Connect two dust collection attachments to one hose. This 3D printed manifold allows you to choose either input, or both at the same time.

A pin in the handle rides in a groove for A or B operation, but lift up on the knob and you can rotate 180 to then capture dust from ports A AND B.
This manifold was originally designed for personal use, but due to numerous requests, the design files are now available for others. It has only been tested on my specific setup, so you are responsible for proper installation and ensuring it operates safely in your own environment.
Included are .STL files of all the components, as well as an exploded view for assembly.
A few notes
I would suggest printing at least the main body from PETG, so it does not warp (I printed everything else with PLA).
I made self tapping holes for M3 bolts to assembly the lid and handle, but you could drill out and use head-set inserts if you’d like (M3 heat set inserts: https://www.mcmaster.com/catalog/131/3643/94459A769)
You can print all the pieces on a Bambu A1 or larger machine.
Use support materials (from base plate only) to print.
I used thick acrylic for my lid, but I also designed a 3D printable lid.
You will need to glue the cross brace to the interior valve, as well a the pin into the knob (it should move freely in the handle).
You will receive a secure link to download the file.
The pictured holder is printed in PETG with 15% infill and 0.2mm layer height.
This is a DIGITAL FILE only, you will need to print our have printed.
