I recently picked up a smaller dust collector and have been working out the connections to my saw, a 21829. I used to attach my shop vac to the 2 1/2 port on my guard. I tested out some different hoses & fittings and found that a 4" hose up to a 2 1/8" reducer got me the best flow at the guard. I didn't have this funnel fitting when testing. I was using a 4" to 2 1/2" quick fitting & a 2 1/4 to 2 1/4 fitting. I picked up a couple of the funnels and some other fittings Wed, but I haven't had time to try them yet. I'm planning to run two 4" hoses to the saw and use two of the funnel connectors. One at the back and the other on the guard. Those top hose will switch over to my router fence. I still need to make a detachable bottom enclosure for the router.
Would a Shark Guard with the 4" port work better? Is there a noticeable difference?
