Editorial Review:

Designed to fit securely on a standard 30-gallon metal can, the Jet 2-Stage Dust Collection Hood converts single-stage collectors into two-stage dust systems. This separator removes heavy wood chips and other debris before it reaches the dust collector, saving loads of time emptying bags and trips to the dumpster. The molded ABS fitting is engineered to use cyclonic action to drop out larger particles from the dust flow, and the fitting features molded inlet and outlet openings that can be easily connected to standard systems using 4-inch flexible collection hose. The can and hose are sold separately.

Dust Collection Separator:

Excellent product. When ripping Trex decking for a fence product my dust collector would plug up at the housing before the fan blades. After installing this separator.everything works like a champ.

woodchip container cover:

ad said to use with 20 gallon trash can. No way possible. I was fortunate to obtain (free of charge)at a roofing work site, a 50 gallon barrel with a removable top that was held on by a circular adjustable collar.

The outside dia. of the... more info

Good but there are better:

I picked this up to go with my Father's Day gift, a Delta 50-760. I have a small shop and I will only be running one machine at a time. I connected it easily and it worked well.
I compared this to another from Woodcraft but WC did not have one in stock so I decided on this to save a few dollars and a few days. I should have held out.
Compare:
- This one does not have a foam gasket seal, WC does. There is a loss of suction where the plastic lid meets the metal can.
- The fit is loose on... more info

It works. This has amazed everyone with its efficiency!:

With a new 50-760 Delta Dust collector for a new 12" planer, this separator was the best idea in a long while. I planed four little boards, less than 3 inches wide and under 3 feet long, and one 10 ft long board, taking off about 1/16th of an inch across its 9" width. As a result, the 30 gallon garbage can had 6-10 inches of coarse sawdust and chips. I am very impressed. It's going to really be a life stretcher for the vacuum impeller!
The clear bag under the vacuum only had about two cups of finer... more info
