Building my first full shop dust collection system and taking Bill Pentz advice about taking the 6" runs all the way to the machine as much as possible. When I looked for a 6" bell mouth to enlarge the opening on my cabinet saw the only one I found was a Nordfab and I about choked on the price. As I started thinking about all the other machines, I wasn't finding much in the way of 6" hose fittings. One thing I did find was a 6" x 4" x 4" plastic wye that I plan to use with my drum sander but the 6" end is female so I have a find a coupling to connect it to a flex hose.

Other machines I plan to connect with 6" flex hose

Chop saw (tent)
Lathe
15" Planer
12" Joiner
Router table
37" drum sander
Cabinet saw

I would just appreciate any sources and or DIY ideas to help me on my way.

Thanks,

David
