Install went very smooth, the install video on YouTube was a great help, looks good and functions as advertised.

I’m normally not one to write reviews unless I’m extremely impressed with the product. This dust collection upgrade for my Dewalt miter saw exceeded all of my expectations. This part should come standard on all of Dewalts miter saws as the current dust collection they have is horrible. Installation took no more than 10 minutes and was extremely easy. All my parts arrived on time and as someone who incorporates 3D printing into their business was extremely impressed by the quality of the printed parts. Very nice piece and will recommend in the future and will be buying from this company again!
Andrew M.
Works so much better than the OEM non-collector.
Shawn S.
I’ve been trying to find a solution for dewalts awful dust collection port. I’m glad that somebody finally came up with one that worked for my model. It works exceptionally well, and the instructions were absolutely spot on, which is nearly impossible to find with products anymore.! Nice work!
Gabe S.
Works great, easy to install.
Stephen D.
Outstanding customer service!
Joshua B.
Great dust collection. Very minimal dust now
RANDY S.
Fit perfectly but only catches about the same amount of dust as the original did
Frank B.
easy to install and it works great!
Mary I.
Satisfied with the product much better than original The flap will get caught if you're slight ends are too far in otherwise 100% recommend thanks
John C.
This is an amazing piece of engineering. I installed this with one arm and it was my non dominate are. I had toal shoulder replacement and could not wait to see it on the saw. With one arm and hand it took me about 15 minutes. So it should take anyone between 5 and 10 minutes to install.
Glen M.
This saw dust port was very easy to attach to my Dewalt sliding miter saw. In using my saw, my Ridgid shop vac picked up virtually all the sawdust through the Shop Nation saw dust collection assembly. I highly recommend this product!
Aaron K.
Must have kit for dewalt 780!
cody l.
This thing is awesome. I thought good dust collection on a miter was impossible. This is a game changer, day after I installed mine I ordered one for my friend. He is amazed also. Does a great job gets probably 90% of the dust.
Ken H.
Worked great as the video shows. Easy installation.
David F.
Vastly improved dust collection over the stock one. I
Installation video was very helpful. My Dewalt saw had one extra piece that bridged the factory blade guard. This had to be removed (1 screw and it slides out) or one of the blade guard screws would have been nearly impossible to access. Otherwise, it was straightforward.
Matt W.
Installation was quick and easy. Definitely an improvement over the stock configuration.
Blake S.
Very soild product
Collects 90% of the dust.
Paul G.
I ordered this during the holidays so it took a couple of weeks before I got It (I expected that). It wasn’t a big deal. I got it installed and tried it on some scrap wood. It has helped a bunch, overall it has been worth it. Like they said it’s not perfect so the sawdust that escapes I just unhook it from the saw and suck up the excess. I would recommend it to anyone needing to improve the sawdust removal especially on the DWS780.
James H.
Great product! Please make one for the DeWalt 708 Type 4 Saw!!!
Isaac S.
Huge improvement from factory!
Thomas C.
I installed the Shop National solution and am very pleased with the collection of the sawdust. I would estimate at least 80% reduction in debris around the saw
I would recommend this to anyone with the Dewalt saw
I only wish I had it in place before I built my miter station I could have pushed the saw back by 4”
Great service and product
Arvil S.
I had a problem getting the screw behind the back blade guard off. Finally, I removed the blade and guard and all is well. Working great.
Daniel K.
Works as described
Billy
Easy install, great tutorial video. Weekend DIYer and helps drastically reduce the dust.
Richard D.
This is a great addition to the saw and works really well and allows me to set it up inside with minimal clean up. Well worth it. R
Justin T.
This works better than stock for sure
Mike B.
I would love to rate order #34354, if I had only received it. I ordered it on Dec. 24. My first one came apart on me, but I loved the way it worked. Would love to rate the new one.
Joseph C.
I like how well this works and the installation was straightforward. The only thing that would be an improvement is use a sturdier filament in its production.
Tim W.
Easy to install, huge improvement and well worth the cost.
Doug E.
This is a great replacement over the factory saw dust sprayer.
Gary V.
It's much better than I expected and better then without it. It's a great idea and better than most other options. I will continue to use it until something better comes along. Thanks for coming up with the idea.
Brian A.
Works as it should. Had one on my old dewalt saw so when I upgraded it was a must have!
Dustin T F.
This was super easy to install and it does a remarkably better job of sucking in that saw dust. I'm really glad I made this purchase!
Edward K.
I haven’t installed it yet. I would be happy to send you pictures of the completed installation, but it is too freaking cold right now in my shop, I am not using my saw right now. That’s the only review you are going to get at present. Sorry.
Byran Y.
Works as intended.
Ryck C.
Better than stock, but not as effective as I expected it to be.
Jason B.
Would've been 5 stars but it only came with 3 of the 4 screws needed for installation, great fitment and function though!!
Jason M.
Definitely a significant improvement, though not 100% dust capture.
Heather S.
It’s better than it was.
Bryan M.
Installation was fairly straightforward. Getting the second "back' screw in the dust catcher was a bit tricky. Nice touch to include a spare flap! Was suspicious it would work as it appears to have a very small profile but did in fact do a much better job than the OEM solution by hugging the blade. Kudos on tackling this common issue. One recommendation for the install video might be to list the items that should be left over. For the DeWalt it was clear the tube would be gone but the complex bracket took me a moment to see it was OBE as well. Just a picture showing the tube, bracket, and bolt would have reassured me I installed correctly.
Brian J.
Easy, quick install. Video instructions great. So much better than stock dust collection!
Robert B.
You guys know that chop saws are bad for dust, yours does a pretty good job of getting rid of 99% of it, great purchase
Craig K.
Easy to install. Looking forward to using this. Thank you.
Karl S.
removes large amounts of dust compared to to factory
Thomas N.
The unit is installed and semi-functional. The rubber of the leading edge funnel is sufficiently weak that my 30 year old shop vacuum regularly causes it to fold itself inward and therefore become useless. It is a good idea, but the inherent weakness of the thin rubber makes it less than ideal.
Anthony S.
It works better than the OEM but it still misses a lot
SHAWN C.
Very easy to install. It took about 3 min. Works amazing compared to what Dewalt thought was an adequate dust port. Worth the purchase and would definitely recommend this as a great addition for any miter saw.
Rich A.
Hey everyone,
Well, I was looking for that “thing” that would help me keep a cleaner area. I saw and ordered the Shop Nation dust collector for my Dewalt DWS779. Install was a breeze after watching the installation video provided by Shop Nation.
I, like many others do not know why Dewalt still uses the straight back tube that sits away from the blade that “might” catch a bit of the debris.
That said, thank you SN for having the forethought and ingenuity to create your dust collector. This will be a game changer as it comes to keeping the area cleaner.
I just bought the DWS779 miter a couple days ago, moving away from my trusty 10” non-sliding Dewalt that’s about 17 years old. I will say, this is going to be fun and help those projects go a bit easier. And with the SN dust collector, this will be a cleaner deal moving forward.
This Shop Nation collector mounts very cleanly, the hose lays out of the way and it’s very obvious it’ll collect way more debris from the saw as it sits close to the blade, yet out of the way. Kudos for the intuition on the piece, spot on. Tweaks may happen as needed for someone’s specific need, but this is perfect for the little guy such as myself. Thank You Shop Nation.
Respectfully,
Rich
Randy B.
This works so well that after I shattered the first one, I bought a replacement. Advice, If you are cutting small pieces and one grabs in the blade, it will destroy the entire dust chute.
Michael D.
Package arrived two weeks ago with missing parts. Reached out to seller and received a reply a few days later indicating the parts would be sent. This looks like it would work great, and I’d love to be able to try it out, if only I had a complete order. Disappointed to say the least.
Andrew B.
Absolutely great product, easy to install and works great! I finally can use my miter saw in my garage, no more lugging it outside. Thank you!!
Kay J.
As expected, your DEWALT DWS779/780 SLIDING MITER SAW DUST COLLECTION works great! Adding a zero clearance plate to the miter saw also and the dust has been greatly minimized. VERY PLEASED!!!
Jim E.
Awesome product. Collects so much more dust than teh standard from Dewalt.
Albert C.
First time using the dust collector, cut through the flap. Tried positioning the flap away from blade to no avail.
Dust collection didn’t seem any different than the OEM unit.
David S.
Works great!!! Thanks.
Jeffrey Z.
Boot should be wider. Not all wood products produce the same type of dust. MDF dust is not the same as Black Walnut etc. it would have been helpful if a wider dispersion was given its due
Thanks
jz
John M.
works great, although video was a little confusing because it did not show taking off two torx screws; I'm assuming because you didn't want to show taking the guard off.
Tom H.
Big improvement to saw dust collection. Been cutting dozens of studs and have far less dust than from cutting a few 1x8 and 2x2 for a small bench I made.
Barry S.
This works as advertised. However, on my Dewalt 780, if you have the adjustable parts of the fences in place, when you push the saw back to the stop, the fences push the flexible portion of the collector into the blade, which then cuts gouges in the flexible piece. Also, the guide wheel on the blade guard does a similar effect - it grabs the flexible portion, pulling it into the blade
Anthony M.
Works better than expected. It really removes a significant amount of dust.
Mark R.
Expected better results. It’s an improvement over the factory dust collection, but not as much as I hoped.
Janis D.
Worked great and improved the dust collection of my Dewalt miter saw.
Thomas
A big plus to my saw Thankyou.
THOMAS S.
Excellent upgrade to the OEM dust collection
Jeff C.
Much improved performance.
Joseph S.
I am very pleased with the quality and fit and finish of the Shop Nation dust collection system. The price point is reasonable as well. This looks like it is OEM. How is it that Dewalt couldn't come up with this instead of the ridiculous system that came from the factory?
Leslie B.
Parts arrived quickly and the video was spot on. Overall, a great product.
Benjamin M.
The rubber pad has a small slice in it after cutting a 3-1/2” thick board. I’m planning on putting some duct tape on it. The installation was easy and fairly straightforward.
I also have an older Dewalt that I recently fabricated a dust box for that I lined with paint booth filter that works as good as this system does. Can be seen on Facebook Woodworking Group.
Gregg R.
Fit perfect and works good. Haven’t used a lot yet but it should be great
Anthony
Takes a significant amount of dust away. Highly recommended!!!
Melvin H.
Works as advertised a great invention
John M.
The installation video was clear and concise. The original dust collection doesn’t even come close to how well this adapter works. Very happy!
Remi R.
I just installed the new part on my saw and wow that is making a great difference! I can see all the dust getting caught and practically nothing is spreading around my saw.
The only little improvement that would be great is the attachment between the adapter and the hose could be redesigned to be a little stronger. It feels a little weak! I really appreciate buying from a small business like this!
Brian B.
Huge upgrade to the saw. Connecting a vacuum actually does something now. Installation video was super clear and I was up and running in less than 15 mins. While I expected most of the dust to now be captured, I was most impressed with how there is no longer any of the super fine dust floating around in the air in the shop anymore.
Jimmy D.
Easy to install works perfectly.
Dan F.
I needed to replace my previous one when I was cutting a wide angle and I had a piece of maple tear into it. I'm not sure why it happened but it was very destructive. I don't think the device was at fault. It was more a badly set up cut.
Mark C.
It does fit and extracts well, but as far as I can see the dust cover now has to be removed everytime the blade needs changing. Its not the easiest thing to remove, and will be very easy to round over the screws holding it on as they are hard to reach.
None of that would stop me from buying it. I'm just not sure how long it will last.
Much better extraction though
Aaron D.
The order process was easy. Installation was a bit tricky, but the dust collection system works much better than the previous solution. No more fine dust mess!
Fabian E.
The QR code video was very concise a one time viewing was all that was needed for the install. My work area is very tight with the additional problem being its proximity to our furnace which means dust in the ducts. The new dust chute captures almost 100% of the dust from cuts. I’m completely satisfied with your product.
David Blake S.
Great design. I can breathe easier.
Salvatore S.
I have not had the chance to open it yet. I left for work before it came to my house. I purchased it based off of what I saw on YouTube.
Tom Y.
This shop Nation dust collector work much better than the factory unit in my DeWalt compound miter saw. Nothing is 100% but it's getting there. I do have it on a portable stand.
Warren S.
Great enhancement to the Dewalt miter saw. Collects much more dust than the stock part, helping to keep the shop clean.
Verla B.
It was a Christmas gift for my son! He seems pleased!
Gavin N.
Easy install, significant improvement over the stock system.
Megan P.
It was a Christmas gift for my dad and he absolutely loves it!
Ron E.
Works great. Easy to install
Gaylene R.
Definitely better but a ways to go.
Shane R.
Hi.
Installation was a breeze. The upgrade functions very well.
While not perfect, as there is still some dust getting by, this product is a definite 9 out of 10..
Paul R.
I did not know the sliding fences on my DeWalt 780 saw had to be opened up wider to accommodate the new dust collector. First cut the rubber flap hit the blade and was cut. I think it will still work but would have preferred the installation video had discussed this issue before the flap was ruined
Joe S.
Excellent service quick and easy so hopefull thank you
Marion B.
Looks like the quality is good. Haven’t used it a lot yet.
John H.
Love it, easy to install and immediately impressed. Be sure to slide your fence away from the blade. You do lose the zero clearance spacing as it will slice your rubber shield
