Which dust separator joint are you using in the corner below the extractor?
I don't normally see ones with 2 inlets.

Until I learn enough to build my own cyclone, I will use this vevor with magnetic flanges and spin it to face the needed branch. There is supposed to be a straight foot or two into the cyclone to work properly, and I just couldn’t figure something out without adding a bunch more elbows and a wye, plus a significant elevation change. So this is the second revision so far, typical of any other beginners dust collection system evolution.
Where did you get the magnetic flanges? I need some!

That's a pretty slick solution to that problem! I like the magnetic flanges - I'll have to remember that in the future.Until I learn enough to build my own cyclone, I will use this vevor with magnetic flanges and spin it to face the needed branch.
