Shop Vac Chip Catcher/Separator

Tired of cleaning out the Shop Vac filters?

This is something like the Cyclone separators used to catch the big stuff before it ruins your Shop Vac filter. This worked good enough that I thought it should be here on Thingiverse.

Fits the standard Shop Vac hose connectors at 58mm. Mine were pretty snug. Only one 5 gallon bucket in the picture but I'll be adding a second one inverted with the bottoms cut out and taped together to increase capacity to about 7 gallons. That should get me through the big jobs on the Planer.
