Ed, if you can get ahold of 2 pieces of square tubing, preferrable aluminum. Mount them together so that the swivel off each other, mount one of them to your ceiling or rafters via swivel mount. On the second piece, mount a 2" piece of pipe or pvc, something a bit larger than the hose but yet will allow you to move the hose easily.

If you've ever seen what is called "dock lights", you'll know what I'm talking about. Instead of a light on the end, you just have a piece of pipe to which holds the hose for dust collection. You can either mount them on a wall or your ceiling. Up an out of the way.

Yes, that's exactly what I was talking about. If it's only going to be used for vac hose use, was only suggesting using lighter weight material. Also suggested ceiling mount, so as it can be "pushed" up out of the way, no loss of work space in the shop.
