Portable Oneida DC questions. - stoppy - 12-14-2020
When I got my Oneida DC 15 years ago I ordered the roll around cart for it since i didn't do flat stock work only turning at the time. I'm debating piping it in now that I'm doing flat stock and much less turning versus just getting/making hose adapters for each tool. Anyone else have your DC on a cart and just move the hose to a tool as needed. It is very seldom I have anyone else in the shop working so I almost never have more than one tool going at a time that needs a DC. I'd prefer not spending the money for piping but would do it if it's the best option.

My shop is a little of this and a little of that.
I use a Rockler collapsible hose on my DC. It reaches 5 tools. I have a few that are portable (roll around) that I move into position. My shop by day is a garage by night. Having portable tools makes that possible.

I have a 8” 10’ hose coming off the DC reduced to a 4’ 4” hose. I have several of my tools equipped to roll around. A few 4” to 2” adapters and I should be good to go like you are doing. Makes sense.
