Drill Press Dust Collection

thingiverse

This is a holder I created for a 2.5" hose that I could mount to my drill press for dust collection when drilling. The mount swivels in the middle to any angle needed. This is accomplished with a nylon washer between the halves of the mount. There is a 1/4-20 bolt in the middle with washers and a locknut to keep enough tension so the holder doesn't move on its own. The hose mount part uses 1/4-20 bolts with some little knobs I had lying around. You'll need Three 1/4-20 by 2" bolts, two 1/4" regular washers and one nylon, plus a 1/4" locknut. You can opt to use knows like I did or some more 1/4" nuts. The only other piece needed is a hose clamp large enough to fit around the drill press column. 2.5" worked for me.
