Make clamp

First create the PVC pipe clamp out of the 1/4 inch delrin sheet, I cleaned it up after the carve with some sand paper.

2

Attach to Z-Axis Motor

Using 2 longer M5 x 30 bolts, attach the plate to the 2 back Z-Axis motor bolts.

3

Build tubing

Using about 3-4 inches of 3/4 inch PVC to a threaded PVC piece, both of which I got at lowes, attach to a threaded piece of 3/4 loc-line:

I'm assuming this is a dust collection system. Does it work better than the dust collection that comes with the machines now?
