As for catching the shavings, I did it with the filter element out and stuffed a pant leg (not the pants I was wearing! ) Down the inside of the canister. Did my drilling and tapping and then yanked the pants out which carried all but a small amount of the shavings out. I then used shop towels to completely swab the inside of the canister clean and dry.

Lance: As for brand of tiolet paper, I'm using Scott 1000, it's single ply x 1000 sheet...
