The thing I don't like about Oneida's Festool Specific Solution is the size. So big. No need, really. I'm thinking of retrofitting a systainer as done in this thread, but smaller. To determine the right size of systainer to repurpose, I did some rough calculations to compare systainer volumes with the CT bags. Here's what I found:
SYS1 (11.7L or 3.1Gal) : CT MINI (10L or 2.6 Gal)
SYS2 (17.6L or 4.6 Gal) : CT MIDI (15L or 4.0 Gal)
SYS3 (23.5L or 6.4 Gal) : CT 26 (26L or 6.9 Gal)
SYS4 (38.1L or 10.1 Gal) : CT 36 (36L or 9.5 Gal)
SYS5 (46.9L or 12.4 Gal) : CT 48 (48L or 12.7 Gal)
Basically, a SYS2 comes close to the 5 Gal pail version of the Dust Deputy! That's really slim. While you obviously won't be able to take advantage of the Systainer's entire volume once you build an interior receptacle, the overall volumes are surprisingly close! So a SYS3 with an interior receptacle would probably replicate or expand upon a cumerson 5 Gal pale. This affords people the choice of developing a more low profile chip container, albeit with less capacity.
I checked with Oneida, who confirmed that one can use a smaller size receptacle. The example I used was a shoe box. Now the other interesting thing to note here is that the smaller the size receptacle, the thinner the wall thickness would need to be before crushing would occur. I'm going to start looking around for premade solutions, although I bet a 0.25" finnish plywood would be more than enough to withstand the crushing forces. I'll also work on ways to use an interior bag to simplify cleanup.
I'll keep updating as I progress down the road with this project. In the meantime, feel free to contact me with any ideas.
