Has anyone here used the Kent dust shoe on a PRT? I was about to order one when I ran across another thread saying there may be an issue with the PRT and the Kent shoe. Just figured I'd double check with everyone. Thanks in advance.

it should work if you have your spindle or router mounted in the back hole. but mine is in the middle and there is not enough room. i can't really even get a 4" hose to mine.
I made one with the same idea it had to be short in the back and mounted lower to fit past the spring bracket and short in the front so not to hot the bar. the corner had to be removed so it did not hit the corner gusset when the spindle was up high and I was zeroing the machine.

I have one on an older PRT. I had to push the router back as far as it would go to have room for the 4" dust hose. I had to do some miner modifications to make it fit. I was doing some other mods. anyway and it was not a problem. The shoe works great.
