Or cry once and get the CV06 from clearvuecyclones, which works
fantastically well. I don't know how it compares to this particular
modification, but it's an order of magnitude better than a regular
separator lid, both in terms of separation and to basically be able to
fill the entire container to the brim without anything being pulled
through. Also it's cool being able to see it working

It's still not the CFMs of a real dust collector, but there are some
tools for which a vac is necessary.
