Holy crap!! Brilliant!! I feel so dumb now. I have been searching for adapters, making makeshift couplers, using ridiculous amounts of tape and silicone...you name it! not one time did I ever think about grabbing my heat gun. Thank you! Months of doing the wrong thing, and the answer was so simple and right in front of my eyes. You are a lifesaver.

This is great in 2 ways. It helps figure out my fittings for dust collection and now I don't feel so bad about how dirty my shop it. Merry Christmas to All.

What a great idea. I never knew you could heat PVC up like that (and I have worked with it for years). THANK YOU for that tip.

Fantastic idea using a heat gun to manipulate the pvc to the needed diameter. I wish I thought of that!

Clever. Thank you. This is very helpful and I never would have thought of that. Thanks.

Here's another PVC / Heat-gun tip- I took a 3" PVC threaded adapter, set it on my table, and then I set the back-end of the heat gun into it to help hold the heat gun upright. That frees up my hands and heat gun is pretty stable. I actually glued the 3" PVC to a small piece of wood base to make it more stable.
