DIY hose adapter / coupler for the BOSCH GCM8 SJL

Ғылым және технология

I don't want to spend 60€ or more on a coupler / adapter for the Bosch GCM 8 SJL to connect it to my dust collection system. So I build one myself!

    Can you please also share the solid files? I need a different diameter and I'd like to use your design and adapt it slightly. Regards Darko

    What i did for my tools was to carve a 2x2 into a round plug the size I needed. I then heated a PP pipe and slid it over the wooden plug. That has allowed me to convert even a 30mm od pipe to 40mm hose. I would definitely have preferred a 3d printer but haven't gotten around to building it yet hehe.

    Hey, this was awesome job :) Also great to see CAD SW in action. One question though - how are the cust with GCM 8 SJL? is this machine precise? For some DIY hobby usage but still semi-professional?

    @LetsBuildSomething I love the design and I'd like to print a similar connector. Can you please share the CAD files so I can adjust the hose diameter? If would help me a lot!

    I have the same saw and the same issue. Great job you did. Will you make me one (sell) or will you share the 3D file, please?

    Un trabajo perfecto! No dispongo de impresora. Podrías fabricar uno para mi y yo te lo pago. Hace mucho tiempo que busco algo así y no lo encuentro.

    This test is only if you want to saw with a precision miter saw. (not for rough work). Tips and Test: Very important if you would like to saw with precision. (avoid torsion as much as possible)! Always choose a Miter saw with a handle positioned in a vertical line above the saw blade. Everything must be aligned, slide rails, handle, and saw blade,it is much better this way the blade will not tilt. Because there is some torsion in the aluminum housing . And choose an engine with softstart on it to prevent wear of the gear and worm shaft. It is very important that everything is aligned. Here are some examples to show how the handle must be positioned above the blade. Bosch gcm 800 sj / Bosch gcm 8 sjl / Evolution rage 3 / FESTOOL KS 60 / Bosch GCM 8 SDE / FESTOOL KS 60 E KAPEX / Metabo KGSV 72 Xact / Bosch PCM 8 SD / Hitachi C10FSH. (This also is the case with the Miter saw without the slide rails). (If you want). You can test it yourself at home if there is torsion in the aluminum housing. Step-1. First you make a saw cut from +-5 mm deep in to a flat piece of wood about +- 20 mm thick to this with the normal handle positioned on the right side of the Miter saw (the wood it will remain in place until the test is completed). Step-2. Then repeat this by pushing the saw blade down with your hand (finger) on the aluminum protective cover were the saw blade is cased in. Just now only do this without the running engine. Step-3. Now you can see if the saw blade will be positioned in or next to the saw cut. If the saw blade is (+- 0,2 / 0,5 mm) next to the saw cut then there is torsion in the aluminum housing (test is completed). Step-4. therefor it is much better to choose a Miter saw with the handle positioned vertical in line above the saw blade. Conclusion: how further away the handle is from the saw blade how more chance of torsion in the aluminum housing.(don't go for that). Also with a cheap slide miter saw it is still better the handgriff in line a above the saw blade than on the right side. Maybe they will make it someday then we have a winner...

    I would love to print your adapter. Do you have a link to the files. Also if that is not an option. The commercial one. Which is that?

    If the hose or tube doesen't fit into the connector of the machine, you have to convert it, so it is called a convertor. btw with a piece of ht-tube (ht-Rohr), a handsaw or so and tape i convert all to all. Ok, your 3-d-printer beats me. Cheerio aus dem Schwabenland.
