They use the same material for 4" Dia. as they do all the way up to 24" Dia. and bigger. They use the same picture as well so getting a refund. I'm leaning towards horse trough for next attempt.

Reading 'specs' (when present) helps prevent that!

That said I cringe when 'specs' tell me what size box it comes in and little else useful.

Wow, the custom bench and tool storage features here are really impressive! Then I saw your pristine Mark VII with its own wood accents in the background, and was further impressed! Great work…

JPG- only spec was Dia. + pic, I should have called as I ended up calling to get a refund anyway. Waste of time but I’m retired so that’s something I hope I have plenty of.

jpdalton- thanks for the kind words

Up skirt and down skirt pics + pic of pretty sturdy watering bucket, 2’ Dia., I hope to make into dust shroud

More sturdy == harder to modify == better results.

In addition to having 'more' time, acquiring 'more patience' helps one's mind set.

Patience is very much a learning process for me but I agree with you.

Got everything cut and it came out really clean, gorilla taped edges till rubber gas line comes in. Used a nibbles to cut out bottom and a Kett saw for horizontal cuts. Both worked really well with right set up. Still need to work out mounting and dust port locations.

Finished up dust shroud and trying to figure out best port locations. I have one on top to hopefully keep the finer dust away from me. Thinking of just a 4” hose and a smaller “big gulp” at bottom. My thinking is it would catch a lot at position shown + easy to move around once in awhile similar to vacuum or a better location than shown. Look forward to any comments or ideas.
