easy replacment, results were night and day, would recomend for any brand
Jackson P.
Love it. 90% or more dust collection!
John F.
Great product. Vey easy to install
Robert L.
It works great. Thank you.
James F.
Works great cuts at least 90% of the dust compared to without it.
Robert S.
It works well! I had put my saw in a small Rockler paint tent with a vacuum on the OEM dust collection tube, so I've never had huge amounts of dust to clean up since most would fall in the tent. But I get much less in the tent now, and I won't have to vacuum out the tent as much anymore.
Rory N.
Works as advertized...
Graham H.
Outstanding bit of kit. Really well designed and fits perfectly. Easy to install and works so well. Thank you for doing this it makes a real difference to home Dudes like me
Phill W.
Arrived quickly, installation was very easy, and it works great! So much better than the factory dust collection. Highly recommended!! Great product.
Tony M.
It leaves more of a mess than I had with the original.
Larry P.
Have used it and it seems to catch most of the chips and dust.
Timothy R.
Huge improvement over the stock dust collection on the DeWalt. I wish I had done this years ago.
ERIC C.
This works great and was very easy to install. The only draw back is it interferes when changing blades, the blade slot should be a little wider.
Christopher H.
Dust collection is great. However the screw that go through the rubber and into the fitting could use a different fastening system. Screw stripped rubber torr almost immediately. I bought small bolts ,nuts , and washers. Seems to be a better option.
Bill
Didnt fit and i did ordered it wrong but cant return it
Steve S.
Super easy to install, and it is far superior to the stock dust collection on my Dewalt DWS779. Well worth the price!
Nicholas S.
easy install and works great!
Charles W.
This made a massive improvement in my miter saw’s dust collection. Well worth the money and a simple installation.
Thomas W.
It does capture more of the dust compared to the oem dust chute.
Ron S.
Fits perfectly and really works well. We’ll worth the small cost.
Jason S.
Was a bit concerned upon receipt as I saw that the housing was 3D printed. But the piece is solid. Scanned the QR code, watched the video and waltzed right through simple assembly steps. It only took a few minutes to complete the swap. Tested with my dust collection rig and am VERY impressed. A great improvement at a reasonable price.
GERARDO G.
This thing is slightly better than the OEM dust shroud; 8 of 10 opposed to 5 of 10... Once you go through the board, the dust gets pushed down, rendering the unit less effective as it moves with the blade. I am still happy with the purchase and would buy it again.
Tim K.
The dust collection system was straightforward to install. It works great in conjunction with an attached vacuum, but not that great when cutting without a vacuum attached (i.e., outdoor workspace). A bit pricey for what it includes.
Zachary R.
Works great! Very impressed !
Kip R.
Great product, fit perfect!!!!
Bobby B.
The well designed dust collectors works very well! Much better than the one that comes with the saw. Well made and the owner's video does a good job of showing how to install. An idea to ease the installation of the rubber part into the channel: add an adhesive to the channel to hold in place when screwing and use slightly larger screw. The 2 outside screws were difficult to get in correctly. Note to user: CHECK YOUR FENCES when pushing the saw back towards them. If too close, they can bend the rubber part a lot. This is NOT an issue with the part but in my case with the user :)
Michel K.
just like the video, perfect fit and explenation.
Collin F.
This was easy to install and is truly an upgrade. The factory only catches about 60% of the sawdust and this one catches 95% of the sawdust .
Kyle D.
The materials seem to be of a good quality, and I think they’ll hold up well over time.
However, I do have have two complaints. There were two flexible rubber dust shoes included, I wish at least one of them had come in a longer size. I can see how a longer one might get caught between the blade and the wood if you’re cutting thicker stock, but I cut a lot of thinner material (3/4” or less) and there is plenty of room for a longer rubber shoe that would (I think) dramatically improve the dust collection. I’m seeing quite a bit of dust escape between the wood and the bottom of the rubber shoe that I think would get sucked up if it were being diverted upward. So my suggestion would be to include different sizes of rubber material and a guide for which one to use depending on the thickness of what is normally being cut.
Second complaint is that when swapping blades the blade has to be pushed against the 3d printed portion and flex out past the arbor to remove the blade. You can still do it, but I think a little more thought could’ve gone into allowing enough clearance for easy blade changes.
Kent K.
Installed in 45 minutes and wow!, what a difference in the amount of dust. So much less and easy to connect the dust collection hose.
Kile W.
Great upgrade from the stock dust collection.
Lindsay G.
Works great. Easy to install.
Jerry W.
Well designed and easy to install.
KOH I.
Works great! Install video was exactly the correct amount of info, no excess or omissions.
JUSTIN C.
Definitely an upgrade to the original dust collector. Very easy to install and has allowed me to bring my work back in the garage without destroying it with dust. Would recommend it to anyone who has the DES780 or DWS779.
Cliff A.
This helps with dust collection so much. I am very impressed. I’d say 75% boost to the poor dust collection of the stock part on the DS-780.
Stephen G.
It fit well and install was easy. I am pleased with how well it collects dust when I use the saw in a chop motion. I am not too pleased when I use the saw out on the rails. The rubber collection piece catches on the saw and hits the blade. I have already ruined the first rubber piece . 2 were included. I may have to see if I can order more.
Doug K.
Fits perfectly on my Dewalt 779. Easy to install and the actual sawdust collection is at least 80 - 90% better than the stock Dewalt system. Shop stays cleaner and I'm not shedding as much "Man Glitter" at the end of the day!
Pete B.
Works great but the amount of emails this website sends is unreal.
Charles F.
Very easy to install. The video was very helpful I like the flexible hose. It makes connections really easy. Well worth the money
Nathan B.
Love the improved dust collection! A lot of functional design and creativity went into building it. I will be back for other products.
Corey
Absolutely recommend this product. Great fit, durable product, works very efficiently and effectively. Would recommend every single time, and already have sang your companies craftsmanship and product. 5 out of 5 stars. No more dusty dewalt dust collection!!!! YES!!!!
Pat G.
Generally really good. However on the 1st test run I had the fence pretty narrow and the saw cut the replaceable rubber funnel. At least 2 came with it and I need to be careful with the fence.
Daniel V.
Don't want to review.
dan k.
just got it installed. great instructions and quality product!
ray k.
The new dust chute did not work any better than the original dust chute for my DW 780.. So, I tried the add on vacuum connection and it work 100% better than anything that I have, So I am always going to use my vacuum anytime I use my DW780 Miter Saw.
William H.
The dust collection system is better than the original DeWalt collector, but in my instance it is not as good as I thought it would be. It works great on straight cuts. On miter cuts and thicker boards there is a lot of dust bounce-back off the rubber “catcher” which makes quite a mess. Overall it is okay, but not great.
Steve H.
Works as advertised. I don’t have sawdust flying everywhere now
Scott W.
easy to install and works great
Stephen K.
Product was easy to install with provided YouTube instructions and dust collection significantly improved.
Rayford M.
installed easily and worked as described very satisfied.
Stephen B.
Very pleased with this kit addition on the Dewalt miter saw. Huge improvement in dust collection. Strongly recommend.
Daniel M.
It really reduced the sawdust flying around compared to the original design.
I really like it and it was easy to install.
Thanks
patrick d.
Worked well until it didn’t. Injection molding failed in two places seemingly simultaneously after about 18 months of very intermittent use. I am a hobbyist that volunteers building sets for a theater company and I build household projects, I use the miter saw maybe a couple times a month. The failure was pretty catastrophic and the rubber skirt got caught up in the blade. Worked well enough I’m coming back to get another one though!
DAVID T.
The order can in on time. The product was so easy to install, with the aid of the video
Danny R.
The item solved my miter saw issue
Douglas W.
Game changer, for sure! I not only have your dust collector on the saw connected to a Shop Vac, but I also have a collection pan under the saw connected to the stand that is hooked up to my shop dust collection system. Whatever isn’t caught at the blade, is caught in the pan and sucked away. 4 Stars!!
Steven M.
Nice design, works much better than OEM, but I wish the collection flow area inside the printed plastic collector was smoother so dust would not collect there. Install was easy and instructions clear.
ROBERT S.
Was a challenge to remove the old parts and install the new one, but it was worth it. The dust is now greatly reduced.
Michael S.
I like the DC mod much more than what came on my Dewalt saw, Im sure I will like it more when I get a chance to hook it up to my dust collector system.
Sanjay D.
Some dust but added a dust collector funnel and that cut dust even more.
Alec P.
Works beautifully! Very quick and easy to install this beauty. Thanks Shop Nation!
Jerry W.
Amazing how much dust collection improves with the kit. 3 days of remodeling rooms with T&G and I was able to clean up the office furniture with a little dusting.
Mike D.
Today was my first time using the saw since I installed the dust collection shield. I'm still seeing more dust than I was expecting to see. I'm aware it was never stated that it would collect all the dust, but I still see a lot of dust collected around the saw but this shield does prevent a lot of the dust from being sent several feet beyond where the saw sits.
Both the amount of saw dust is less and in a much smaller foot print than before.
At this point in time I would recommend buying this it does cut down on amount of saw dust.
Travis L.
I bought this with high hopes that initially were lived up to. Clean up after projects was minimal compared to before and the product worked well. At that point I would've given it 4 or 5 stars. Less than a year after purchase the plastic casing by the blade was cracked significantly where the flap is screwed in (seen in picture). Being that I bought this less than a year ago I reached out to ShopNation about the warranty, and I was informed they only warranty the product for 30 days (which tells me what the company thinks of their own product). To be clear, woodworking is a hobby not a profession for me. I may use my saw for 2 or 3 projects in a couple weeks, then might not touch it again for 2-3 months. My point is I don't put it under strenuous work loads. There is no reason it should have broken this soon with this little use.
Lastly if you are working with trim or boards that have a high vertical under the saw the rubber shield will fold up into your blade, there is no avoiding this. The good thing is they do supply you with a couple, but be prepared to replace often depending on the type of cuts you frequently make.
Tim B.
Great directions and it's a huge improvement in dust collection!
Stephen F.
This dust collection upgrade is well worth the time and money. It dramatically reduces the miter saw dust.
Excellent product!!
Bobby B.
The part and order/shipping/communication were all excellent! The part works well, however, could use a couple of minor tweaks for improvement. I can share those with the creator directly if appropriate.
Richard D.
Simple to install, so much better dust collection. Going to be a much cleaner shop.
David C.
This dust collection accessory is a great and welcome system over what the miter saw comes equipped with, which is hardly worth connecting to a shop vacuum. Helpful instructions available via a QR code were a nice touch, much appreciated.
m c.
Easy installation, significantly reduced sawdust in and around the work . worked as advertised the very first time.
Nathan M.
Well designed product! I wanted it mainly to get the dust collection port away from the back of the rails so I could tuck the saw in tighter to a wall and not have it stick out so far. The installation is easy and the video link he sends with the product for how to install it was perfect and a nice touch. Thank you!
Jeremy W.
No gimic here folks, this thing works! I delayed purchasing for way to long. This has been one of the best additions to my shop, get one now!!
Phillip R B.
I bought the Shop Nation Dust Collector for my DeWalt 780 sliding miter saw. I ordered the yellow version to match my saw. It is very easy to install and only took less than 30 minutes to get it set up. I also purchased a vacuum electrical outlet for the saw and the shopvac. The shopvac turns on when I pull the trigger on the saw. I've cut 16 6/4 by 6" boards with it so far and am very pleased with the results. I think it catches somewhere around 90% of the dust from the saw.
Dwayne B.
Works as it should.
Daniel L.
Not particularly happy with the performance of this dust collection addition. I upgraded to a DeWalt DWS780 just so I could add this upgrade and do a better job of controlling dust in my shop however it’s marginally better, if that, from my old system. I installed it exactly as instructed and I’m using a 160 CFM shop vac and still quite a lot of dust. Live and learn!
Paul S.
My order had the wrong hose adapter for the vaccum hookup.
John-Paul P.
Works great! Easy install
Jeffrey F.
It's easy to install by following the video tutoral and it works great in collecting dust as promised!
Jacob R.
Great product! Easy to install and significantly decreased the dust buildup around the miter saw.
Craig B.
Love it. Easy to install and definitely improved dust collection. Worth every penny!
Theodore K.
Definitely improves the dust collection my Dewalt 779 and now v it does not stick out as far in the back.
George S.
Installed per instructions and seems to work as advertised. Much better than the original Dewalt duct pick up.
Janice D.
Second one i purchased because the first one broke.
Björn B.
I love these dust extraction. It’s like the difference between night and day compared to the standard series.
William F.
Was very easy to install and really helps with the dust collection, would strongly suggest this for anyone who has a DeWalt chop saw.
Benjamin A.
The installation video made this super easy to install. This new dust collector made a huge difference, great product.
ARMANDO J.
I have followed Shop Nation from the beginning and I do love your content and you as a presenter. Unfortunately the Dust chute actually made more dust than what I had DIY on my Dewalt saw before. The one I made, the rubber flap was wider and this one the dust is all over because the dust chute is too narrow. I hope in the future the rubber chute can be made a little wider and even longer. It does look good but unfortunately it does not function as advertised. I can send you a video if you wish showing this. Thanks anyways Armando
Ryan M.
Gets maybe 10 percent more dust than the factory dust extraction. Doesn't work if you are cutting wide planks and pull the saw towards you; the rubber flap catches on the fence and rips.
Todd C.
This dust collector fits like a glove and really reduces most of the sawdust. My big 12” Dewalt mitre saw throws the sawdust. Great addition.
Kirk D.
Other than waiting for it to arrive, it works perfectly well
Andrew K.
Fit perfectly and the video instructions on how to assemble were perfect as well!
Charles M.
works so much better than the original system
Seth M.
Worked as advertised. Hard to beat good dust collection on a tool you use consistently.
Bryan S.
This Dust Collector works great.
Richard M.
Despite initial skepticism I installed it and was impressed that it was more effective than I expected. It seems well thought out and excellent quality.
