I bought a dust deputy a few years back and never got to use it becasue it was in two pieces ( flimsily made) so I just put it on the shelf for another day. Today I thought I'd finally try and fix it so I could use it. I contacted oneida who said there are two glues available but when I looked they say they do not stick to polyethelene. I understand this is a common problem with the older plastic dust deputy's which Oneida confirm it is and tell me they changed the design.

Am I glad I bought it - NO
Would I buy another - No Way
Would I recommend it - You would be a fool to buy one of these. Don't waste your money on this cheap flimsy bit of plastic.

What am I going to do now. maybe make a youtube video to warn others and then throw it in the junk.

I have one I purchases about 5 years ago and it came in one piece.
All I had to do was bolt it to my chosen buck with lid.
I could have purchased said buckets and hardware but why would I spend
$70 more for 2 buckets with lids one with hole and some other useless
hardware. I purchased 2 buckets at Lowes with lids for less than $10.
It hasn't given me any grief other than my own stupidity of buying the
wrong type lid so the first lid failed.
I will eventually cut out an MDF lid, but for now it works good.
