Handles for moving, and holder for the hose. I would've preferred to hard pipe this part, but it is very difficult to find piping of 2.25" here in Israel. I was even lucky to find the hose and connections!

Inside the wet/dry vac cannister. To get the hepa filter to fit, I had to remove part of the pail bottom. I used a tin snip to cut the ridge and then a pliar to twist it off. I smoothed the area out with a dremel tool. Then I added a round piece of pl

Inside top of the wet/dry cannister. I had to take off another plastic lip here. Again I used a tin snip and dremel, then added a wooden lip to center the filter. The filter comes with 2 rubber lips, and so makes a press fit from the top inside of the

Cyclone support and handles for cart. I put a few handle holds on the supports for the cyclone holder. The handles also serve as storage for the hose.

I used the cannister support without the gliders inside the top shelf section. It is convenient because it has holders for all the various tools.

Cyclone and dust barrel. I originally had a plastic barrel which I changed to a wood one. The plastic barrel sucked inwards and always leaked around the seal. These closures work well.
