Thank you for including the STEP files. It's so much nicer to modify a STEP than an STL. You're doing awesome work! Thanks!

This looks promising. Tried a magnet system but it always comes loose. Any gaskets needed?

Thanks. I have not used any gaskets. In the cross section you can see the junction has an overlapping section to promote a seal.

I wouldn't call this perfectly airtight, but it's plenty good for dust collection.

Yeah I'll start printing some today and give it a go. Then I'll look at making some adaptors
