I recently installed a 3HP Oneida Super Dust Gorilla in my shop. The cyclone is great and very well made. However, I'm using the steel drum and think it might be leaking a bit and am not sure how to tackle it.
The biggest reason I believe this is because I can see dust circling in the hose between the cone and collection drum. While most of the dust travels downward, some of the finer dust seems to travel slightly upward in the groves of the house. I'm also getting some fine dust in the filter. It's not a ton, but more than I'd expect. I have caulked the bottom of the drum and that helped, but I think I'm getting some infiltration around the lid or hose connections. Is there an easy way to determine where it's coming from?
