Dust collection attachment for Dremel 565 / 566

thingiverse

The Dremel attachments 566 and 565 feature a port that to me looks like a attachment point for a vacuum cleaner (2nd picture). I found however that Dremel does not sell anything that connects to it. So, I decided to make something that does! The attachment posted connects to a, in my case, Karcher vacuum cleaner hose and should fit other brands as well. The inner diameter is 35.4mm and tapers in to 34.4mm to provide a snug fit to the vacuum cleaner hose. I do recommend to not run the vacuum cleaner at it's highest speed as the attachment can start to whistle due to the small diameter of the dust collection port. I also posted the part that just fits in the dust collection port so anyone can create their own attachment. It will print in about 3 minutes so it's a nice piece to do a test fit with. The parts were designed in Sketchup, skp-files are also included. Print Settings Printer: Vertex K8400 Rafts: No Supports: Yes Resolution: 0.2 mm layers Infill: 25% Notes: I used only support above the print bed.
