I'm just doing my research on a DC and it seems like there is a few options:
1. Regular bag (or cartridge) DC
2. #1 modded with a pre-separator based on Phil's baffle
3. #1 with Phil's baffle internal to the DC
4. Stock cyclone
5. Clearvue cyclone
So has anyone combined #2 and #3. Any advantage or just redundant? Possibly with different radius for the 240 degree section - smaller radius on the pre-separator and a larger radius on the internal baffle. I'm thinking that the separator needs a larger one for the chips and the internal could benefit from a larger radius for the smaller dust.
