Ah, scrap wood and duct tape would have done the same thing with your existing hose
Never forget about duct tape and wd40 !

I've been waiting almost 2 weeks for this to come from Rockler. It goes on the end of a dust collector hose so its easier to move from machine to machine. It fits the hose fine, but way too big for the machine flanges, I'm going to have to see if there is an adapter or make one.
I do like the handle though.

Thanks Matt, they sent me a catalog too, just haven't had the chance to look it up yet.Greg, they do make an adapter. I've used them - I like that hose setup.

Today I recieved from @Tony a cool little seam ripper kit, some assembly required, lol. We had a conversation awhile ago and he offered to send me a finished one, I said what's the fun in that! I wanna make one, so.........thanks brother!

Another package today. The mail truck stopped in front of our house instead of at the mail box. I walked out to save the carrier a trip to the porch. She handed me the box box in this condition. I said that it looks like it has already been opened. She shrugged and drove off. It contained cleaning products for the wife. If it had contained whisky the box would have been empty.

I got a box from you once and it was destroyed by the USPS. Remember that?Must be y'alls area. I've only had one that was crushed a little but no damage really. Hopefully I didn't speak too soon
Or replace them!!!Gotta be up that way. Every box but one has been good. Y'all need to treat your mail people better!!!
Ugh. Today the blind bearing puller set that I'd ordered - and waited nearly two weeks to get here - arrived. The bearing that I needed it to remove has an ID of 10mm. The blind bearing puller was listed as 10mm as the smallest size it could work with. Ok, that works. Got it today. Nope! Nowhere close! I could tell when I opened it up that it wouldn't work. Measured it. Smallest collet/claw set/whatever you want to call it measured at 13mm. Huge difference!
And I still can't start putting my RAS back together until I can get that bearing out...
