Sliding compound miter saws.

Haven't you hooked up a dust collector or shop vac to it? That should catch 95%. My HF SCMS dust collector bag works pretty well, catching about 75%. I seldom use it on site, though.

Gluing fabric to wood

A really horrible glue for the shop but a great glue for fabric to wood gluing. Real good open time, easy to make corrections in the placement of the cloth. easy cleanup and when setup holds the fabric in place forever. and is more flexible then normal wood glue for fabric.
