Vacuum hose adapters

thingiverse

These adapters make it easy to connect a vacuum hose to different tools in my workshop. A compact canister vacuum provides the suction power for these adapters, and its 10' hose is attached using a bracket made by a 3D printer. The hose is then adapted for various equipment with magnetic connectors that allow for simple plugging and unplugging depending on what I'm working on. Parts: Vacuum connector - connects the 10' hose to the canister vacuum. Hose connector - connects the 10' hose to a magnetic hose connector. Sand connector - connects the hose connector to a 2.5" port on my belt sander. Loc-Line connector - connects the hose to loc-line, which is anchored securely. Generic connector - a template that mates with the hose connector. Print Settings: Printer Brand: Prusa Rafts: No rafts were used for printing these parts. Supports: No supports were needed due to the design of these adapters. Resolution: A resolution of 0.2mm was used for all prints. Infill: An infill of 20% was used in most cases, but the ball-joint piece required a more flexible material, so it was printed with PETG instead of PLA.
