A slightly different approach using the 2-stick fireboard method. I was trying to use the Y of the gap of the fireboard, but ended up improvising using a drilled hole from a previous failed attempt. Although, I was successful with the concept when I practiced it earlier (off camera). I was also figuring out a better way for air to get to the dust pile.

I was trying to use unused materials, but apparently chose poorly, but it's not necessarily a bad thing as I got practice figuring out how to eventually get success when things didn't go according to plan.
