DJ-20 dust port size? - jussi - 01-09-2021
Finally able to get move my dj-20 out of storage to the shop. I got it used a while back but didn’t have the space till now. It’s missing the dust port. Anyone know what size and where I can get a replacement. Doesn’t have to be oem. On of the plastic aftermarket will do as long as it fits. Thanks

4" is pretty well standard on 8" joiners.

Had a 4” port originally.
6” would be good if your system will support it.
These guys should have one that works:

When I upgraded to a Oneida system they made me a 5" port that worked great. It never clogged and removed all the chips.

Thanks guys. For some reason I had it in my head that the flange has to match the current screw holes. So I take it there’s no harm is just drilling new holes on the side.

No drill away. It isn't a collectible.

While you are at it; top of dust chute is open to cabinet. Closing off this chute greatly enhances dust collection. IIRC I used 1/4" scrap plywood (or maybe Masonite) and closed off top, attaching it with foil duct tape. Greatly enhances dust collection. Try it: you will like it.

Yes. I used 1/2" mdf I think.
