Dust Fixture for Jet Spindle Sander (Benchtop)

thingiverse

The Jet benchtop spindle sander features a 2" dust port, intended for use with a shop vac. I wanted to hook mine up to a full size dust collector which has a 4" flex-hose connection. Instead of choking the 4" line all the way down to 2", I replaced the dust fixture with this one, which features a larger 3" port. You still need an adapter to expand to 4" but this should greatly improve dust collection efficiency when hooking up to a 4" system. To install, you'll need to use a hand saw to cut notches out of the top corners in order to allow clearance for two bolts. Please note, I'm a 3D printing noob and there are many ways this model could be improved. So please, feel free to improve it. :)
