Stick-On Dust Sucker: a hands-free dust removal system for impact drilling

Introducing the Stick-On Dust Sucker: Your Easy, Effective Solution for Mess-Free Drilling

Eliminate dust and debris with the Stick-On Dust Sucker, an innovative hammer drill adaptor that effortlessly attaches to your shop vac, capturing dust and debris directly at the source. Enjoy a clean and efficient drilling experience without the hassle of messy cleanup.

Key Features:

Durable Construction: The adaptor's rigid shell structure, featuring curved shapes and ribs, withstands even the toughest construction site conditions even when printed with PLA.

Powerful Adhesion: The design ensures a strong grip, even with low-power shop vacs, keeping the adaptor securely in place during operation.

Optimized Dust Extraction: Perpendicular vacuum ports tu the adhesion pad minimize dust accumulation in the adaptor.

Maximum Flow Rate: The flow cross-sectional area is not restricted anywhere between the vacuum hose and the drilling point.

Long-Lasting Design: The absence of soft sealing edges ensures long-term durability and reliable performance, even on rough surfaces.

Printing:

Print without supports with a layer height of 0.2 mm. Ensure good cooling and low speed for overhangs. Works well with PLA.

The exported .STL is for OD 35 mm vacuum hose ends and max D20 mm drill bit. For other hose diameters and bigger drill bits, the Fusion file is attached. Feel free to remix for your needs.

Modeling notes:

Since the surface of the major overhang (ID of the tube) is hollow, it is sensitive to the overhang capability of your printer. I recommend keeping the overhang 5° smaller than what you are used to printing confidently.

The model is somewhat stable at the creation of the main bodies. Since there are a number of interfering fillets, the stability decreases at the end. You may need to experiment to make it work with your hose diameter.
