Drill Press Clamp/Bracket, 3" Post - for Loc-Line 2.5" Vac. Adapter
Description
This is a clamp and bracket adapter to interface with and mount a Loc-Line 2.5" Vacuum Adapter to a drill press with a 3" DIAMETER MAIN POST. The Loc-Line vacuum adapter and hose, as well as the bolts, nuts, washers, lock washers and knobs would need to be purchased/acquired separately. This assembly is designed to tighten, loosen, pivot and rotate fairly easily by loosening/tightening the two knobs with only a minimal amount of force. There is no need to over-tighten the knobs. It is also designed to be durable and rigid, so that the Loc-Line segmented vacuum hose can be adjusted without breaking the clamp or bracket. This is a very useful addition to your drill press for vacuuming sawdust and shavings when drilling. It works well. My drill press is an old Central Machinery model (Harbor freight). I don't know how common the 3" diameter of the main post is. It wouldn't be too difficult to modify the clamp diameter for a differing post diameter. In some ways, the Spacer and Bracket 2 (see diagram) are optional -- they are mainly there for added strength and rigidity, mentioned above.
