Any chance Festool will make a 90 degree adapter for the 36mm hose so you can use it with the mini/midi while still being able to stack systainers on top without hitting or crimping the hose? Not sure if this will work but something like this for the 36mm hose : http://www.festoolusa.com/products/dust-extractors/reducing-hose-sleeves/hose-sleeve-antistatic-angle-adapter-456806.html Not sure if this is just a replacement for the 27mm hose since they don't have the specs for what size hose it is for... -Jim |

Jim,
The part you've referenced is designed for the 27mm hose. There is no right angle for the 36mm.

OK, then add that to the wish list  I can't be the only person wanting this. Same part they make for the 27mm hose just in a 36mm size... Thanks -Jim |

If you go to the shop vac section of a big box store - Lowes if my old memory is any good - they sell an accessory that is a combo 90 degree adapter with a detachable small brush on the end. It is what I use. Think it was about $9.

I do use CT-mini with 36mm hose for house cleaning. Mini's housing hose opening is not designed for 36mm hoses, it's too small you have to squeeze hose. Another thing is that Mini's/Midi's housing is too small for keeping 36mm hoses on board. So I have to keep it off vac.

Jim,
If you search on the net, you can easily find a 2.25" 90 degree adapter, even anti-static.
Just use this, and plug your current Festool hose into it.

I'm not finding any hits. Anyone find one at a reasonable price (with a link)?  |
