Hi guys,
I've got an old Hoover Aqua Plus shop vac (from a lady who apparently never opened the bucket) for a really killer price (close to 15 dollars) and it still works beautifully.
Now I know it works in both modes - dry and wet. Do away with the filter, and we can collect fluids. However, I've got a plan to turn it into something similar to what the Rainbow vacuums did: capture dust with a water base. I've been more comfortable with the Rainbow vacuums; they do work better to capture dust.
Will it work if I install some sort of a baffle on the air inlet so that dry dust immediately sticks to the water? I've drawn the design to illustrate the concept.
Your thoughts and suggestions are appreciated. Thanks.
