A follow up on the thread on using a shop vac as a dust collector. I
have a Ridgid vac with 2 1/4" hoses.....I
would like to use this as a dust collector on my Bosch slide miter saw,
which has a 1 1/2" dust collection fitting.

Try looking for an adapter to connect a short length of narrow hose to
your existing hose.

On my non-slider I just use the full size hose with an adapter directly
coupled to the saw.
