bigcreekdad Posted October 6, 2013 #1 Posted October 6, 2013 Most of my tools....saw, sanders etc have 1.5" openings to attach vacuum hose. I can find no relatively inexpensive shop vacs that have 1.5" hoses. They all seem to be 1.25". Anyone have any advice? Quote

Pete38 Posted October 6, 2013 #3 Posted October 6, 2013 I use black electrical tape to make the hose end the correct size Quote Triton Cross Section 1:32 SEE YA LATER

dgbot Posted October 6, 2013 #5 Posted October 6, 2013 Go to a hardware store and look at there pvc tubing. You will find a 1.25 to 1.5 connection and you can use this. I found that to be the best soluton for me.
