Is it just me or are the Jtech laser mount and Suckit Dust Boot incompatible? Didn’t notice at first but when the spindle goes low, say for a Vcarve, the laser mount crashes into the dust boot and, well you know the rest. Not sure if anyone has a solution other than toss the Suckit, kind of a hard pill to swallow at what it costs.
I ended up buy a new boot when I cracked mine. Its $27.50 USD plus tax and shipping. I need some other accessories, I know its hard to swallow having to buy more parts again.

Damaging the dust boot was a bummer for sure, but I just glued it back together. It’s not pretty but it still sucks dust, lol. After messing around with it for a while, I came up with a solution. I just removed two of the 4 screws that hold the laser mount on and slid the mount all the way up, securing it with only 2 screws, seems perfectly stable with the laser on and doesn’t interfere with the dust boot.
PWN CNC makes a rear boot. I use it and it works well. Using a shop vac though.
