Default Dust Collector ground wiring.

Finally got my DC all ducted using 4" PVC and flex hose.. I connected everything together using bare/stranded grounding wire wound on the outside (a couple wraps per pipe) of all the pipes.. Is this enough, or should I also run wire through the inside?
I've noticed that how it is has already relieved the pipes of static electricity..

Wife says it looks like a sewer in the garage.. I call it a habitrail..

Mike I bought a small collector and I ran the wire inside and outside like the instructions said on the back of the grounding wire package I bought at Woodcraft. Check the images below.
