There are many good dust boot designs for X-Carve on Thingiverse, but I want to design one that will allow me to add other options in the future. This is a complete dust collection solution for my X-Carve with standard spindle. The dust boot height can be adjusted slightly to accommodate different depths. Shop vacuum connector can be easily removed for dust boot height adjustment. Dust boot should also fit Z-Axis with quiet cut 300W spindle upgrade, but I don't have one to try. Also, I designed an optional fan support to keep my spindle running a bit cooler since my original spindle just failed. This system can be used with cyclonic dust collection or without, but it is good to have one to avoid cleaning out shop vacuum after every cut. Once installed, there is enough spacing between spindle carriage and dust boot for wrench access for milling bit replacement. I have been running my X-Carve with this setup for many hours with great result.
Future upgrade (if I ever get to it):
Replace Brush Door Sweep with McMaster Carr Easy-Cut Strip Brush when I get to order one.http://www.mcmaster.com/#7900t5/=z1hche
Additional mount for IP Camera as add on to fan mount.
Redesign Cyclone_dust_collector_to_bucket_adapter.svg to be used without lid.
