14” Bandsaw – Dust extraction 2

Noticed this morning that the lower wheel cover which also serves for dust extraction is not closing flush at the bottom.

Would not have thought that the middle 3mm MDF panel is the culprit. We need to recess the bottom edge of the cover.
Removed the cover and transferred the cut out measurements to the cover. Then got out the multifunction tool and went to plug it in, one pin was a bit bent.



Began to straighten the pin – and it fell off ! Run out of normal plug tops, don’t really want to use one of my piggy back’s. When I get some more plug tops I’ll recover that piggy back.

Fitted the cover back on and she now closes flush all around.

Hmm…having some thoughts to make my own internal vacuum motor unit that could possibly sit inside the saw stand.
