Blum Vacuum Connector is a dust collection accessory designed by a cabinetmaker for the Blum Minipress, so it addresses real hinge cup drilling mess where the machine is actually used. The connector slides onto the Minipress depth stops, creating a fixed pickup point right at the drilling area so chips are captured at the source instead of spreading across the bench. It connects to any standard shop vac hose with a 2.25 inch outer diameter, tying your existing vac into the Minipress workflow so you do not need a separate dust system for this task. The unit is custom-made to order using a 3D printer, so its geometry matches the specific Minipress depth stop layout and keeps the connector located where it continues to work as the stops are used during hinge cup routing.
The Fastcap Blum Vacuum Connector is built to interact directly with the Blum Minipress depth stops, so mounting happens by sliding the connector onto those stops instead of altering the machine. Because it uses the depth stops as its anchor, the pickup point remains associated with the drilling line while hinge cups are routed, helping dust collection stay effective across repetitive cabinet door runs. Its hose interface is sized for any standard shop vac hose with a 2.25 inch outer diameter, giving a clear, repeatable connection point between the Minipress station and the vacuum. With the connector sitting at the depth stops and the hose locked onto its outside diameter interface, the suction path runs from the hinge cup drilling area directly back to the shop vac.
The Blum Vacuum Connector fits into the cabinetmaking workflow anywhere a Blum Minipress is used for routing hinge cups in doors or panels. Because it is designed by a cabinetmaker specifically for the Blum Minipress, its geometry and connection points reflect how the machine is typically operated at a drilling station, tying dust collection directly to that work area. Mounted by sliding onto the depth stops, the connector sits at the same reference used to control drilling depth, so as workpieces move through the Minipress the suction pickup stays at a consistent location near the bit path. This placement means that as each hinge cup is routed, chips travel into the vacuum stream tied to your standard shop vac hose with a 2.25 inch outer diameter, supporting cleaner parts before they move to hinge installation or assembly stages.
Each Blum Vacuum Connector is custom-made to order using a 3D printer, so the part is formed specifically around the relationship between the Blum Minipress depth stops and the vacuum hose interface, helping it sit repeatably in the same orientation every time it is used. That repeatable fit keeps the suction opening where hinge cup chips are produced, reducing the chance of dust drifting beyond the pickup zone during multiple cabinet door drilling cycles. Connecting to any standard shop vac hose with a 2.25 inch outer diameter means the vacuum source is predictable, so suction performance at the Minipress station remains consistent from job to job when the same vac is used elsewhere in the shop. With the connector relying on sliding engagement over the depth stops rather than improvised clamping points, the relationship between drill bit, workpiece, and dust collection stays stable, supporting a routine process where cleanup demands do not grow as production volume increases.
The Blum Vacuum Connector is designed specifically for the Blum Minipress, so it integrates into that machine's drilling setup for hinge cup routing tasks in cabinet work.
The Blum Vacuum Connector slides onto the depth stops of the Blum Minipress, using those stops as a fixed mounting point so the pickup stays positioned at the drilling area.
The Blum Vacuum Connector connects to any standard shop vac hose with a 2.25 inch outer diameter, so it matches common shop vacuum hose sizing for dust collection.
The Blum Vacuum Connector positions suction at the Blum Minipress drilling area, so hinge cup chips move into the vacuum stream during routing instead of spreading around the station.
The Blum Vacuum Connector is custom-made to order using a 3D printer, so its form matches the Blum Minipress depth stops and hose interface rather than a generic dust fitting.
The Blum Vacuum Connector is a Fastcap product, aligning it with a brand focused on woodworking tools and dust collection accessories used in cabinet shops.
Choosing the Fastcap Blum Vacuum Connector ties a Blum Minipress directly into a standard shop vac hose with a 2.25 inch outer diameter, so hinge cup routing happens with active dust collection rather than open-air chip buildup. Because the connector is designed by a cabinetmaker for the specific Minipress depth stops, it positions suction where drilling actually occurs and does so through a sliding mount that respects the existing machine layout. For cabinet shops and serious DIY users running hinge cup work on a Blum Minipress, this connector supplies a task-focused way to link the machine and vacuum so the drilling station stays oriented toward production instead of cleanup.
