I wanted to see how effective this would be with mdf, so last night I washed the vacuum filter bag. Turned it on this morning, and heaps more suction..........and yes, the pail promptly collapsed.

Need to get a heavier wall pail, or a 20lt metal paint can.

Hi chrisb691, Couple of suggestions : see if you can rustle up a metal garbage can, or better still, there are around some 20-30 litre heavy plastic drums, usually dark blue, barrel shaped with black top and bottom. They shouldn't implode with vacuum.

It's 8 years since chrisb691 posted on this thread so probably achieved what he wanted to do by now. He's still around though.
