This is a cyclone seprator to turn a shop vac into a two stage separation system to avoid clogging your filter. I still need to make adaptors for my shop vac and a mount for a waste bucket. Hole diameters are all 58.5mm which fits a 2.25" OD connection. Files for those may not be up when you see this however you may have to do your own anyway to get a good airtight fit for your vac/hose waste bucket solution. The top (wide end) has a lip that should be possible to make something for it to rest on.
To keep weight under 1kg I used 2 perimeters and 5% infill. 5 solid base layers and top layers. Print hot as strength is important... a bit of over extrusion might not be a bad idea as you want it air tight as possible. Unless you have a large diameter nozzel etc... it will take a long time to print. At around 50mm a second it took me around 70 hours at .2 layers.
