Bosch Slider Saw Vacuum Adapter

thingiverse

I just got my hands on that new Bosch 12" sliding compound miter saw (GCM12SD), and I need to find a way to attach my 2.5" shopvac hoses to it. So I decided to whip up something myself. Bosch does sell adapters, but this one might be even better! :)\r\n\r\nI designed it in Freecad. That means it's fully customizable; making changes or alternative stl files will be a breeze. So post a comment if you have different size vacuum hoses you'd like to see an STL for, or if you have another tool with a similar style 'rotating latch' that has slightly different dimensions.\r\n\r\nKeep in mind that supports are required.\r\n\r\nEnjoy\r\n\r\nAlso check out my feet for the Bosch saw stand here:\r\nhttps://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3260456\r\n\r\nBy the way, I use one of these automatic vacuum switches with this thing:\r\n\r\nhttps://www.amazon.com/DGC-PRODUCTS-Intelligent-Autoswitch-Eliminating/dp/B005ELWUWG/ref=mp_s_a_1_4?keywords=vacuum+switch&qid=1574060478&sprefix=vacuum+sw&sr=8-4\r\n\r\nYou can make one with a 'duino, relay, and hall sensor, but the premade ones are worth the time saved.
