I have recently purchased a Jet 650CK dust collector and have hooked it up to my table saw. I have attached the dust collector to the 2 1/2" dust collection port and with a splitter I have another dust collection point at the bottom of the saw where I have sealed in the stand with a board and Delta dust collection hood. I am getting much less saw dust but the forward motion of the saw blade still kicks dust outward towards the operator.
In the book "Controlling Dust in the Workshop" by Rick Peters, he talks about cutting a hole in your blade guard and attaching a 2" hose. Have any of you tried doing this? Has it been effective?
Thank you for your help.
