Thank you. I see the mistake. I had supports disabled. What material did you use?
Mine is Elegoo Rapid PETG since I already had it in the AMS. Not much stress on this part so PLA would be fine Im sure.
Yes, I place the 4" side down and added auto tree support like Calvin suggested.
Just an FYI. I spent the weekend printing the 4" adaptor with clip. Microsoft felt the need to reboot my computer in the middle of the night when the job was only 1/2 done. I took the failed print (started with the small end first) and tried it. Low and behold, it was too small and would not fit over the dust port. I had to scale the design to 100.1% to get it to fit. Restarted the print and now everything works. I was able to get my 4" hose to stretch over the large end even with the up-scale. Maybe printers vary, but I suggest you print 1/2" of the small end first and try it before you do the entire print.
Hey Steve, I’m curious, what kind of printer do you have that requires your computer to be running to print with it. I’m just asking because I’ve not seen anything like that in quite some time.
It’s a very old MakerGear M2. I don’t use it or the computer very often, which explains the reboot. I just ordered a new PRUSA “Core One” but it won’t arrive for a few weeks.
That one has been around for a while.
Onefinity - I too have experienced the Suck It SM catching on the Z carriage, causing a Z - fault a number of times, …
I understand you need the thickness for strength, but maybe bevel the upper/lower rear edges.???.
Adding my own mock up, having the elite foreman and the ATC dust boot, the original wasn’t tall enough to clear the motors / heat sinks at the top. This leads to the 4” dust hose resting and melting on the z-axis spindle motor….
Bambolab cut, made connectors with hex plugs, they are not symmetrical so make sure you align them right before gluing.
Also added the mount I enlarged and made taller.

Hi you have 3.67 to 2.5
do you mean 2.67 to 2.5
I just tried to order this kit it’s $30 but the shipping is $40 so total was $70 to my place in hawaii think I’ll pass
just so you know these work for the suckit sm dust boot and a 2.5inch hose. Amazon.com: Shop Vac Vacuum (2 Pack) 2-1/2" Threaded Hose End # SVR-4515-2pk : Tools & Home Improvement
They are tighter than a bullfrogs buttocks to the hose, but they work well.
sorry i replied to wrong post i was talking about the brushes on the suckit dust boot. I looked at onefinity web site and found those for $30 but the shipping was $40 so not for me. thanks for your reply
I understand. I will look for better brush inserts that are stiffer. than what onefinity is currently using. they must exist somewhere. if so, I will find them. The longer brush inserts onefinity is offering at way too flimsy I agree. and very expensive as well. perhaps they will with their much greater recourses can find and upgrade them. if you look on Etsy they seem to have many varieties of brushes different lengths and stiffness as well. and that was just a very cursory search. good luck on your CNDC adventure.
I seem to recall someone posted a link to ones from Grainger that will fit.
