Do you mean one of these;

If you do, then Axminster have them.

well, i will need one of those, but i mean the crown guard itself, a hose adaptor that you pop rivet on.

thanks any way Ed

I think Axminster do a after market crown guard with extraction port as well as the fitting that Ed showed.

I'm not aware of one that you can buy that will fit directly on your riving knife. Axi do the guard boom thingy but it's quite spendy (tho if I had a TS in a fixed position, I'd have one).

Making one should be quite straight forward.

I had the crown guard on my Wadkin AGS adapted by a local metalworker to take a dust extraction port.

It worked so well that I kept it when I sold the saw and fitted it to my SCM. Cost about £20 IIRC

The whole thing could be fabricated if you didn't want to mod the alu one.
