Dust extractor for Dewalt 707 mitre saw

Last crawled date: 4 years, 2 months ago

This is an adapter for connecting your vacuum cleaner hose to your Dewalt 707 mitre saw. It may or may not fit other models, but it is easily modified in Freecad. The fit for the vacuum hose is based on a conical pipe with 34 to 36 mm diameter over 50 mm length. Also easy to change.
There is a locking pin and a slot for a piece of metal which sticks out just below the dust outlet on the saw.
I printed this in PLA with 15% fill, but I anticipate it may break when banged up in the workshop. So perhaps more fill, and i.e. ABS is safer. Remember to print with the circular section facing downward.
The locking pin is a standalone object and will need to be selected in Freecad together with the main part in order to get everything included in the STL file.
BTW, creds to "quick61" for giving me a great starting point in the forum thread https://forum.freecadweb.org/viewtopic.php?t=16197
