I'm going to modify my Harbor Freight dust collector into a two stage and I'm looking for some insight into the best components to purchase.
I believe the 1st upgrade is to the impeller, assuming you can find one, I think the recommendation is for the Rikon or Wen which will significantly increase the air flow.
The 2nd is for a an Oneida Dust deputy or similar for separation, but I have a question about sizing. They make the Dust Deputy in 3 different sizes, 4", 5" and 6", which is the best option to go with???
Does a 6" work with the DD and is it the best for flow. I believe the DD also has a 6" take off so that seems to make the most sense for the upgrade but would love some input on that.
The 3rd main component is the filter, I'm not certain if there's a particular model # just that it's efficient. I was leaning towards one of the these, does anyone have any experience with them??

I've seen a few of the YouTube videos and the modifications that have been made but was hoping for some real life experience. Any input would be appreciated.
Thanks.
