How do most of you hook the feins up to your PVC? Do most use the stock hosed or something different? Tape,glue, caulk?

Thanks,

Todd

I use a heat gun and heat the PVC until it's nice and soft. Then I jam the vacuum hose into the warm PVC and hold it in place while the PVC cools. I twist the vacuum hose back and forth while it's cooling so they don't stick together.
Works great and you get a nice tight fit.

I use the stock hose and put it into the end of the PVC pipe and then wrap electical tape around both for a nice seal.

Get a rubber reducer for the size of the pvc with the other end a snug fit for the Fein. I don't remember the size but Home Depot will have it. Hose clamp it to the pvc and you can "let it out and let it in" to quote a Beatles song.

I use the metal tape used on air ducts. Seals real well.
