Does anyone know where I can obtain such a critter? The nearest
Rockler and Woodcraft store deny that it exists.

My bandsaw came with a dust port meant for use with a shop vac and

having
a 2" OD. I need to get from that to a 2 1/2" DC hose.

TIA, Bill

or look for "universal dust adapter". I bought one from Woodcraft
many moons ago. You can cut off the necessary chunk to fit your
requirements.

Penn State also has them:

Neither of those will work. The confusion comes from which
perspective specifications interpret outside and inside diameter
measurements. The OP is looking for a 2" O.D. The adapter to fit
this would have a 2 1/4" O.D. None of the universal adaptors support a
2 1/4" O.D. They have 2" and 2 1/2" O.D.
