There is a particular type of dust hose that is as flexible as an old slinky
toy. I bought an eight foot section at the recent wood working show in
Houston. It probably got very high flow loss, but its really good for
making those drop down nozzles for things like drill presses.
I've checked all the usual sources for dust collection, including online and
cannot find it. It looks like black vinyl clothes dryer exhaust hose,
except its much heavier vinyl (but much thinner than typical dust collection
hose.
Anyone know where to get it?
Bob
Thanks, Mike. That was the stuff I was looking for.

I got some of this from Penn State Industries awhile back. It actually came
in a kit with other DC fittings. At the time I was pretty irked because
their advertising didn't distinguish this type of flex hose from the normal,
more rigid type which is what I expected.
This might be what you're after:
