Is this the best upgrade for a single stage dust collector?

Check out performance updates here:    • How is the upgraded dust collector perform...  

The Wen 3403 Dust Collector is a great entry level dust collector. I did not enjoy emptying the bags of dust, so it was time for an upgrade. After 2 months of research, I built an upgraded dust collector using the bones of the Wen and a bunch of others. See how I fit the Oneida Dust Deputy and Wynn Environmental Filter into a two-stage system. This could also work great for the Harbor Freight Dust Collector.
