I got one of Kents Dust Shoes and by far is the best one I have tried it works very well, Easy to use and access to change my bits.

I really like his ideas. though it wont work on my prt alpha. so I would need to make one. right now I have a hose in front. but I wonder what he uses for brushes. the poly ones I got from mcmaster did not last they would bend and stay bent.

I use one from this company. There was a rep At John Forney's camp in 2008 and they handed out samples. It was enough for me to use on my dust foot and it has lasted.

Wow Steve,

That's the first time I think I ever saw someone else using the ShopFox Cam Clamps on their ShopBot! I've been using them since I set my machine up. I installed 8020 T-Track in my table, and have had no issues clamping anything. I like the low profile and the fact that they push down as well as in. If cutting all the way to the edge of the material, I simply use wood spacers.

Regards,
Ron

I have been using them for maybe a year. but I gave up on the track because it was hard to keep it in place and it got damaged if I goofed. so I make them from mdf and when I damage one enough I just make a new one this saves a lot of money over using the track.

Steve do you mean you are making the clamps out of MDF or the slots?

I would like to make the clamps so I could just screw them into the table where I need them.

the slots. I make the board with a t slot cutter. I used to screw the camps in place I made simple cam camps. but these work better and they are faster too.
