Dust Right

[Luckbox]

Ok this is for all you Dust Right owners out there. As you can see from the pic I have added a piece of plywood to my dust collector to make an onboard storage system. My question is has any found a good way to store the hose? I had though of getting some pvc pipe and cut a slot in it and use that as a holder but at lowes it goes from 4” to 6” pipe. Really like to fine something closer to 4 ½” inner diameter. Had found some metal ductwork that was open the entire length but it was thin metal and was afraid it would cut the hose. Any ideas would be helpful.

I'd just screw three long pieces of plywood together, add a bottom, and screw that to your plywood.

I don't own the system, but I read your thread anyway.

Rockler has a hose storage rack as part of the system:

Perhaps you could use their design for some inspriation.

I spent too much on rockler's holder. It didn't work the way I wanted either. The hose would fall off any time I tried moving my cart. I ended up doing something much like cgallery suggests on my Jet 650. I still used the holder I already had and put in in a 3 sided box.. It's really just a wire metal frame with a couple magnets. Had I known how simple it was I would have just used some magnets and skipped the purchase.

The swivel fitting they came out with has been great. I put one at the end of the rigid duct going to the Dust right hose. It certainly makes putting the hose up much easier.

Mine is a little bit more utilitarian then that (aka I threw it together as fast as I possibly could) but is in the same vein:



Just a 2x6 with 2x6's screwed into the long sides, then a makeshift leg so it tilts a little bit.
