    The key thing I learned in the video is that stacking magnets can increase the pull strength. Combine this with the overhead hose and you have a super brilliant idea. Keep these videos coming!

    This is one of those ideas that people smack their heads for not thinking of it. Simply genius. I bought some magnets recently bc I plan to build a removable dust collection enclosure for my Delta 36-725T2, but I will now build this first. I’ve been thinking of suspending hoses in my garage so they’re out of the way and my wife can still pull her car in when I’m done working, but hadn’t thought of magnets there. You should consider productizing and selling these. You’d have a market.

    This is a brilliant idea, and solves two problems I was struggling with in my small workshop. I have fixed collector and am just installing a new configuration which has four machines that will drop off a single duct. I was working through various multi-way blast gate ideas, which were either large and complicated or used up way too much wall space. Your magnetic connection solution is perfect; I can mount two thin metal sheets on the wall on either side of the duct, magnetically attach the four flexible ducts to the wall, and then attach whichever one I need. That’s effectively the same speed as a multi-way blast gate, AND it means all the tools can be easily moved around as needed wi5out having to disconnect them. Your flip top solution was also brilliant and unique. Keep them coming!

    An incredibly simple solution for a problem we all have to deal with. The whole hose setup is something I never would have thought of. Its genius and I will be copying it if you don't mind. My dust collector is in a 4x6 shed I built onto the back of my shop and it connects through the upper wall to pipes I have running on 3 walls with dropdowns to each tool. I've bee struggling with a way to have an overhead hose to use at my assembly table and this idea of yours may just do the trick!! Rockler has ceiling tracks with hooks for the hose, but it is too expensive for me. I have to pick and choose what I buy carefully as well. Well done, thanks for sharing your ideas with us!!!

    After viewing your video, I was impressed with your solution to a needless, asinine problem foisted upon us by machinery companies. You even make a point of noting that most of your machines are sold under the same label. However, they don’t bother to standardize the vacuum connections. The problem is maddening! My shop conditions and equipment are much different than yours. However, by utilizing your magnetic coupling idea, I can improve my situation immensely. I have a large workshop (30’ X 65’) and have a 3 hp. Oneida dust collector with 10-inch ductwork eventually necked down to either 6-inch or 4-inch ductwork. I try to utilize 6-inch connections whenever possible. For example: I have a 10-inch Grizzly table saw that came with a 4-inch dust port. I removed that and cut-in a 6-inch hole and affixed it with a wooden, magnetic connector of your design. I then ran a short piece of 6-inch flex hose to connect the table saw to the main ductwork. The setup works great . . . with one exception. I deviated from using the magnets you did and went with a stronger magnet. I did this because I did not want to use 16 magnets just to make a connection. I suspect that you ran into the same issue that I have over the years - over estimating the holding power of your chosen magnet. It seems that over the years, the magnets I have ordered for various projects just did not have the holding power I expected. The load rating is figured by a vertical pull. My problem always involved the holding power to keep it from sliding down a vertical surface - not a vertical pull situation like in your overhead sections of pipe. I am betting that this is probably why you had to use multiple magnets on your duct connectors. The magnets I chose have a rating of 6o-pounds and are 1-inch in diameter. www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07R8C4N43/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o03_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 I use one magnet in each corner - four magnets per side. These are magnets incased in a steel cup which I simply epoxied into a 1-inch hole, just deep enough to keep the magnet below the wood surface. When I would put the two connectors together, they would hold well, but the magnetic forces would shift the assembly slightly off-center. It worked well, but the sight of a 3/8-inch offset really bugged me. With the magnets being encased in a steel cup, there is no way to play with the polarity. As an experiment, I made a couple of wooden connectors with a four slices of 1-inch steel rod in place of the four magnets. The connectors now aligned perfectly and the four, 60-pound-rated magnets had plenty of holding power. You have to slide - not pull - the connections apart. I am very pleased with result. It both works and looks great. If I were to make any changes, I think I would swap the sides of the magnets versus the 1-inch steel rod slices. I currently have the magnets located on the machine and ductwork sides of the connection with the non-magnetic metal located on both ends of the 6-inch flex hose. I can potentially see where I would want to hang-up unused sections of flex hose of various lengths. It would be ideal if I could simply stick them up on the steel walls of my shop. To do this, I would need to put the magnets on the hoses. Thanks for the initial idea. It is elegantly simple.

    Great idea 👍, one main problem I see with your design is that the magnets are mounted directly to the hose clamp. If you accidentally vacuum a metal object, it will get stuck in your hose due to magnetic force and cannot come out without removing the hose clamp. The solution: Test how strong your magnets are and how far their pulling force extends on a very light metal object. Then measure this distance of pulling force and place a spacer between the hose clamp and the magnet on the hose clamp itself. Second thougth: if you buy barrel chaped magnets and let, one side of the adapter, the magnets stick out of the wood and on the other side you sink them in, you will have a better connetion, by eliminating the sheeringforce, and you get a physical connetion. this is extreamly usefull if you mount a CNC dustshoe with your solution, because magnetic force is only strong in the direktion of the other magnet itself and week against sheeringforce. greetings from Ruhrpott-Germany 🙂

I literally have 6 adaptors to go from the big tube that goes into the dust collector down to the tiny one on my mitre saw and it's a LOT of weight to put on the port bit that sticks out. This solution will be so much better all round. Thanks for sharing.

    @@RingsWorkshop I have shared this already with a few friends. Currently, I am using a Built-in NUTONE whole house vacuum I purchased from a guy who took it out of his him. Came with two lengths of 30-foot hose. Not the strongest or most powerful but it's doing the job. Mounted outside the shop so virtually no noise. I will try and use a larger hose that will go into a cyclone collector and then only the suction side will have the smaller hose leading into the vacuum itself. This magnet system is genius

    @@KNARF1 I appreciate you sharing it as well. Dust collection has always been fascinating to me because it seems like a lot of guess and check to see what works. Obviously professional systems there are set ways and things to use in a system, but for home systems there seems to be a ton of room to improve functionality and how things work, especially like you mentioned, when your tools have to be mobile. So I was excited how well this worked and the reaction I’ve gotten so far. Let me know how it work for you!

    I had hoped to do that, but because my tools are on a fiptop and a couple ports are at an angle, I was limited to how big the wood piece could be. 3.5" was my limit to fit. If you have more room you could use larger magnets at the corners. I thought about putting some on the sides too but after using this, there is no need for it, the four corners are plenty.

    I bought magnets via your links, picked one side & marked all of them 'N' on one side for arbitrary North, now I know which side faces out for tool vs hose ends (sort of like Line & Load in electrical work). Since I can see this is something I'll do a LOT of over time, I ordered 2 more packs of the magnets & will check poles & mark them as soon as they arrive so I don't forget. Thanks again

    Awesome ideas on dust collection. Looks like a little setup time upfront - building the routing and system will save time and frustration over a longer time - always the trade off. I appreciated you leaving the scenes in with the magnets acting unruly. When I try to take on this project I will try to remember to be careful that the magnets can jump farther than one would think. just found your channel and have subscribed because i liked the last couple systems you setup (Drill press dust collection and this). A couple ideas - miter saw dust collection, your use of magnets may be a better solution that i have seen on other channels - dust blast gates that don't always clog and require cleaning out with a nail in the tracks. Never mid on Miter saw dust collection - just saw you made that video. Watching now.

    There is a company that makes some but they are pricey to do an entire shop on, most are for larger piping and won’t solve the problem of having odd sized ports on the tools themselves. But I agree, surprised someone hasn’t had a better solve yet at a reasonable price.
