Dust extractor attachment for OF2000 router

[wmaclenn]

I have managed to get hold of an old OF2000 router to fit in my basis 6 table (forerunner to CMS), but it ideally needs the under-table plastic dust extractor attachment. The part number is 487253-78-FES444376.  The third party parts suppliers in the UK say its no longer available.  Mafell look like they still make an identical one and it shows on their parts catalogue, but I cant get a response from Germany on it.  Can anyone suggest where I might try, has one they no longer want, or know of an alternative that might fit?

Could you adapt Festool's table widener to do the job?

I've had great success getting hold of oddball Mafell parts from their UK importer;

As i have known Kevin on and off for many years now, i think i could say his German is rusty at best  ;D  or even no existent. Us brits tend to just use Google translate, in much the same way you yanks do as well, maybe try it ?  [big grin]
