Hey Guys,
Well, after much research, I bought the Clear Vue Mini CV06 from Ed, at www.clearvuecyclones.com. Actually, I bought two, one for another use.
After talking to Oneida, and realizing I would have to use reducers to fit hoses to the Dust Deputy, I called Ed. He informed me of the sizes, I measured, and the Festool hose fit perfect.
The large Festool Hose supplied with the boom arm, fits perfectly into the top of the Cyclone, and a standard shop vac hose, fits into the suction port perfectly (no adaptors needed).
I mounted it to a 14 gallon open head, plastic medical transport barrel that has a seal and locking ring on top. I will post pics in the morning (camera batteries charging).
Things I discovered......
-CT33 at full suction will collapse this 1/8" thick wall barrel if using small diameter Festool hose supplied with your CT.  At lowest suction setting collapse was gone.
 I will fit it to a steel 16 gallon barrel on Monday. But for now
-I want to operate this thing at full suction power, so...........
-Needing to plane some 10/4, 1/4 sawn white oak at a friends house....
I loaded up my CT33, DW735 Planer, Barrel and cyclone.
Turns out oak is 8" wide and 10' long, and their are 8 pieces of it!!
It was raining outside, so we opted to do it in his garage, connected Cyclone to CT33, and his Craftsman shop vac hose to the planer chip chute and intake of cyclone, No adaptors needed. I removed the flex hose from Dewalt planer dust bag and shop vac hose fit it perfectly.
Now the good part,
Keep in mind, we are in a heated small garage.
Installed brand new bag in CT33
Fired everything up, suction on full, planer running, no collapse.
Proceeded to plane about half the oak to 1.75" until the barrel filled up.
Emptied barrel,(obviously) restarted, and finished planing.
The most amazing thing was,
This little setup kept us virtually dust free in his garage,
Cyclone never plugged,
CT33 bag had barely anything in it!!
WOW!! I am impressed by this little cyclone!!
I will post pics tomorrow
Hope this helps anyone wondering how good this idea works.

John,

It's my duty to inform you that you are in violation of FOG ordinance 140.3.1, Subsection 12, paragraph 4.  It reads:

"All ungodly claims of superior performance, awesome new jigs, great projects, etcetera, etcetera... blah, blah... MUST be accompanied by appropriate pictorial evidence to prove that said claims did in fact occur!!!"   

As your humble servant and FOG picture cop (aka FPC), I'll let you off just this once with subtle warning: 





Regards,

Dan.

How about cutting a couple of plywood rings to stuff into the can to reinforce it from inside?

John,

Glad you asked...  (Actually you didn't ask, but I'm a pushy bugger.)  It just so happens that your faithful picture cop (along with the valuable contributions of other pic lovers) has written a tutorial on the ways and means of uploading pics:

It covers several topics, but this one covers uploading pics quick and easy: http://festoolownersgroup.com/index.php?topic=287.0.

Dan.

Impressive suction!

Thanks Dan for demanding PICTURES!!!!

Hope someone can find the ideal solution for the collection can. Might have to get this.

I posted some pictures of the contraption.
Had troubles resizing with this new Mac in iPhoto, so I just posted a link.
Trep:
I am pretty sure I have a solution to the collapse problem. I will let you know Monday evening.
The barrel I used has handles made into it, I thought that would be a plus!!
Dan:
Thanks for the picture uploading info. Now, if I can just figure out how to resize in iPhoto I'll be all set

I'll try the File - Export  to resize from iPhoto. What I've been doing recently is selecting a group of pics, and then e-mailing to myself! During this process you are prompted for picture size from 5-6 choices. When I receive them as attachments, I then drag them into a new folder. Klutzy, to say the least, but it has been working.

Also, for Mac users, if you aren't using Graphic Converter, I highly recommend it. It costs about $40, but it's been several years so I don't quite remember. Developer updates it often, and unless it is a real major update, they are all free. (I believe I paid about half price for a major update once, over about 5 years.)

GC handles ALL the common graphic formats, and about 20 more that you've never heard of. Good slide shows, graphic effects, etc.

Also, BTW, be very cautious about moving iPhoto folders around!!!!!

I did this to clean up a disk during a backup procedure, and all the folder and album links fall apart. It's a real mess, because when you re-import the pics the new folder dates are TODAY, rather than when you first entered them. Also, it re-imports all the thumbnails, thinking they are new pics, so you have to go through each folder, remove the thumbnails, re-name the folder for the correct date, and then re-import. A huge PITA!

There are ways of doing this correctly. Take my word for it -- it's well worth your time to look this up FIRST.

I believe if you move the entire Pictures folder as one unit you'll be OK, but don't take my word for it. YMMV.

I ordered a clear vue and I think I will try this great idea Don!

I will post pics after I try it out..

Thank You
 Scott & Ed
for your help in iPhoto (i knew it had to be easy)
Don & Ned:
 I am sure the Sys 5 would implode!! It may not crack, but it would distort enough to create blowby.
John

I think the sys 5 would be easy to reinforce. I would also get the foam insert for the lid of the sys, like the one that comes with the sys 1 box so the screws stay put.

Eiji

No, I'm sure 1/2" would be plenty.  That's a good idea.

  I think the top not being flat is a problem.  You need a flat surface to attach the CV06 to, at least an 8" diameter or so, & you'll bore a 2-1/2" hole in the center for the cyclone bottom.  With out a flat top I don't see how.  Even a plywood top would allow to much leakage.  Also, by lining the box you're losing alot of volume, why do that.  Don't try this with just the box as it will implode, seriously.
  How about just building a plywood box using baltic birch, this way the Domino can be employed.  I'm considering this as a last resort though since it seems like more work than I have the time for now.  I'll try one more trash can or so for now.

  Have not tried making a drum Dave but I think it would suck the foam out of the seam no matter what you do.  The CFM is real strong, & as soon as there is a slight leak it pulls in stronger in that area, like a flood gate.  Perhaps a caulk sealant would do best.  I'm hesitant to build anything experimental right now as this is getting to be trying.  I will go to a steel drum, but not a 55 gal., so I'll need to search for one.  I might try a fiber drum with steel rings top & bottom, though not to tall.  As soon as the opposite sides begin to pull in its over.  The container will fold flat, if any leak develops in it down low.  The white bucket I found on E-bay may work, I'll see.  I like the moulded rings in the body.  The guy says they were used to ship water, so I know they must be strong enough for that.  At least they won't explode with volume pressure, I'll find out about imploding under negative pressure.  They are only 22" tall & 20" wide, so if the wall thickness is good I think it'll work.

I was thinking of use of adhesive backed foam tape, which would also be compressed in the groove to keep it in place.  The primary purpose of the adhesive is to hold the tape in place when you remove the lid.  The base can be sealed to the cylinder section with silicone caulk.  That is what Oneida provides with its commercial duty machines (I know because I have one and assembled it last Fall.)

Here's another possibility - start with one of those plastic pails in which drywall compound comes (only about 5 gal capacity!).  Since these pails have a slight taper from top to bottom, you can reinforce the interior using a pair or more of plywood rings that you simply slip into the pail to increase its resistance to collapse.

I think a picture of a blown up systainer would be awesome!
