    Default Shopbot dust foot spacer

    The dust foot that came with desk top can't be positioned to work effectively with longer bits. A spacer is required. I would like to make one and wonder if anyone has a file of the actual layout. Thanks

    Take a picture of the foot with your camera. Measure the length and width of the foot. Write it down. Import pic into VCarve Pro and trace it with vectors. Scale it to the LxW you wrote down. Cut it. It will take you like 10 min tops to draw.
