I received my JDS Dust Force dust collector yesterday, got it assembled,
and fired it up for the first time. I haven't even hooked it to a tool yet,
but I'm already envisioning where to run duct work!

Unfortunately, I've already run into my first hurdle. I have a 10" Delta
miter saw, and I've measured the port as 1-1/2" ID. Naturally, a 1-1/4"
shop vac hose is too small, and virtually every adapter I've seen steps
from 1-1/4" to 2".

Ideally, I'd like to run a short length of 1-1/2" hose (if I could find it)
from the saw up to the wall, then adapt to the 4" main duct.

Any ideas where I can get a 1-1/2" hose to fit the saw, and an appropriate
adapter to connect to the 4"?

Also, does anyone make rigid "antistatic" pvc pipes for duct work. I'd
prefer smooth pipe over the flexible corrugated stuff, but no one seems to
make it. I'd use regular PVC water pipe, but I've heard static buildup is a
potential danger.

Thanks,

Why wouldn't you put the hose on the outside of the port? I would
think sticking the hose inside the port would increase the risk of
clogging and would make it tough to keep the hose actually connected
to the saw.
