Beaver sander dust port, 90° 3in PVC elbow

Gets the dust from a Beaver sander out of the air and into a 3in PVC pipe. A flat flange with two screw holes holds it over the opening, and a smooth 90° bend turns the flow sideways. Change the opening size to match your sander's port.

Parts

  • dust-port · PLA · Lying on its side, with the flange standing on its long edge

    Supports are needed under the bend, and it has little bed contact, so use a brim.

Notes
Use a 5 mm brim because only a small area touches the bed.

Hardware

  • 2 × 5/16 inch bolts with washers · Washers of about 22 mm OD fit beside the duct.

Assembly

  1. Bolt the flange to the sander over the dust opening, using the slots to line it up.
  2. Push the 3 inch PVC pipe into the socket until it stops on the shoulder.

Good to know

  • The sander opening size and the slot spacing are estimates, so check them against your Beaver before printing.
  • The part sits on very little bed area when printed on its side and needs about 61 g of supports and a brim; the build report still flags both. The pipe fit has not been tested, so print the socket end first if you want to check it.
