Hose Clamps to the Rescue
A
FTER SEVERAL MISHAPS WITHthe bag coming off my dust collec-
tor, I made up a new band with a hose clamp, as shown. Start
with a 4-in. hose clamp. Cut it in two about midway, and pop-rivet a
length of steel or plastic band (the kind used to secure shipping car-
tons) between the two ends to lengthen the clamp to whatever size
you need.
