dust extraction for bandsaw

[jow104]

Is it practical to use my triton dust extraction connected to my bandsaw?
I also need a reduction socket from 4" to the triton pipework any recommendations appreciated.

Yes, you can use the Triton dust bucket and vacuum cleaner provided that you modify the dust bucket into a mini cyclone as per my modification. For details do a search.

To connect to the bandsaw outlet any homemade adaptor sealed with duct tape will do.

An othe usefull adaptor is the rubber seal that connects your sistern pipe to the ceramic bowl of your toilet.

they come in diferent sizes of course

or get a pvc plumbing adaptor from 100mm to 50mm pipe. not perfect but close.
