. As I mentioned I cut one hole which dulled the bit. Resorted back to my saber saw.
Marc Adams of the Marc Adams Woodworking School did a two day workshop for the MN Woodworkers Guild. I purchased his set of instructional DVD's and learned a bunch. Remembered the Router DVD. It has Router Jigs. Replayed it, took some notes, and bought some 1/4 inch acrylic from my local window repair guy.
The jig is et up with 1/2 inch increments starting FROM A 4" RADIUS THROUGH A 16" RADIUS.
Used my drill press, band saw, and stationary sander. This slow poke took a day with careful attention so I didn't have to cut and drill a second time. LOL!
I had mentioned that I have yet to put wheels on the chip separator. That actually went well. Used one fixed wheel and two multidirectional wheels with locks.
I had originally build a garden shed for my snow blowers, lawn mowers, and I had intended to put the dust collector in the building which is about 4 ft from my shop. Realized my Delta is only 1200 cfm, and I had purchase flex 4" with blast gates. This was before I knew how much dust collectors really need to suck.
Went with my original plan and put it in the Garden Shed. I'm in the process of figuring out the connection between the two buildings.

great little circle cutting jig. I've been meaning to build on for myself one of these days, instead of using a piece of scrap attached to the router and drilling a hole in it. This looks much quicker in the long run, and far more accurate.
You've got a big barrel that can hold a lot of wood chips and with every post you are getting closer to starting to fill it up. I look forward to your next post.

Oh Dah! Other than my collector I do have a situation that sucks! have to replace the rotten framing in my second story window of my old Victorian house. Thought I would just have to scrape and paint. (will try to do all work from inside vs. up on a two story ladder, as I don't bounce so well these days.)

I had originally build a garden shed for my snow blowers, lawn mowers, and I had intended to put the dust collector in the building which is about 4 ft from my shop. Realized my Delta is only 1200 cfm, and I had purchase flex 4" with blast gates. This was before I knew how much dust collectors really need to suck.
Went with my original plan and put it in the Garden Shed. I'm in the process of figuring out the connection between the two buildings.
Not a whole lot to show for progrees since the last posting, but I have two functional chores completed toward my goal.
When I constructed my Thein chip separator I had a difficult time, and therefore extended time in cutting the plywood circles. Used my Makita Saber Saw, and then figured out/tuned up my Band Saw with help from some knowledgeable Lumberjocks. My thanks ( again!) for the guidance.
Realized I could cur faster with a circle cutter, and used my sheet metal circle cutter. As I mentioned I cut one hole which dulled the bit. Resorted back to my saber saw.
Marc Adams of the Marc Adams Woodworking School did a two day workshop for the MN Woodworkers Guild. I purchased his set of instructional DVD's and learned a bunch. Remembered the Router DVD. It has Router Jigs. Replayed it, took some notes, and bought some 1/4 inch acrylic from my local window repair guy.
The jig is et up with 1/2 inch increments starting FROM A 4" RADIUS THROUGH A 16" RADIUS.
Used my drill press, band saw, and stationary sander. This slow poke took a day with careful attention so I didn't have to cut and drill a second time. LOL!
I had mentioned that I have yet to put wheels on the chip separator. That actually went well. Used one fixed wheel and two multidirectional wheels with locks.
