Vac Sys mobile cart

[member=167]neilc[/member]  Unfortunately my projects came to a halt for the foreseeable future with the children at home. I have some nifty LR-32 modifications up my sleeve that work really well on the Vac Sys cart setup. They're done but I won't have time to show them off for a while.  [tongue]

I've been enjoying this cart. It's a central part of my workflow. I added the 2nd head recently. I don't think I appreciated how the 2nd head works. You could use them independently off one foot valve if it's just you working on smaller pieces.

I have plans to make the heads quick detach in the future but I'm glad I can stuff all those hoses in the cart so they're out of sight.

Very nicely done [member=65062]DynaGlide[/member] .  I did threaded inserts on a drill press for my systainer cart but they didn't come out great.  Also had issues getting them installed.  Some were a bit crooked and some didn't go in all the way. I like the router idea.  will use it next time.  What bit did you use for these? what size are the inserts?

[member=71889]festal[/member] Looks like I used these: https://www.ezlok.com/ezhex-insert-808125-13

I think I got them from McMaster-Carr as item 95596A200. I believe the bolts I used were item 91239A416 also from McMaster-Carr.

I used this router bit to create the ~11mm holes for them: Whiteside Router Bits RU4950

And these are the casters I like: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B06XJ8VQR8/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Trickiest part is securing the router somehow. I'm contemplating a vacuum pod attachment for an auxiliary router base.

Thank you.  Those are the same inserts I used. 
I probably should have used epoxy or wax to lubricate the threaded inserts during installation. 
Interesting idea on vacuum pod attachment.  I would have just used 3/4 piece of scrap on the end.
