I have soem metal dust collection blast gates I bought from Lee Valley and they are made very nicely. But does anyone make a metal gate that
had a longer "lip" to fasten the hose to? I have a problem with the hose slipping off. I try to tighten the clamp as tight as I can without breaking it as I have a few. Or has anyone tried adding a no-slip tape to the "lip"
It is odd that the metal gates have a 1" lip and the plastic usually have 2-3" lips. Can't find the logic in that! The plactic gates just seem like they would break easily and I haven't found any that are self cleaning. Any suggestions??
