Why didn’t I think of that? Instead I printed an adapter for my dust separator. I built a dust separator using the video in [this post](https://forum.sienci.com/t/chris-notaps-diy-cyclone-review/4236) of mine.

I would recommend a dust separator for anyone who doesn’t have one and uses a shop vac. Has paid for itself in vacuum bags saved. I’m in my second year of LongMill ownership and on my second vacuum bag!
