Sawdust drop box – part 2

Got another hour in the shed last night to finish this off.

Top and bottom attached, more silicone, sticky stuff.

Drilling holes in the upper baffle:

Front siliconed and ready to go on:

A solid box:

Using the guide rail to cut the top off the box:

In two halves, a lid and the base/bin:

As luck would have it the door seal I had left over from our front door appears to be exactly 18mm wide, perfect :D :

Catches installed to lock two halves together:

Castors attached:

Vac attached. I simply screwed through the base into the top of my box:

Vac on top and intake hose cut to length:

Plenty of hot melt glue to attach hose through hole in top of box:

Hole drilled in side for main hose to tools:

More hot glue and hose attached to side:

Completed:

In it's new home:

Finally a first test. It works!!! Shavings in the box and not the bag :D
