I'm curious about what types of buckets work best with dust separators to avoid them caving in due to strong vacuum suction. Has anyone found a good option? I'm considering cutting the top part off a Homer bucket to fit it snugly inside another bucket to strengthen it. Does anyone have experiences or suggestions on this?

Nesting two five-gallon buckets together actually works quite well! It may sound a bit off, but it holds up under suction without collapsing.

I’ve seen that suggestion elsewhere, but wouldn't the inner bucket still cave in since that’s where it seals? That’s why I was thinking about cutting and reinforcing it.
