A store that sells woodworking equipment is your best bet.

Try rockler.com or woodcraft.com

Look under "dust collection".  Both have stores...perhaps near where you 
live.



Also try Home Depot or Lowes.  They carry different sizes of dryer hoses 
and fittings to go with them.

I will run the 6 feet of hose through the sheetrock wall, and down through the sole plate into the basement, so the maximum hose diameter is 3.5 inches (it will go through a 2 X 4 sole plate).
