My bandsaw has this upgrade on it..however-the elbow has cracked and I want to replace it.

Its not clear to me how the elbow connects to the flange though- is it glued/epoxied together?

thank you !

It should not be glued unless the previous owner glued it. It should just be a friction fit.

Thank you John- these pieces seem like standard 2 1/2 " pieces..so I could just get a 2 1/2" elbow I think ?
