I have an XXL, and my dust hose is too heavy and droopy to stay up and out of the way. To fix that, I picked up a fiberglass wire running kit from harbor freight for 8 bucks. The sections are pretty stiff and screw together so you can assemble as many segments as you want. Need more lift? Use two stick side by side.
I have the hose connected to a fixed fitting at the middle left of my table. It droops pretty badly in the center and gets in my way.
I put together a few segments of the rod and used zip ties to suspend the hose. At the base I used hose clamps, but a few zip ties would probably have worked too.
Zip ties, hose clamps, rubber bands and velcro are all options. I started by drilling a 1/4" hole in my table and shoving one end of the rod down there. It worked, but the positioning was bad. The threads on each section are M4, so you could attach things in between each segment with your own threads, or use that to mount it to some kind of base. Lots of possibilities.
