    Some time ago I bought a used Openbuilds CNC, its a Lead 1515 mounted with a AMB1050 spindle.
    My problem is that i cant find a dust shoe design that works with the square mount that the spindle is mounted with.
    Alle the designs I can find is with the round mounting directly on the spindle

    Is there anyone that has an idea?

    What's wrong with mounting it to the spindle?

    My setup looks like this, so there is nothing left of the spindle to mount on

    Fairly simple to do with an L-bracket attached to the side of the mount.

    Dust Shoe for Routers - though designed to clamp around the Dewalt router - you might be able to modify: drill some additional mounting holes into either the dust shoe top plate or the router mount or both. Use brackets. Use double sided velcro tape. Lots of options - just a pinch of imagination :)

    You were right Peter, I just had to use my imagination, so designed one myself and cut it on the CNC
