Some of you have asked what the clips are.
These clips have two advantages.
First: some customers do not have the luxury of having a designated vacuum hose for their cnc. Therefore the clips help with the ease of unattaching the hose from the boom.
Secondly: the clips have additional holes/clips to hold water lines if you go the spindle route.
If you just buy the boom without the clips you will zip tie (comes with purchase) the vacuum hose to the boom through specific holes in the boom’s joints.
Clip Sizing: Fein clips are 1 3/8"
Please let me know if there are any other sizes that I need to provide
Rowdy, I purchased a 3 hp spindle; 80mm; for my Forman. I expect to be using 1/2 in bits frequently. Is the 2.5 in dust boot going to be enough or would I be better off with a 4 in hose? Do you have options for either?

I think you can go either way and be happy. However if you are talking about the most efficient. Then with the right dust collector a 4” can be a beast.
I have looked on your web site and esty store did not see the 4 inch. Maybe I didnt know what to look for or what I was seeing. I will also be getting the water cooling clips for both axis’s. Could you send me the link ps I am a newbee to cnc. I think I just saw the clips you spoke of. I would also need the dust boot or whatever the thing that encloses to spindle bit and shroud.the hose connect to.
