Sander Adaptor to vacuum cleaner

[d2001]

Hello
I've got a black and decker sander but want to connect it to my vacuum cleaner. Anyone know where to but an adapter from? I'm a infrequent diy so only using for painting around the house

Measure both the intake/outputs and look on eBay./Amazon

Often you get a universal adaptor that consists of several tubes that step up in size. Or use gaffer tape

If you can't find the model specific one, get one of those universal adapters, and use a heat gun or the cooker hob to heat one end to form a rectangular socket.

It's usually in the box when you get it and then stuck somewhere if will be safe for later and thus forgotten about.

You can get plastic kits that have about 5 sizes of adapter. Amazon are expensive for that so Ebay might be better (or Temu if you don't mind waiting a bit). Don't do what I did though and use a steel Henry vacuum pipe. I don't know if it was a short somewhere or if they sander vibration built up static, but I got increasingly stronger shocks the more I used it and ended up dropping it and putting on a dust mask instead
