I have a DEWALT Portable Hand Planer (D26676) and I can’t seem to find a dust collection bag that fits the this tool. It’s not just a regular circle so I can’t just use some adapter that would fit it. Does anyone have a solution to this?
Plug a vac in if you need too. Thus far I’ve just used it outside of my projects and let er blow.
heres an eBay listing, looks like it ships to US

That’s what I was thinking I might have to do; and just tape it or something.
Nice name by the way haha.
sorry, assumed it was the cordless planer…
Yea me too, that’s not going to work so well.
Maybe take a toilet paper core and zip tie it to the irregular side and then find a compatible adapter that fits the diameter for the vac side.
This at least will give you the flexibility you need while being able to adjust to the shapes you need.
what about rockier? they have those flexible fittings and and adapters
looks like you need the adapter, then you can put a dust bag on it or hook up to vacuum

That’s a good idea! I’ll have to let you guys know what I do and post it on here.

Yeah I see one of those on there that MIGHT fit. I’ll see what I can do and then post it on here.
Dont bother with the bag even for the cordless version. Anytime i use it the chippings just clog up inside the plane and come back out where the blades are giving you a bad finish. I never got a blockage without the bag or when connected to a vac
I have to say the cordless throws chips like a champ though. Turn a yard into a field of sawdust in 10min flat.
I usually don’t bother with the bag in my Bosch and just make it snow in the garage

What about going to the local hardware store and getting a rubber fitting and using a hose clamp to attach it to the planer. That’s what I’ve done. About to try it now. Well I already had the fitting tho but came from local shop
Looks terrible but works amazing 🤩
