Patrick, I got one of these from Woodcraft and put it in my shop along with 30 gallon galvanized trash can. It works pretty well. It largely traps the chips from the planer and lets the fine stuff on through to the dust collector. The only annoyance that I have had with it is that occasionally the inlet elbow will fall down into the trash can. It is held in by a friction fit. It probably would be better to simply glue it in.
