Shop vacs, aka Rodney......as in Dangerfield.
Best said with a britisher accent,"ehh,ow bout a bit of Rodney ere".
Our best Rodney hookup is on a '51 W/T (uhh,that's Walker Turner) 1200 power feed drillpress.Uses a 2 1/2" IIRC,muffler clamp for the ribbed hose.Don't need to be tight because that formed pce that fits over the U ......is exactly rib spacing,which allows for very quick hosend positioning.
So,the U gets a bolt welded to the cntr of the U bend.This bolts to a band that goes around DP column....which uses the camlock off a bicycle seat stem.Either steal the neighbor kid's or get them off eBay.
It's like 4 or 5 axis.The muffler clamp body interface with a Rodney hose is the chintz.
