Trying to figure out some options for a dust collection arm. There are plenty of threads for a shoe but I'm not finding any specifically for the arm itself. I had a failed attempt using electrical conduit and I think some threaded pipe would work because the joints are stronger. I suppose the KISS methodology is glaring for this one.
Checkout the cool idea Dr D Flo used to suspend his Plasma cable - maybe a similar arrangement would work great for a dust hose See from 31min0sec onward in the video
For the longest time, I had a piece of 1x2 attached to the X gantry plate. I've since swapped it out with a spare piece of 2020. Works just fine.
