Maybe I'm not being thorough enough, but I did a quick search and didn't see anything promising on the first page of results.
Are there any good quick connect/disconnect solutions for dust collection?
I have the HF DC with 4" flex hoses. My two hoses are permanently clamped to my jointer and planer, and they're a massive PITA to remove/connect, so I don't want to touch them. I just use blast gates and a Y fitting. That's fine, but I recently bought an r4512 table saw with a 4" dust port and I want to connect it too. Another Y fitting is fine, and so is another hose, but my shop isn't really setup for permanent machine locations. I move things around a lot. That was a huge selling point for the r4512 because it comes with locking casters. What's a good way to quickly connect the DC hose after moving things around?
Thanks!
