My son does drywall work and picked up a "dustless sanding system" at HD
that consists of a sanding screen holder that attaches to a long hose that
goes into a 5 gal. bucket half filled with water, a hose from the bucket
goes to a vac of your choice, most of the dust is trapped in the water,
works great, around $30 bucks. After seeing it I think you could make one
for about $5.

I'm trying to pick a wet-dry vac for general use in my home
renovations, but in specific, I need it to handle the dust that will
be created in several drywall projects I have on my priority list.
Does anyone have experience with any? I found the ShopVac Drywall Vac
on Amazon. Is that the way to go, or are there others I should
consider?

I have the "Magna MT800 Sand & Kleen Hand Sander System" which I bought
from Amazon. Without it your vacuum cleaner will become plugged up very
quickly.

drywallsanding - it was fine and the result did not harm my shop vac-

It sounds like you are describing the same device that Jerry
mentioned. I went to the Amazon web site to see what it was like and
I was intrigued. I also saw the Porter Cable sander that Amazon has
for $400+. That made the Magna product sound even better.

I'll have to give this some thought. Thanks for the pointer.
