Hello,
Can anyone tell if the small pickup tool that comes with this kit is smaller than the utility pickup tool that is supplied with the dust collector? I recently purchased the Vac Extenison kit on E-Bay and the vac head is smaller than my dust collector utility vac head.
Thanks

Brad - I'm guessing everyone is in the same boat with me. I have no idea of what a Shopsmith utility extension KIT is! I see the extension listed in the catalog as part no 555582, but that doesn't help much. I have the small floor pickup part that is shown next to the picture on catalog page 16 - it fits the SS hose. Maybe what you need is a coupler or and elbow - parts 515430 or 514521. Did you get a flexible gooseneck with your kit?

Features a 2-1/2" opening for connection to the DC3300. Special Support Brackets attach directly to machines to accept a strong, flexible, vinyl-covered gooseneck that rotates a full 360° for unlimited positioning.

The small floor pick-up is about 4 x 6 inches. Maybe a little smaller in some models.
