I made this out of necessity when an adapter I ordered online never arrived. Simple remove the vacuum port that comes with the Kreg Foreman and replace it with the two-piece version included here. You can also re-use the two fasteners that came with the machine.

I printed this in PETG on a Prusa i3 Mk3S and it's worked well for connecting my Festool 36mm vacuum hose. Since it is a two-piece assembly it is in essence modular. Different external adapters can be printed to fit any diameter or type of vacuum hose.

Print Settings

Printer Brand:

Prusa

Printer: 

I3 MK3S

Rafts:

Doesn't Matter

Supports: 

Yes

Resolution:

0.2mm

Infill: 

25%

Filament: Matterhackers PETG Red


 

Notes:

 

Due to the piloting boss features you'll need to print with supports, but only between the flange and the bed. I used 4 vertical shells for strength. You can post-process by smoothing/sanding if you desire but the adapter worked fine for me with no post-processing.
