Yardy, is that pickup tube 1/2 or 3/8" ? I'm doing something very similar to yours, and seeing what others are doing is very helpful. Your idea of eliminating the filth trap in the old handles is one definately worth things about, as we have serious dust issues during the latter part of the dry.
Any reason you didn't go the welded fitting over the bulkhead method?
