I received my JDS Dust Force dust collector yesterday, got it assembled, and fired it up for the first time. I haven't even hooked it to a tool yet, but I'm already envisioning where to run duct work! :)Unfortunately, I've already run into my first hurdle. I have a 10" Delta miter saw, and I've measured the port as 1-1/2" ID. Naturally, a 1-1/4" shop vac hose is too small, and virtually every adapter I've seen steps from 1-1/4" to 2".Ideally, I'd like to run a short length of 1-1/2" hose (if I could find it) from the saw up to the wall, then adapt to the 4" main duct.Any ideas where I can get a 1-1/2" hose to fit the saw, and an appropriate adapter to connect to the 4"?Also, does anyone make rigid "antistatic" pvc pipes for duct work. I'd prefer smooth pipe over the flexible corrugated stuff, but no one seems to make it. I'd use regular PVC water pipe, but I've heard static buildup is a potential danger.Thanks,Anthony

Why wouldn't you put the hose on the outside of the port? I wouldthink sticking the hose inside the port would increase the risk ofclogging and would make it tough to keep the hose actually connectedto the saw.-Nathan

Of course it is. But that sequence that so graphically demonstrates "DAGS" is slicker than greased owl shit. Dare I as where you found it? I'd not see it before and it's great!

I don't doubt that it's been around that long. It's just that I've never seen it before. That's a keeper. Thanks!
