Finally a solution that replaces the terrible dust collection attachment on your DeWALT 12" DWS779 or DWS780 Double Bevel Compound Sliding Miter Saw! You will see a HUGE improvement in dust collection efficiency with this upgrade - all without losing ANY effective saw capacity! This chute is printed in either BLACK or YELLOW high strength PETG plastic with black PETG accessories.
NOTE: This solution is designed SPECIFICALLY for the DWS779/780 model numbers. It should also fit models DWS709, DWS718, DWS782 and DHS790. There is no guarantee that this will fit any other saw.
Everything you need is Included:
(1) Dust Collection Chute Body
(1) Expanding Hose Section
(2) Flexible rubber flap
(1) Hose Transition Piece (with optional adapters if ordered)
(4) Small phillips screws for attaching flap to the chute body
(1) Install Card with QR Code for complete installation video
There is an option to add a dust collection fitting to accommodate the common dust collection hose sizes.

| Hose Transition | 1.625" (41.2mm) | 1.4" (35.5mm) | Small extractor hoses, Festool D27 |

If you're in desperate need of some cleanliness in your shop, look no further! This product was meticulously designed and tested to optimize dust collection efficiency while not impacting the capacity of the saw itself.
Blade changes: To change your blade you will need to loosen the (2) mounting screws to allow enough wiggle room to get the blade off. This minor inconvenience was a necessary evil to keep safety and dust collection efficiency as high as possible!

It’s finally nice to be able to use my Dewalt 718 miter saw after all these years. I had to set it up outside of the shop for some cuts if not it took me another 30 minutes just to clean up…what a mess. No more! It collects 90 - 95% of the dust. Awesome product and I highly recommend this dust shroud! It fit the 718 saw like a glove! Great job Travis and keep those ideas ideas coming! One completely satisfied customer!!

I have a DeWalt 779. I had it hooked to a shop vac directly and another vac hose behind the fence. Still managed to get saw fust in my coffee 6 feet away. After I stalling this dust collection upgrade there is very little dust anywhere and I only use one shop vac now. Easy to install. Works great and reduces the area the saw needs to operate. Plus, no dust in my coffee! Fantastic product!!
Brian B.
What a great upgrade over the useless factory "dust collection" it was easy to install and does a great job. I tried to upload a video but kept telling me it was too big but was smaller than error message.
So have to trust me on this one. Worth the upgrade!!!
David K.
Very nice replacement for the stock "dust collector". I ran into two issues... First I had to remove the angle indicator at the back of the saw in order to remove the stock dust collector. This is something not called out in the instructions, but wasn't a big deal. Second is that I have my fence slid most of the way towards the blade and now I have to move them out so that the new dust collector can slide between the fence. Unfortunately I built my saw into a custom workbench and will need to modify the workbench so that I can slide the fence open to allow the dust collector to clear. Not a fault of the product, but something to be aware of.
Steve
Works great
James C.
Fit and install was perfect. Dust collection was improved greatly, not totally dust free but well worth the purchase price in my opinion.
Thanks
Tony M.
so far I like not having the long pickup hose out the rear
Caleb W.
Such a great upgrade, wish I had found this years ago! The dust collection is so effective.
Brian V.
Great upgrade - cuts down dust significantly when using dust collection. I would buy again if this one gets broken from flying scrap.
Rene O.
The flap is a bit too short, I think, cause it still leaves a noticeable amount of dust out. I am using the harbor freight dust collector so I know the suction power is not a problem.
Victor M.
Product was delivered quickly. Easy to install. Difference in dust collection is night and day. Captures at least 95% of the dust compared to 20% with factory installed.
Daniel P.
This dust collector system is a big upgrade over the existing OEM system. The installation video is very easy to follow. Great product! I highly recommend it.
Clayton F.
Major improvement over the factory system. Works well, not hard to install.
Alan B.
Great product! Arrived promptly and easy to install, a step-by-step video.
Joe V.
IT works very well. I have an issue as it slides the rubber hits the fence and stops it from sliding to full lenght. I may have done something wrong. ive watch the video but looks right.
James S.
This works EXACTLY like the YouTube videos you see. It certainly doesn't collect 100% of the saw dust, but it is a HUGE improvement over stock.
Order arrived quickly and was correct.
Instructions on YouTube were very easy to follow and accurate.
Bob C.
Just a handful of uses so farceith the shop nation dust port. Seems really good. Like was even mentioned in the original video, you're not going to get perfect dust collection with a miter saw sbd dewalt set the bar very low out of the box. I couldn't tell if the blade used was the stock blade ( 24T maybe). I have an 80T fine finish blade and it seems with finer dust, more can escape past the dust chute. Still I think it's a goid upgrade and the other bonus is it saves space with that long chute and bag out of there.
Scott B.
This addition to my DeWalt is awesome! Adding this to my saw has eliminated the need for a hood and there is minimal saw dust on the workstation now. I highly recommend this product!
John W.
Easy to install and works like a champ! About 30 minutes to install with clear directions. I hooked up a small 3 gal vacuum and it picked up almost all of the dust generated!
Michael R.
Easy install and probably like 75% improved dust collection on my dewalt 779
Michael H.
Quick install! Super slick design, scooping and sucking up all the MDF dust. Great product, I would recommend it!
Gary B.
Easy to install and works great. My saw is in a big miter box hood with dust collection hooked up and this improved the messy overshoot of the saw dust
Jim S.
Works great.
Curtis F.
very easy to install. installation video was very detailed made installing very easy to do. Have only used my saw a couple of times since install however the dust collection was fantastic.
Lilian H.
My guess is this product will make a big difference. However, I cannot install it on my saw because the screws for the blade guard will not come off. I've tried everything I can, including seeking help from 2 guys much stronger than I am, but none of us can turn them. It's as if they've been welded on at the factory. I'm considering cutting the thing off, or trying to drill them out somehow, but not sure how to approach this. If anyone reading this review has a suggestion, I'd love to hear it. Fortunately, they've offered me a complete refund so if I can't get the screws off, I'll have to return it. Customer service has been great!! I really wanted this to work!

I have used my new Mitresaw collection adapter for my DW718 and it worked perfectly. I wished I would have had the collection adapter when I bought the saw (15+ years ago).
Also ensure that Shop Nation has a patent on the collection adapter so the "Mitresaw Manufactures Giants" don't get to use it.
To fellow Canadians make sure you purchase the Shop Nation Mitresaw Dust Collection, you will not regret it.
Job well done!
Thanks again
Ben L.
I knew this would be good but I didn’t know it would be this good! I was on fence about getting rid of my large DeWalt saw and getting a Festool. Thank you so much for making this!
David P.
Great fit, better dust collection than OEM.
Noel P.
We all know about the challenges of collecting dust on a miter saw. There is no perfect solution out there, that I'm aware of, but the ShopNation dust collection system for some Dewalt sliding miter saws is about the best I've seen. I installed it on my DW718 and I would estimate that I'm now capturing 80% or more of the dust produced by that machine. In my small shop, that is huge. After watching the video, my installation took about 15 minutes, without rushing the process. When you consider what we all spend on dust collection stuff, the price point isn't bad either.
Ron M.
As you are aware, this saw takes up so much footprint space without the dust port that goes all the way to the back, I was glad to not only find something like this specifically designed for my saw, but it actually works!
Thanks for your product and taking on the challenge of dust collection.
David P.
Great job! I’m amazed at how well it works. Wonder why Dewalt didn’t work a little harder to engineer a dust collector that works
Floyd P.
So much better than factory dust collection.
Well worth the price.
Wayne H.
Installation went very well thanks to the video by Travis. The collector is a major improvement. It's still a messy tool. At some point I will switch to a dust collector and that might get that last little bit but for now my little 2 hp vac and this jewel will make it far easier to live with the miter saw. The fit and function of this collector art such a big improvement I'm surprised Dewalt didn't try to buy it from Travis.
Todd W.
My Dewalt 779 miter saw went from no dust collection to about 95%. There is still a little dust that escapes, but its very minor. I was going to build an elaborate hood system with scoops but now I don't have to. The installation video is thorough and made the install a breeze. Highly recommend.
Daniel D.
Fits perfectly on my DWS779 … great improvement on dust collection
Stephen T.
Fit was perfect. YouTube video was spot on. Dust collection on my Dewalt is now superior.
Scott M.
Works great wish I had found it earlier!
Chris P.
I love the simplicity of the installation. The hardest part about the install was finding a T30 bit in my shop. The custom adaptors fit well with my shop-vac. The indents on the twist-locking adaptor could be a little stronger, but overall it's great. I'm excited to see how it holds up to use over time.
V.A. N.
Excellent purchase. Fit nicely, installed without a hitch, and the pickup performance is superb. And the yellow colored plastic looks quite nice alongside the DeWalt colors.

The Dewalt Sliding Bevel Miter Saw upgrade performed as advertised. It was easy to install. After collecting the improved saw to the dust collection system, the dust was reduced by 95% or more. Previously, I made multiple unsuccessful attempts to connect to the Dewalt dust extraction tube. I had to place temporary panels on each side of the saw to try to contain the dust. Thanks to Travis hard work on providing a unique solution to this problem. I used the Shop Nation plans for the Ultimate Cabinets and am very satisfied. Thanks again. Frank in Baton Rouge, LA.
Steve C.
Doesn’t come with instructions. I also thought it took extra little no bolts. I figured out after a while of engineering to use the same bolt that was a good idea. Not even a piece of paper inside the box. Took a while but I got it.
As far as it working it works better than the one that came with it. A piece of wood took it out first month. I was so mad sorry I can give a better rate.
Jay P.
Well...so far...it's a brand new saw so I'm still making test cuts before she goes onto the site...But I can already tell that the Shop Nation dust collection is AMAZING!!!.. I am impressed with the design and engineering so much, That everyone I know that has this model will be ordering and installing ASAP...Thanks for a great product!!! J.
Concetta M.
Installation was a breeze. It works just as described. It's not perfect but 95% BETTER than before. Then again, nothing is perfect but this is close.
John H.
Great accessory,big big difference in the amount of sawdust that this item gets rid of.,Thankyou
bernard d.
the product was easy to install and works as expected. I like it and would reccomend it to anyone.
Robert L.
It's better than the original but not as good as I hoped. I think that if the boot was wider it would collect more dust. It's fine if your cut is narrow but on wide cuts the boot just doesn't do a good job.
David
It's definitely an upgrade from stock. I would buy again.
Shane S.
It was easy to install looks good and works great
keith c.
Awesome Awesome Awesome Product
Chris D.
The dust collection performed like a champ until it ran into the wrong off cut (see pictures). I am going to add a little reinforcement on the new one when it arrives.
Michael R.
Just installed and it works great. Made an adapter to connect my 4" dust collector.
Krzysztof
It's much better than the original dust collector!
KARTHIK
Did the job, say about 90%of the dust gets collected. Worth the money, I added two 3” squares of similar material to the collection wings by gluing it to increase catchment area
Bern
I. Put it on machine but haven’t tried it yet. But putting on was very easy .
Robert F.
It works amazing. It’s just like in the video I have great suction would buy another one if I had another saw
Baron B.
It really works. Makes the one it comes with worthless!
Brian M.
I have a crush on the new upgrade.
Jeremy S.
Amazing improvement on the dewalt east to install. Definitely worth it if you can’t build a giant station with a containment unit.
Mitchell H.
This does an amazing job. I do trim carpentry and this has greatly reduced the dust output over stock. Highly recommend!
Eric M.
Using the stock dust collection was a huge pain. It was obviously designed to be used with no suction, expecting the bag to do all the work. As soon as you connect it to suction, the little flaps would collapse in and actually prevent dust collection. With your unit installed, it is virtually dust-free. Awesome work!
Michael A.
This dust collection device work very well.
It catches almost all the dust produced by my saw. I am very pleased.
Michael R.
Well engineered, made with quality materials, only a few minutes to install and a vast improvement over stock dust collection….
Daniel B.
Significant reduction in sawdust. After making 9 cuts through a 4x4 I had about the same amount of sawdust around the saw that I would have had with a single cut using the OEM dust collection. Expanding the rubber "catcher" of this out an additional inch on each side would likely eliminate all sawdust on the saw.
Samuel J.
A thousand times better than the default DeWalt dust collector!
Cecilia T.
No customer service here. No phone, no email response, no nothing. The thing falls apart.
Paul O.
So far so good. Works like a charm. Sure helps control the dust. Love it.
Michael C.
Super easy install. Works so much better than the original that came with the saw. I'm EXTREMELY happy with this purchase. Thank you!
Orrin K.
Just received my dust chute for my Dewalt DWS779 saw. Very easy installation because I had already removed the stock dust chute as it was completely useless. I tried to make my own solution some time back (shop nation didn't have one then). While it worked pretty good, I couldn't make any compound cuts with it. Which I thought I would be ok with but found it to be a pain when I needed to. I removed my solution and installed the new one in just 10 minutes or so. Did not need instructions as it seemed to be very easy to figure out. I knew where it went from the pictures, the rest was easy. Initial cuts seem to work really well. It seems so simple, but I know it took a lot of trial and error to get right. It makes me wonder why the stock system is so bad when this seems so easy. There must be some reason it didn't come with a solution like this, But I don't know what it would be.
Daniel J.
Dust shoot works amazing. Only complaint is it's pretty much impossible to change the blade when the shoot is installed. You pretty much have to take it off to remove/replace the blade.
Rod S.
I'm hoping this is worth the wait. I placed my order two weeks ago, and it only shipped three days ago. With holidays and weekends, it will have taken about three weeks to reach me. I can't figure out why it took them so long to "fulfill" the order.
Efren R.
I tried just hooking up my shop vac to the Dewalt dust port and the rubber cone would just collapse inwards. Your new design works so well that Dewalt should pay you a fortune to incorporate your design for all future miter saw designs..
Warren N.
Ordered 19 Feb 24, called 28 Mar, Rockler forecast mid May for arrival. Back ordered for months, finally made my own and it works just fine. Mine was less than $25 for material. My time is free.
Tyler D.
Total game changer! It's easy to install and it definitely works. I've tried with and without this dust collection, and the difference is astounding. It doesn't capture everything, which I believe would be impossible without some sort of hood, but it captures about 90% of the dust. Great work, man!
Gregory R.
It was so easy to install, I thought I was doing it wrong. Great upgrade to my 779. 80-90% more effective.
Aaron
Fantastic product! Improves dust collection ten fold. I have already recommended this project to several other friends!
John S.
Instructions were clear and easy to follow. Dust collection is much better than the factory poor dust collection. We’ll worth the money.
Michael K.
Works as advertised!
Michael A.
The amount of dust that is left after making a cut with this item installed on the saw is night and day difference. Would highly recommend it to anybody looking to step up their dust collection.
Wendy
Excellent product now let’s hope it clears the dust problem! Well thought out could use instructions-
Clark Y.
i am setting up my woodworking tools in a new shop, and i had a homemade dust collector, whcih did not work well in the old shop. the new device, which is a lot cheaper, i much more effective in collecting. i saved money an essential shop space. very happy with the new system
Laura T.
Very happy with this product - perfect for our workshop use.
Paul A.
Loved the video instructions on how to install, don’t think I’ve ever had that before. It works as advertised, not 100% of the dust but sooooooooooo much better.
William J.
Installed the new dust shroud on my dewalt miter saw and it works so much better than the factory crap that came on it. I’m very happy with my purchase.
Chris
Great product thank you
Roy B.
You don't really realise how ineffective the original system was until you replace it with one of yours! The orignal was truly bordering on useless. Dewalt certainly did not come up with anything that was up to the task. If you have some skills to attach this unit, I would say, don't hesitate! You have a design that helps a great deal!
Mitzi B.
I wish I had this years ago!
Paul M.
This thing was easier to put on than a condom!
Stephen
I didn’t other this. It doesn’t fit my saw
Dave B.
Definitely an improvement over stock dust collection. Get some dust back wash with shop vac. Will see what happens when hooked to central dust system.
It's a remarkable invention and a credit to entrepreneurship.
Jamie T.
I ordered this for a different model saw. He said I could return it if it didn’t fit. It will fit with a little alteration. Thanks.
Scott B.
It took a few weeks for my part, but I was not disappointed. It came with everything I needed and fit perfectly on my older DW718. Thank you and well done.
gary a.
Works very well. Gets the far majority of the saw dust. Very happy with it. Thank you.
Patrick A.
Finally a simple but effective solution to drastically improve dust collection from the miter saw - thank you!
Todd H.
No more sawdust flying everywhere!!
ken k.
A definite difference!!!. I'm so happy someone decided to try and succeed in improving the dust collection on this and other saws. It does make me wonder though, if one (obviously smart) man can greatly improve the biggest issue with miter saws, did this company even apply any R&D to it?
Paul H.
easy to install and does a great job with dust collection.
Paul C.
It took a little bit of time to receive my dust collection system but it was well
Worth the wait. It really shocked me at how well this dust collection system works. Yes I'd buy it again without questioning it. I highly recommend this system
Duane F.
The product looks great but I have not had the opportunity to install and try it out yet. I did find the “Shop” website to be a bit confusing but in all fairness I have never used it before. Maybe with more familiarity I would find it more user friendly. I’m anxious to try my new product.
David W.
Installation was simple by following video. Tried few test cuts noticed huge improvement. Very happy with my purchase would recommend.
Mark H.
