4 жыл бұрынHow to easily make wet dry vac hose to PVC pipe adaptors.
Learn just how easy it is to heat and shape PVC into an adaptor that can be used to connect any wet dry vac hose to standard size PVC pipe. These adaptors can be used for a variety of applications including when building a wet dry vac powered shop dust collection system or when using a wet dry vac to suck water out of underground pool filter lines.

Holy crap!! Brilliant!! I feel so dumb now. I have been searching for adapters, making makeshift couplers, using ridiculous amounts of tape and silicone...you name it! not one time did I ever think about grabbing my heat gun. Thank you! Months of doing the wrong thing, and the answer was so simple and right in front of my eyes. You are a lifesaver.

Everyone be careful when heating PVC, when it starts to burn it is highly toxic. If you smell anything, you are inhaling poison. The margin between making the PVC malleable vs. burning is small. Keep the heat moving and even just like he does in the video. Don't get the heat gun too close! Have fun. Thanks for this video, it was a great reminder of a very useful "trick".

Fantastic idea using a heat gun to manipulate the pvc to the needed diameter. I wish I thought of that!

Here's another PVC / Heat-gun tip- I took a 3" PVC threaded adapter, set it on my table, and then I set the back-end of the heat gun into it to help hold the heat gun upright. That frees up my hands and heat gun is pretty stable. I actually glued the 3" PVC to a small piece of wood base to make it more stable.

can you use a hose clamp to make the pvc SMALLER?
@TheRosstaman 6 күн бұрын
Brilliant! I wonder if you can also heat up the couplers or pipes in the oven (size permitting) and use an oven mitt to handle it whilst making the fitting.

Hi, this video is very helpful - thank you! I need to make a connection from 2" PVC pipe to the vacuum port of Vacmaster Vac (the vac port is 2.26" ID). 2" PVC pipe is about 2.38" OD. Wonder how to make the PVC pipe smaller instead? Thanks.
@DIYeasycrafts 3 жыл бұрын
Heat it up, put a hose clamp over the PVC, slide it over the fitting and then clamp down on the hose clamp

I think I saw some blast gates.. Have you ever tried to shrink 4" Sewer Pipe? The 4" needs to shrink about 1/4" in overall diameter. It is obvious from your videos, it will easily increase in size.. But, have you tried to shrink it? Like for making Blast gates out of Sewer pipe, that the 4" flex hose will go over and a snug fit? They are about the same size each, and the Sewer pipe needs to shrink a bit. Ever try to heat one up and let it cool, without doing anything else? Would it shrink?

Why don’t tool manufacturers simply utilize standard sizes and measurements so that their customers can easily adapt common materials, tooling and accessories.

Warning, this is a good idea but you need to add a bare copper ground wire inside the run of pvc for the vac. PVC builds up a static charge that can cause the sawdust to catch fire. It's code! Make sure the copper wire is attached to a ground.

Use two 45 degree pvc fittings connected together by a short straight pvc piece and you will get better flow/suction.
