Ok then here’s how to make your own

For 25 quid, it isn't worth making one. Are the ones with a motor in just to boost the suction then I assume

Blimey, that is alot of work! Trust me, buy one!

TBH I sent the wrong link at first because what you actually need is a simple seperator which you found anyway. I’m not saying you’re a tight arse but I then sent you the diy link. If you watch it to the end it explains very well the benefits of using a seperator.

Definitely something I need to get. Although being a tight arse with plastic pots always available and pipe fittings in stock I may well lash something together.

I’ll get the machine mart one. Got an anhydrite to sand in January, 30m ish.

Do you find much difference between the cheap £5 grinding cups and the £40 + ones such as ats sell, £80 even for the 180mm

 

[Qwerty]

Grab a few cheapies. They aren't bad to be fair. I killed my few cheapies on a s&c screed that had a huge belly in it

Imo you’ll only be able to gauge that if you’re doing a lot of it and spending enough money on it they you’re asking the question.

I've got a 9 inch grinder with a cowling attached to a single motor industrial dust extractor which I use for pretty much every floor I tile whether it's simply grinding the surface to remove latience , contaminants or taking high spots down.
Checkout a floor preperation site like pwm or surface preperation
