Scrappile Posted April 6, 2020 Report Share Posted April 6, 2020 I am always looking for ways to improve the nozzle on my dust collection on my scroll saw. Some to fit over or on the nozzle to prevent little pieces from getting sucked up that I don't want to have sucked up. Couple years ago I found a part in an old Delta faucet that was on the end of the spout that worked perfect in my top nozzle. The first on pictured. Never could find a way to purchase the part separately, had to buy the would screw on thingy which was more than I was willing to pay just to get this part out of it. Today I found something that I think will work for my nozzle on my other saw setup. This just happen to come out of a Jameson bottle.... I use it only because I can't find mouth wash in the stores right now, have to improvise for the cause, the least I could do.... With a little heat it slipped right over the nozzle. I think it will work pretty good. May wear out quicker so I may have to build up a stock of them,,,, new2woodwrk, stoney, Dave Monk and 4 others 4 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What does that about us? 3 fingers of CC over 5 ice cubes leaves me feeling mello. After shp time. Not during. Oh, we like our wine too.

It is going to be interesting to see which one of us survives this time of crisis. She's mad at me because I stopped saying "what" and just clammed up. Lol.

Oh, and my iPad to go with them each evening. Loved the comment about the "mouthwash", Scrappile . Made me laugh. OCtoolguy 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(Big smile) It all depends on time of day. If it's during the day, they will be vertical but in the evening, they will be laying horizontally. Oh, and the number of ice cubes is optional.
