Fit very well. Just what i was looking for. Glad you guys made it for the DW708.
Douglas S.
Installation was easy. Still haven’t used it yet. Need to budget some shop time.
Thad R.
Good dust collection, sturdy construction and easy installation.
Bradley M.
Easy installation, works really well
Stephen S.
Works as advertised
Jack V.
Fit like a glove, works beautiful
Allan W.
The dust collector worked really well. When attached to my shop vac hose it collected approximately 80% of the dust.
Jim R.
works!!
Keith K.
Works well.
Mark K.
I received my order and I gotta say, it looks really nice. Much better than I thought it would to be honest.
I have not had the oppertunity to install or use it yet but looks legit! I believe it will meet my expectations if not exceed them.
Thank you Shop Nation
Robert M.
Well made parts, and easy 5 minute installation. I do suggest drilling a 1/16' hole through the rubber flap while holding it in place to make it easier to put in the four small screws which will hold the flap in place.
My first test cut seemed to collect the dust very well, but until I get into my first project will I be able to compare how much of a difference this will make overall. Hopefully I can update this review once that happens.
Roland L.
setup was easy and works just like it was meant to
Dan G.
Simple clean install. Works very well.
Jimmie B.
Was easy to install. It gets most of the sawdust. Very satisfied.
Brian F.
This was a direct bolt on unit. I could not have been any easier and it works great!!!
Kelvin A.
Everthing hooked up well. I'm going from my 4" dust collection hose to the smaller hose going to the saw collection attachment. I have lots of suction at the 4" hose, but it seems I'm loosing some of going to the smaller hose. Still works good, though, and, I'm still trouble shooting to see where, I'm loosing suction .
John R.
Only used the saw a couple times since installing the dust collection attachment but can already tell it’s awesome. I have a hood attachment to help minimize mess . Usually with original dust vac setup there is a lot of wood chips n dust in hood. With this setup I hardly had any . Shop Nation nailed it with this. I would say getting 80-90 percent of it right at the blade. Highly recommended it.
Michael A.
Had low expectations, but it actually works pretty well. Not 100%, but probably close to 90% which isn’t bad for something like this. Hopefully it holds up.
Rick H.
I installed the Shop Nation revised Dust Collection attachment on our retirement community shop's DW708 Miter Saw and received great feedback from those using that machine. A tiny bit of extraneous dust particles is all that's left... FAR BETTER than the original setup!
Michael E.
I contacted Customer Service since I can't scan a QR code by email Christmas day by email. Very surprisingly I had a reply within minutes giving me a link for the installation video. Install was easy and the collector works very well. My entire experience with Shop Nation was very good.
Timothy D M.
I have a Dewalt 708 and the factory dust collection port hooked to a shop vac was pretty bad. So the bar is low. The shop nation product is far superior and well worth the purchase.
PETER W.
I have it attached to my saw and this is well designed. I haven't used it yet but it's going to work very well. Glad I found your YouTube channel. Thank You!
Steven G.
Great product!!
tony h.
works well, not 100% dust collection but far better than the original dust collection adaptor.

Easy installation and very effective dust collection.
Carl B.
A 30-yr problem solved in about ten minutes!! You guys hit this out the ballpark and I couldn't be happier! Thank you, guys, and keep up the great work!
Sebastian D.
Great product!
AJ J.
I had a type 4 DW708. I knew I'd have to drill and tap some holes in the saw dust cover which I did without any issues. The 3D print for the outside rim of the main dust collector body was too thin in the area where the rubber chute attaches. As a matter of fact, it came to me broken in this area about 1/3 of the way around the body. I could still attach the rubber chute, but I'm concerned about how long it will hold since it's only attached through the rubber and into the inner rim. Not sure if this is a design flaw or a quality control problem (or both) but it would be nice to have a replacement body with a fully functional rim.
James B.
Doesn’t work much better than the original, but I haven’t given up on it yet. I plan on purchasing an upgrading dust collection system that will provide better suction.
Rob H.
I couldn't find a replacement for the dust port that cracked over time. This works better than the original design. The only minor issue was that the saw blade touched the plastic when installed. A quick spin of the blade cut out the perfect size notch.
Christian H.
I would say it collects about 75 to 80 percent of the sawdust on 90 degree cuts. It collects less on beveled// or\\ cuts. Vertical 45 seems to the same as 90"s. But better then the box I had before collecting dust.
Christian
Keith L.
Good tool.
sean m.
unfortunately I would have to make modifications to my saws fence or my auxiliary fence in order to get it to cut anything other than a 90 deg cut. It looks like it would work, but I didn't want to alter either fence
Tom B.
I had to modify the dust chute by filing the saw blade gap wider to the left side as the blade was interfering with (hitting) the chute by about 1/16” or half the blade width. With the wider blade gap the assembly works great.
Michael C.
Did not fit my saw
David
Great fix for poor design on a great tool.
Dan T.
did not fit
Bernard B.
I have a variant DeWalt 708 mitre saw. A little modification was necessary to install dust hood properly. It works extremely well collecting 95% of sawdust. The installation video was excellent. Pleased with purchase.
Charles A.
This dust pick-up is well engineered and built to high tolerance. Impressive, goes together well and works great.
Hal G.
Direction of the discharge hose off the chute should be aimed more straight back and not upward. Sharp directional changes along with the corrugations of the hose slow the sawdust down. Hose Adapter fittings don't fit. Take this from a retired engineer.
Paul B.
The dust collector for my dewalt 708 works awesome. Better than I expected. The funny thing is I have the type 4 model and had to drill an hole and add a bolt in the blade housing to attach it. I selected the saw model number when I ordered it. Didn’t read further about how it wouldn’t work on the type 4 model. Glad I did. Super simple attachment and is on there rock solid without any modifications to your collector. Thanks for a solution for the worst dust collection system ever created.
Mahlon F.
Very happy with the way this fits and works!
Michael K.
I would make the 2 1/2 dust collector neck longer.
David M.
Didn't fit. I have a.

Stuart S.
This is a great addition to my shop.
Thanks for coming up with this.
Patrick H.
love it
Robert B.
Months ago I watched your video on the testing and development of these vacuum attachments so I was super excited when I realized you had one designed for my DeWalt.
I have never had decent dust collection and this works better than expected!
Good job!
Andy P.
I had to use a number of different size vacuum connectors to hook up the hoses.
David M.
Fit my saw perfectly and after several sessions using I am pleased with the results. A very high percentage of dusr was collected.
Howard T.
It fit perfectly. Works great
Robert B.
I was skeptical at 1st, thinking it wouldn't fit. But after watching the installation video, it came together easily and works great!
paul s.
I installed the dust boot and the hose adapter first; then cut a hole in the side of my dust collection cabine. Then installed a Rockler 2" to 4" blast gate and ran it to the other 4" port on my Jet big dust collector. I tried to send you pictures, but i wasn't able to send them. I think i could send them if i have your email address. Love your produt!!!
Andrew S.
Plastic broke immediately. Also did not fit properly. Really disappointed!
PJ F.
Cool product!
Charlie W.
It fit perfectly and the installation vide was very helpful. It makes a huge difference on my dw708 I couldn’t be more satisfied
Thanks
Charlie
Thomas B.
Works very well. Big improvement over the stock collection system. Only negative comment is that it did not attach to my saw like the directions said to do. I had to modify my saw to make it fit. D it works well.
Brian P.
A marked improvement, thank you for spending time to design it.
Cathy B.
I have a type four.The dust shoot does not fit a type four
Paul
Fantastic product, fits and works a dream, highly recommended
David R.
Seems to work ok but the suction of my very old rigid shop vac sucks in the flaps (collapses them). I have to relieve the suction by slightly disconnecting the hose. Kinda janky.
Mike K.
Fits perfect
kathleen m.
Does not fit and was told it was the right size
John E P.
This was easy to install. Works great, helps collect approximately 75% more dust and particles than extraction over bag port.
Thomas C.
My miter saw is one of the biggest dust makers in my shop. I only put the adapter on my saw and did a couple of test cuts but the volume of dust generated was exponentially reduced!
Paul G.
It fit and no issues will report back on how it works
Clive a.
Loved the look of this. It would cut out the du a t. Only problem so far I don't have the correct fitting to attach to my shop vac. Secondly there are no instrjction for install and a list of fitting required to attach would have helped. But so far I am happy.
Dorothee N.
My husband is very pleased with the new attachment
carroll h.
My saw is a DW 708 model 4. It does not fit. I have sent it back
Eric R.
Fit perfectly, and works amazing. Really cut down on the dust my miter saw produces.
Michael R.
I’ve had my DeWalt miter saw for years and had grown tired of it spraying my shop with dust no matter what I did. When I heard about your product I knew I had to try it but still had pretty low expectations from previous attempts. Today I was thrilled when milling materials had had almost no dust coming off the saw. What a great, simple and elegant design. I can’t thank you enough.
Brian F.
Had the wrong type 708 did not fit my fault eyes were bad and could not read the small print on the saw identified tag. Back to using my festool vac.
Tom T.
big improvement on my old dewalt!!
Terry N.
It essentially easy to install and works well.
Jamie G.
Makes a noticeable difference. Helpful for a cleaner work space.
Mark F.
Excellent instructions and a very good fit to my DW708. My ShopVac has a larger hose but the transition coupler included in the kit fits perfectly. The locking lugs twist into a very secure fit, no tape or clamps required. It appears that 90-95% of the sawdust is caught.
Daniel L.
Works and fits great. Now my shop will stay cleaner. Thank you.
Joe D.
Had to return it because I didn't read every word. I have a type 4 dw708 which it doesn't fit. Otherwise it looks like a well designed and thought out piece.
David T.
Well made. It perfectly works great.
James C.
Easy installation. Perfect fit. Does an excellent job on cuts the are “one board” thick. When I stack 3-4 boards to cut at the same time, dust collection is significantly diminished. Light amounts of dust spread across the saw and wood being cut.
It is still worth the money.
Dennis F.
Easy to install and reduced dust by about 90%. Highly recommend!
Joseph C.
Installation was straightforward. Does good job of keeping down dust. Good item!
Robert S.
Love the adapter…works like a champ.
Grant M.
Good packaging, extra parts. My only issue was it took almost two weeks to arrive.
Dennis A.
Order and delivery went as usual. Installation did not go so well. None of the holes on my DW708 matched the holes in the dust chute you provided. I guess I have an older model. I had to drill and tap a couple of holes in my blade guard.
Installation instructions were totally insufficient. In fact, there were none. I attempted to watch the Youtube video but could not get past the ads for other totally unrelated products. A simple picture diagram would have sufficed.
Overall, the product performs as expected.
JOHN M.
Works as it should easy to install. We will see how it lasts
Matthew D.
With a little modification, I was able to install it on my series 4. Works 100 times better than the stock collection. So happy with my purchase.
Melissa M.
A big improvement from the original chute.
Kevyn B.
The installation was simple and stright forward. Took less than 15 minutes. The image shows how perfect it fit on my old 708 model saw. The video shows how concentrated the saw dust becomes at the vacuum port. This is so much better than any of the purchased or home brew solutions I have tried. Customer service is great as I transposed some numbers and initially ordered the part for a 780. They accepted the return and sent the correct part for the 708 quickly.
Paul I.
It's well made did not fit my saw. I should have paid attention to the description my saw is the one it will not work with. Going to see if I can mount to my saw anyway
Paul R.
I have had this saw for years, I have tried a dozen ways to collect even a portion of the waste that comes off the blade. This thing was easy to install fit like a champ and collected almost every single bit.

I installed the port on my 708 model DeWalt sliding miter saw the dust Port collection work excellent. Very happy.
Michael M.
The installation was very easy using the video. The parts fit perfectly and the dust boot catches most of the sawdust. I won’t have a pile of sawdust behind the miter saw now. Small step forward for a cleaner shop.
Donald E.
Very well made. I was surprised that I could install it in less than 15 minutes. Every part fit exactly to my (old) DeWalt
Sliding miter saw. I haven’t used it enough to evaluate it’s effectiveness but thus far I am very pleased.
Mark K.
My older DW708 saw lost its dust collector many years ago. Your collector works and fit perfectly. Thanks
Jeff S.
Improved the dust collection by about 90%! Great product and very detailed instructions!
Mark C.
What a wonderful solution for a problem I’ve been fighting for years.
It works beautifully.
Thank you
Dave W.
The chute is well designed and appears to be very strong. Time will tell how durable it is over it's lifetime, however the reason I only gave 4 stars instead of 5 is because I think there should be some kind of bracket for the hose to mount to in the back of the saw. I understand that not everyone will want the hose to exit at the bottom, but I worry that the weight of the hose will fatigue the material if not supported in some way.
Larry C.
The attachment went on easily after looking at the video. I hooked it up to my 15 gallon shopvac and cut up a ton of scrap for disposal, probably 50 passes. I used all the angles with no trouble from the hose going under the motor. So, the saw functions perfectly and the dust collection was about 100% into the shopvac. Now I can finally fix a permanent position for this saw and connect it to my dust collection system.
Great product. Thanks.
