Overblade DC?

[Jay Yoder]

I posted this in the general section, but then I thought it would be more appropriate to post it here. I am working on trying to get overblade dc for my jet dlx with riving knife. I believe the guard is similar to the powermatic 2000. Anyone have any pics of their setup? i thought I saw a thread a while back that someone replaced the clear plastic piece on top with a dust pickup but I have not been able to find that thread. Any input and pics are greatly appreciated.

Jay...

I just fashioned an over blade DC for my Unigard. I think my guard might offer more flat area to graft the 2 1/2" fitting on than appears to be available on your guard, but I can't see your guard all that well in the photo I looked at.

My guard appears to be polycarbonate and the fitting is some sort of phenolic, I think. After using two different epoxy formulations that eventually came apart, I found a basic 2 part plastic epoxy that has stayed together for nearly a month now with considerable usage.
