90° Hose Adapter for PwnCNC Dust Boot

thingiverse

I have a Shapeoko3 CNC router that has a wall behind it which interferes with the 2.5-inch vacuum hose on my self-printed PwnCNC v2 dust boot from Thingiverse. To fix this issue, I created a 90-degree elbow to replace the original straight 2.5-inch hose adapter. This part clicks into place of the old part and points the hose toward the hose bracket mounted to the Z-drive. This allows the hose to be routed more directly upward to avoid tangling of the hose. This works with the v2 version of the PwnCNC dust boot and should work with the v3 as well. It is designed for use with a 2.5-inch flexible hose. Since I made this, I notice that PwnCNC has created some elbows of his own on Thingiverse, but I prefer mine since it offers a smoother path for the dust chips to follow, with less chance of clogging (at least in theory).
