Latest Woodcraft flyer has Oneida’s new Dust Deputy 2.5 which is a little larger than the original. For $55, you only get the plastic cyclone, no lid, gasket, nor hardware. Supposed to offer better air flow and that seems to be true.

Mostly, I use crubber for lining vise jaws and it has been a while since I used it to actually make a gasket.

The bucket and lid are from a Benjamin Moore store.

I used the lid port for adding tints to mount a 10-bit desk lamp from Dollar.25 Tree pointing downward using hot-melt glue.

I power the vacuum via switching a power strip so I plugged the lamp into the same strip. Enough lumens so that I now can see the level of the debris in the bucket.

Next step will be to gut the lamp base and make a custom housing like @creasman did. Once upon a time I would have gotten a box from Radio Shack for that.
