Abstract

A vacuum shroud system can include a shroud body having a top surface and a bottom surface, with a plurality of air holes defined by the shroud body and extending from the top surface to the bottom surface. A vacuum attachment void and a grinder attachment void may be defined by the shroud body, each extending from the top surface to the bottom surface. The vacuum shroud system may also include an adjustable collar disposed over the grinder attachment void of the shroud body to attach a grinder to the shroud body. The system may include a cover securable to the top surface of the shroud body, where the cover overhangs a top edge of the top surface. A vacuum hose may be securable within the vacuum attachment void, with a wall of the vacuum attachment void determining an outlet angle for the vacuum hose.
