Dust Deputy setup
Morning All, I have purchase a Dust Deputy which has 2"-2 1/4" inlet/outlet to connect to my Fein Dustex 25 which has a standard 1 1/2" inlet hose. The problem is, I am having great difficulty finding reducers or some sort of setup to connect it all together. Any advice appreciated.

One thing I did with my 2 systems, dust deputy and super dust deputy, was I used a lot of duct tape. I would suggest to get some PVC pipe connectors from bunnings. As long as the 2 components have similar diameters you join them using duct tape. It works for me and I hope it helps.

Thanks, Wongo. I have done exactly that but not overly happy with such an untidy solution; functional but not pretty

Have a looky at Oneida's US site, might find something.
I know the right angle adapter does fit onto a Festool ct36 and 36 diameter hose.
Hope that helps.

Maybe something like this might do the trick
Stepped Reducer : CARBA-TECThose were the droids I was looking for.

Have u tried either a plumbing or electrical store? Either may have a PVC adaptor that fits. I found one for my Makita drop saw recently that fits where the dust bag goes.

Have a look the fittings I used to connect my Dust Deputy to a standard 32inch vacuum hose here
Also, make sure there is adequate air flow - see my experiences here with collapsing buckets
The DD outlet that goes to the appliance, it is a slightly different size to the vacuum connection outlet, so I squeezed an industrial vacuum cleaner hose inside the 2" outlet - nice tight fitregards,
