    DP Dust/Chip Collection

    Looking to add a collection port to my 17"Jet DP. Anyone got a solution that works? I hate having to sweep the table after each hole. Thanks

    I use some locline from Woodcraft. The locline fits over 2 1/2" hose fittings. I fit two 2 1/2" fittings back to back over a piece of wood . The wood has a couple of slots cut into it to allow hose clamps to fit through. The hose clamps attach the wood to the drill press column. The hose clamps are left a bit loose so the wood can move. I've had this setup for a couple of years now and it works very well.
