For those who don't have Festools, the dust port on the OF-1010 router
is oval and doesn't fit the hoses very well. The round 27mm hose end
has to be forced around the oval port.

For those who do, I found this adapter. It works really well.

I'm surprised Festool doesn't sell it. The price is about right.




Cool!

Have you seen the Rockler adapter?

But probably has to be used with the Rockler hoses. ;~(


I bought one just before I found this. It needs and adapter for the
adapter. It's not really useful. The Rockler hose would need an
adapter at the other end too. I probably would have tried to make it
work but I saw the above first. It's a much cleaner solution.



One has to wonder why there are oval ports.
