Dust collection is very important to me. Just installed the dust collection on my Bosch GCM12SD. All I can say is WOW. The dust extraction vs the stock unit is exceptional and I would highly recommend it. Just remember its a saw and not a plow. If you force the cut your results might not be representative of what I experienced. Steady feed not forced feed.
Phillip V.
This works great. I would say it catches about 90% of the normal dust coming off the saw. I usually had to clean up after every few cuts to keep things from getting out of hand. With this attachment, I can work for several hours between clean ups. I would highly recommend it if you are trying to keep the area around your saw clean.

hope this one last longer than the first one did . less than a year ? around the collar is to thin and will break ? to nme needs to be heavier made.
Tyler H.
This is my second dust collection attachment! Both have been way better at collecting the dust compared to the factory system.

IT DOES A BETTER JOB VACUUMING THE SAW DUST AS IT COMES OFF THE BLADE THAN THE ORIGINAL DUST COLLECTOR. THE DOWN SIDE IS I CAN ONLY CUT 2 INCH THICK BOARDS NOW. THE SHOOT IS TO CLOSE TO THE FENCE AND IS LOWER THAN THE ORIGINAL DUST SHOOT.
Bill H.
It installed easily. I like the additional hose on version 2. I have not used it a great deal yet. I had version 1 and it was really effective (until I broke it). I can expect the same or better performance on this version.
In the future, I’ll use a hand saw for anything that will produce small, potentially dynamic off cuts.
Thanks Travis.
Christopher F.
I have been using this dust chute since Trevor has started selling it. I upgraded when he came out with the new version. This dust chute helps out tremendously. Highly recommend it. Great customer service as well.
Rodney O.
I followed this product for a couple of years. I think he did the DeWalt saw first and then maybe the 12" Bosch.
I tried two or three other methods of dust collection on my Bosch 10" saw and they weren't working very well. The wall behind the saw was always covered with dust and I had to take them off when I made any cut that wasn't at 90 degrees. I found Shop Nation on Youtube again and watched with a great deal of interest while he demonstrated Gen II for my 10" Bosch. I'm very pleased with how effective it is at collecting the dust right off the blade. I'm impressed that he kept trying to improve the product and am very happy that I've got one in my shop now. It is made very well, installation was easy and I can highly recommend this product.
Andre B.
Works perfectly to connect to my dust collector.
Tom L.
Install easy. Works OK, I guess. Maybe I'm expecting too much. I'm pulling a lot of static pressure and volume but still getting more dust around saw than I had hoped. I'll have to add a hood and a second vacuum port to get the results I want.
Randy W.
Easy to install, and does a much better job collecting dust!
eric w.
Install was easy and it worked great on the first few test cuts.
Calvin P.
Works really well
Phillip
Excellent fit and easy to install. It does a great job at capturing most of the dust. I was able to work at the saw for several hours doing repeated cuts and only had to vacuum the surrounding area lightly at the very end. After a few hundred cuts the surface dust was minimal.
Dennis C.
Beautifully made. Fits perfectly. Improves vacuum effectiveness. Great installation video. Very pleased!
Jeffrey W.
Works great! Much better than OEM chute.
Len H.
I had used a similar product from another manufacturer, but the rubber flange kept coming off and pieces of wood would get stuck in the chute.
Your product is much much better than the other one. Worth the money.
Pierre-Paul B.
Had to replace the first dust collector, lent my chop saw and the dude didn’t hang on to his piece of wood, it took off and shattered my Shop Nation dust collector,He payed for the new one .It seems to perform even better then my first one Great Product , Highly Recommend!
Graig M.
Installation information good and greatly improved dust pickup.
Jurriaan T.
The order and payment process on the website were effortless as is to be expected from a modern e-business. I received an email with a tracking link within hours of ordering and the package arrived well within the stated expected delivery time. The packaging was on point. The hose transition that I received was either a different one than in the installation video (mine did not have the "ears" to feed the tie wraps through) or it was missing from the package but I just tied them around the flex hose instead. Would certainly buy from ShopNation again.
Bill M.
Reduced dust considerably. Took a little longer than I thought to install but directions were pretty good. Thanks.
Donald B.
Much better design .
Ban L.
Watching the installation video was extremely helpful.
Encountered no problems.
Thanks for helping & sharing your experience.
Federico M.
Nice design, perfect assembly measures
Yan T.
Not cheap but worthwhile - it makes a difference even without attaching to a vac.
Chris S.
Easy install. Great instruction video. Well made. The dust collection on my miter saw is now excellent! I have spent some time trying to make something to help reduce the mess my saw makes with limited success. This is exactly what I've been looking for. Thanks Shop Nation.
Mark B.
Awesome addition to my Bosch miter saw.
Bruce A.
On the cuts I do most often (one or two boards with relatively small cross-sections), the dust collection is ideal. It's a bit less than ideal when I'm doing wider and deeper cuts.
I have attached a photo of the back of the bottom piece, where the rubber flange fits in. You should be able to see (I've highlighted it with a white marker) that the thin outermost bit has cracked — and I assure you that I was using the utmost care! The device is still operational, but Version 3 might want to have a little bit more plastic back there.
Gary G.
Greatest addition to the Bosch miter saw. Fantastic reduction in dust.
Ganesh R.
Pretty good, though the attachment with the zip ties to the power cord is not so great, I used wire to tie it to the arm and then suspend the hose and power cord from above giving full easy movement.
Vicki L.
This has made such a difference in my saw's dust collection. Very well designed and a good value, especially if you don't like dust everywhere. Thanks
Dennis C.
The dust chute for our woodworking club's Bosch miter saw is a big improvement. It seems to be very well made and fit perfectly. But as with most upgrades, there is a sacrifice. Because the chute is so much closer to the blade, it is no longer possible to use a zero-clearance fence. My biggest disappointment was that there were no instructions included, or on the website. By looking at pictures on the website I was able to figure it out, but basic instructions would have been helpful.
Melvin C.
Easy to install. Works great!
Scot W.
The install was easy and the device does a much better job of collecting dust. Only issue was the lock tite on my Bosch saw was so tight I had to drill out one screw. Not a big deal, but odd that only one screw was so tight I stripped the head of the screw. The dust collection is now superior to the original.
AL N.
I love it was very easy to install. Only had to do a couple of tweaks to improve the saw dust path. It captures 99% of the dust.
chip
This thing is fantastic - super easy to install, and does the job it was created to do.
James M.
It works better than the stock system but not as well as youtube led me to believe. I reckon the tiny flexible hose is a major pinch point that really compromises air flow. Meh...
Diana B.
Great product! Very easy to install.
Thanks!
Andrew S.
Easy install. Well designed. Works great. Instructions were great on the video.
Mike L.
Easy to install works great
Michael M.
It works a whole lot better than the stock dust collector! I highly recommend it
Maxwell O.
Great solution! replaced oem dust collection, installation video was money and sawdust doesn't stand a chance. Great product!
Evan R.
I absolutely love your dust collection add-on for my Bosch miter saw. I appreciate that you color matched it as well. The instructions were very simple to follow and accurate. I would recommend this add-on to anyone!
Kevin J.
Installed easily and works great!
Edi A.
Excellent installation video that was well thought out and presented. All the parts were included in the box. The initial dust control tests exceeded expectations.
Excellent product design and function.
Now the only unknown is durability but that will come with time and use.
Thanks
Ed A.
Jeff T.
Good upgrade to original dust chute. (My original shattered when large wood chip hit it at max speed.) Fits tight and works well with articulating arm of my Bosch Miter Saw. Estimate it collects 85-90% of dust.
John R.
Tested and it really does capture sooo much more of the dust! Also really like the QR code link for the installation video. Definitely made it easier to put on. Great design!
Matthew H.
Fantastic improvement over stock dust collection. I would say that it’s even better than the Kapex’s dust collection now. Great product.
Terrill C.
Works pretty well.
Randy P.
Appears to be working extremely well…, as described
Stephen G.
Reduced my 12inch Bosche dust by roughly 95%. Great product, easy to install Forget the big, ugly boxes.
Beverley J.
Install was quick and easy. Dust still escapes, but it is soooo much better now. Thank you, ShopNation.
Michael
This is a solid peice of kit! Assembly was easy, aided greatly by Shop Nation’s video, accessed via a QR code. The dust chute works a treat, scooping exacly where the sawdust is jettisoned from workpeice. The flex pipe that attached the assembly to your vacuum is super flexy, yet quite strong.
The only wish i have is that the pipe and outlet was 2.5 straight thru so I could get even more suction at the source. Although, I do see the obvious space constraints that would make this a challenge.
You made a great tool even better with this nifty peice of engineering, thank you!
Luis N.
Great improvement. I've cannibalized the stock connector to use with my Cen-Tec hose.
I think the Bosch design could be improved and eliminating the zip ties and half the length of the hose. You see, there are two holes left from the stock chute that could be used to mount Shopnation's connector by adding a lip on it. Just an opinion. I'm still happy with my purchase.
Peter B.
Liked the included QR code that links to installation video. Easy to install. Works well, but is not perfect. Still a bit of sawdust but big improvement.
Jay S.
Good instruction video. Works great.
Ronnie S.
Fits perfectly on my Bosch miter saw, makes a huge difference in the dust collection. Highly recommend
Ed A.
My dust shut went on so easy. I love the way it works very little dust.
Craig L.
The design definitely captures more dust but I don’t care for the dust hose and connector design. Attaching it to the power cord with zip ties is way too flimsy and could cause premature wear.
I don’t know why you didn’t 3D print a connector that could utilize the mounting holes for the OEM collector tube. Also I can not use my zero clearance setup because the extended rubber flap doesn’t clear it.
James B.
Install was easy, quality is good, works very well!
John W.
The dust chute is working much better then the factory one that was supplied with my saw. It reduced the amount of saw dust that was not extracted from my collection system. It was easy to install and I have not found any obstructions while making bevel cuts.
John A. M.
Easy install, great dust collection.
Philip M.
It's not perfect dust collection but an order of magnitude better than the original.
john f.
what an improvement from the stock dust collection. this is a must have and collects 99% of the saw dust, I've only had it for a week and love it!!
San L.
Perfect! Great quality and most of all it works. Thank you !
Judd B.
Perfect fit, fast shipping and actually works very well to collect sawdust. I had one and allowed a piece to let lose and fly up and damage the first one. Second one installed in two minutes and permanently set up in my shop to shopvac under the counter. Glad to support Shop Nation making more adaptable parts than the original manufacturers.
manuel d.
It isn’t like I thought it will be the exhaust portions is to small for suction of dust but is a lot better than the original it was when I purchased my miter saw
Kenneth C.
I replaced my Gen 1 with the new one and only had to remove the thumb screws. When I relocate it I will probably need a different adapter. It definitely catches more sawdust than my Hitachi.
Jarrod M.
Its very good but I will add a dust hood to my miter saw as well to keep my shop clean.
Chris R.
The extractor head fitted fairly easy and the adaptors were not needed as the dust hose fitted on top of the extension tube provided and I had a reducer that fitted on both sided and held them up with a clamp. My hose was fairly stiff and kept on pulling the smaller soft hose so I put a brace at the back and every thing works really well. Travis thank you for designing this adaptor and a special mention to your support team especially Lauren. Please keep up with the good work and God Bless.
Regards
Dr Chris Raman.
Robert F.
Best collector for that saw
Mark
Well designed and made. Fit perfectly but installation video should include an additional suggestion to remove blade guard to make removing existing saw blade guard screws easier, especially one that is blocked by the power cord.
Alyn H D.
It didn’t fit the saw exactly the way it should have the blade cut into the device and it couldn’t be pulled down any lower, but it works for now.
Betty H.
Easy to put together. Cutting anything other than a 3/4 board using the radial arm pushes the rubber guard up and defeats the dust collection. Using as a chop saw it works well, not as well as in the video, but it does cut way down on the saw dust.
Bill C.
First chute was broken. Then I was charged $4 to process a replacement. Tacky!!!
CHUCK M.
The dust collector fit perfectly and works as advertised. Shipping was prompt. I Recommend the product to anyone who has a Bosch 12 inch miter saw.
Douglas B.
Installation was easy, instructional video was well done and easy to follow. The fit of the dust chute is excellent. I have not been able to see it in action yet, but very excited to do so.
Ryan P.
Fits well, clean design, and works as shown on the YouTube video (i.e. very effective).
Scott T.
fit and finish was great, first couple of test cuts went well and dust extraction worked great.
MARCUS Y.
The dust collector did exactly what it said it would. The installation video was super clear. The extra limitations are pretty minor (thickness of cut is slightly limited mostly for sliding cuts.)
Neal Z.
Very easy to install and does a really great job collecting the sawdust.
A great improvement over the stock dust collection on the saw.
Ian B.
The unit installed beautifully and easily on my new Bosch Mitre Saw. Don’t have the vacuum set up yet so I can’t report on that aspect of performance but I’m confident it will be great.
Ian
Sascha Z.
Super easy to install (the most challenging is figuring out a good way to route the hose for the vacuum connection. The construction is sturdy, it's a very high quality print.
Craig O.
Install was simple and has increased the dust collection on the miter saw.
David P.
This product fits and works like a dream! The amount of dust it picks up is far beyond what the OE picked up. If you don't have one of these you are missing out on less time spending cleaning up! Highly recommended for the workshop!
Walt B.
It works great, it's only a miner thing ,the angle of the part that I hook up the hose could belittle more of an angle like the one in your video. But it does work, the hose presses up against the saw arm, but like I say it's working very well. I'm happy that I found out about your product!
Walt Babcock
Jeffrey L.
Works great! Excellent design and quality print. Really, really reduces the amount of dust that's not captured by miter saw cuts.
Great step by step video instructions for the install, which is appreciated. Watch the installation video all the way through one time, before following along. There's one screw in an awkward position on the Bosch axial glide and I would have known how to handle that easier, if I simply watched the video all the way through before starting my install.
Jeff C.
Fantastic quality!
Gregory M.
It was easy to install and it works very well. I thought I would have to hook up my shop vac with a reducer to get the most efficient dust collection. But I hooked up my Festool vacuum and it collected ALL dust. I was Omazed!
This is a 3D printed item but it is very stout and I have no doubt it will last a long time. It seemed kinda expensive, but isn't everything these days.
The S.
Great support and the dust collection is vastly improved.
Victor B.
So simple yet so effective in dust collection. Massive improvement from the OEM that came with the saw. Straight forward installation too!
Alec C.
It suckie up the dusty more gooder
Eric S.
All I expected it to be. Thanks!
Tere G.
This is the second dust chute I get. I got one for my Dewalt miter saw and got the Bosch Axial for my tiny shop. The dust chute is a MUST for me so I got another one. On my Dewalt I also have the Inspire Woodcraft Dust Throat system and together there is still some dust just to put it in perspective and so you manage your expectation. I was surprised how much dust was present with just the dust chute alone. The dust chute system is GREAT and I don't want to be without, but that is only one part to minimizing the dust.
Joel L.
Great installation video - easy to follow. A possible snag - when I installed, the item is not perfectly aligned to saw blade. One side is quite close to the blade, and I am hopeful it will not shift and start rubbing. Aside from that - it works quite well and dust extraction is much improved.
