Description
This is probably an oddly specific part, but it came in super handy for my shop and it may come in handy for yours. We have a 12" Bosch gliding chop saw GCM12SD that we connect to our dust collector (AKA shopvac) with the Rigid brand car cleaning accessory hose kit.
The problem: The friction fit of the hose didn't really hold well in the saw. If the hose was bumped, it would fall out.
The solution: an adapter that mounts to the hose and uses the posts on the dust port to keep the hose from falling off. Simple!
This a 3 part print. Two halves clamp around the hose end, and the 3rd part screws into the clamp giving you a latching end on the hose. See pictures if I've confused you :)
This might work with other vacuum hoses of the size, and on other saws. Can't confirm any of that...I just know it works for my setup. :)
