Seems like it could use a wider funnel, but the maneuverability of the arm might be an advantage. Wondering how well it stays in place, and how easy it is to re-position.

Well, when I sand bowls, I run a 5 inch like to my sanding hood. This thing does not appear to have that option. I have been pondering a big X scissor expand/contract type set up.

I drooled over it when I saw it in Texas. I'm more interested in using it on my workbench for carving and routing. Might look into adding it as a second pickup on my lathe.
