My mom was babysitting today so I got some shop time. Anyway, last time I
used my DC, I noticed the suction was low. I have a Wynn filter on top of a
HF DC. Other than banging on the filter, I haven't taken it apart since I bought
it over 4 years ago. With dust mask on, I took it apart and saw that all the
pleats were caked with dust. I have a drum sander so that's probably where
most of it came from.
I spent half hour shaking loose and blowing out the pleats. Finally, I sucked
them clean with my shopvac. Ironic that the shopvac had to rescue the DC.
When all was said and done, there was over 10lbs of dust caked in there!
After I clean and before I start the nexr project, I think I need to invest
some time in making a Thein baffle.
