I made the Thien baffle for mine years ago and love it. I used to vent out a window, but moved to a larger shop in August and got this bag: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B002DSC09Q/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_9IRfzbVFB0KRG It worked just fine, and stayed pretty clean from day one. I know it's a different style bag / setup, but just my 2¢ using a 3 micron bag. The inside is now kinda caked with crud, but the airflow is still strong after I empty it.
New DC in my shop this week means the Harbor Freight machine will retire to just floor cleaning and drill press duty, but it's a great machine for the money.

I think that the only part of the HF unit I'm going to use is the motor and impeller. I'm going to bite the bullet and probably get a large Oneida dust deputy with 4" ports and I'm going to use this 3 micron bag with no other plastic bag: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B002DSC09Q
I've got shop air filtration units to get down to 1 micron. What micron rating does the Wynn canister your referring to have?
I'm still slightly debating whether to spend the $150 or so for the large Oneida cyclone or if I should just go with this lid: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0035YD23K
I wonder how much of a performance difference there is between the Oneida and those trash can lids.
