RE : RE : [Homebrew_PCBs] Re: what if - drilling under water

2005-07-24 by Robert Hedan

Ooops, I see now you've already discussed this idea.

One note, if you have the shopvac higher relative to the drill, you can use
gravity to move the water, no pump required.  Control the downflow of water
with a ball valve.

I would also make sure the DIY outlet on the side of the shopvac is below
the waterline, to keep floating dust in the shopvac.

I'm sure there's a way of using a shopvac without any fancy modifications.

Simple, use the water along with a water-type shopvac (I think they all
are).

The water stops dirt particles from going airborn, and the shopvac stops the
water from going anywhere.
