Full port and fit detail for this tool
The Craftsman CMCS550B is the Craftsman V20 Cordless 7-1/4 in. Circular Saw. The dust port sits on the side. We print the PETG adapter to the size you measure there.
A circular saw throws chips and fine dust hard. Catching it at the port keeps your cut line visible and the bench clear. One end of the adapter grips the saw port. The other end takes your shop vac hose. We print it to the size you measure, so it presses in and holds.

Craftsman CMCS550B Dust Port: What Connects To It
The dust port on the CMCS550B sits on the side of the saw, behind the blade guard. We print the adapter to the size you measure there.
Most shop vac hoses are 1-7/8 inch or 2-1/2 inch. Neither one fits a cordless saw port on its own, so dust blows past a taped hose instead of going in it.
A GulpDust adapter is printed to match the saw port on one end and your vac hose on the other end. Pick your hose and we make the part to match.
How to Connect a Shop Vac to the Craftsman CMCS550B
First, clear any dust out of the port. A clean port gives the best fit.
Press the tool end of the PETG adapter onto the port. We print it to the size you measure, so it holds with a firm push. Then press your shop vac hose onto the other end of the adapter. Turn the vac on before you start the cut.
Why a Cordless Circular Saw Still Needs a Hose
A cordless saw is easy to move around, so it often gets used indoors where dust has nowhere to go. The chips land on the floor and the fine stuff hangs in the air.
Pulling at the port catches most of it before it spreads. Your cut line stays visible, so the cut comes out straighter.
A short hose run keeps the saw easy to swing. Long, kinked hose cuts suction and drags on the tool.
Craftsman CMCS550B Dust Collection FAQ
Will a GulpDust adapter fit the Craftsman CMCS550B dust port?+
Yes. The port sits on the side of the saw. We print the adapter to the size you measure there, and the other end matches your shop vac hose.
Does the Craftsman CMCS550B work with a regular shop vac?+
Yes, with the right adapter. A shop vac hose and a tool port rarely match, so measure both. We print the GulpDust PETG adapter to your tool port measurement on one end and to your vac hose size on the other.
Do I need clamps or tape to attach the adapter?+
Usually not. We print the adapter to the size you measure, so you push it onto the port and it holds. The same goes for the vac hose end. Add a wrap of tape at any joint that sees heavy use.
Do you sell the design file?+
No. We sell the finished part. Each one is printed to order in PETG and ships from the US.
