Are you talking about these: http://www.acehardware.com/product/index.jsp?productId=51625696 http://www.lowes.com/pd_49940-20097-6004511_0__?productId=3160385 I am also assuming that you are wanting to integrate the vacume into the seperator, otherwise I do not see why having two seperate buckets and the piping between them is a problem. Just make an extension on the top of the seperator and you should be able to add the motor on top. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ _______________________________________________ Emc-developers mailing list [email protected] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/emc-developers
