Dust Collection with Sliding Compound Miter Saw

Dec 03, 2004 1 Replies

I'll be setting up an Oneida 1.5 hp cyclone dust collection system in the new year. How do you acheive decent dust collection with the sliding compound miter saw? I have the Makita 10".



Mr Fixit eh


Here is a VERY EXPENSIVE hood you can buy.

also saw this website when reading this newsgroup. Skip to the bottom of the website page and you will see a shopbuilt version of the downdrafter.

have not tried either of these yet but you can be sure that I will be building the shopbuilt version first when Santa brings me my SCMS in a few weeks!
