It performs as advertised. Very pleased as it does collect most of the debris. Glad I purchased.

10X better than stock!!!

The dust collector is doing an amazing job on my Hercules 12 inch compound miter saw. What a difference!
Ray G.
the flap is to low the saw cut it and the dust doesn’t go anywhere near the exit.
Dale B.
It works the way they said, no complaints.
Wesley S.
Received it on time. Very easy instructions video to follow installation. Definitely a big improvement on collecting dust.
Glad I purchased this product.

Love it. Works great.!

I was going to purchase an DW 780 but saw some videos on YouTube and the Harbor Freight Hercules was compared and I saved $350 & I like it a lot. My saw was Easy to modify with the Shop Nation dust collection system. I added a Festool dust collector to the system. Everything fit perfectly and I finally have dust control. Thank you for a great product. I love it.
William D.
Works as advertised. So far very satisfied.
Craig W.
Easy installation and video helped out a lot. Haven’t had the chance to use it yet.
Dale T.
Excellent product, easy to install and works much better than the factory collection. Super impressive.
Gary B.
Installation was very simple with the YouTube video provided for my particular saw. Very informative with the types of t20s and t15s needed and where. Easy to attach to preexisting dust collection with optional accessories I ordered with the kit. Definitely will be adding more shop nation products to future equipment.
Eddie M.
so far so good, vastly improved the dust collection
Kenneth W.
I only recently received the dust collection system for my Hercules Miter Saw and finally installed yesterday. Very easy and simple installation by following the detailed step by step online video. The system seems to be decent quality, even with it being plastic. I have been unable to use the original collection because when connected, the flap was so thin and flimsy the vacuum would suck it into the port and block the line. Hopefully this will be much better as the flap is considerably thicker material. Since I do my sawing outdoor, I’ve yet to use the system, but will be doing so in the coming days as weather allows as I have a few projects already lined up. Will update this after seeing the effectiveness of the new system.
Rhonda L.
It was easy to install and works great
Terry K.
Arrived quickly and in good shape, but I haven't installed it yet.
Dayton B.
Its a good piece of equipment. It does make a big difference connected tro a dust collector system.
One quibble , i would like a longer hose that goes over the saw motor so it could be secured easier.
Robert E.
I like not having all the dust to sweep up!
It works well. I’d say about 80% of the dust gets sucked up now. That number would be higher but not because of any deficiencies in the Shop Nation product but the design of the Hercules saw itself.
My only knock is that on one point of the product there seems to be a small gap/crack where the 3D printer did not close up completely. That being said, it works and works well! Kudos to you guys. You made my life easier!
tanner h.
Works like a charm, paired with my dust collector behind it! Still in the works on the new set up currently!
Jon W.
Better than the original
Richard C.
Slightly better dust collection from the original setup. Not sure how robust the 3d printed material is if it receives a thrown chunk of wood. It is a decent product, however, if I had it to do over I would have passed on the purchase.
David J.
Easy to install a workstation as advertised.
Dennis R.
Easy to install.Still have a little dust but a great improvement from factory .
Adam G.
I did not receive the screws of flexible hose
Christopher C.
Best dust collection system you can get for your miter saw
John C.
Have or used it yet
Richard D.
Easy to install and seems like it will collect a lot more dust than the original.
luis f.
It was very easy to install .Looks great on my miter saw . And very efficient . Picks up 70% more sawdust then before
robert h.
Nice video on how to install it on the miter saw
Merle N.
Quite a bit better than expected. Glad I purchased it.
Daniel S.
It went together well but doesn’t collect a whole lot more dust than the OEM parts.
Ron C.
While it works better than the one that came with it, there is still quite a bit of saw dust that does not get captured front sides. There needs to be a secondary curtain to trap these. When I make one we can talk
Adam O.
Ordered and went on sale few days later and was told have to return and reorder to get sale price
Huge waste of time
Anthony H.
Collects some of the sawdust but still a lot to clean up. Not worth $50 when I paid $285 for the saw. Pretty disappointed.
Kenneth H.
Works better than expected. Very pleased.
Stephen B.
Installation video made it easy to understand and install. It works much better than the original dust collection on the Hercules miter saw.
James R.
Installation was fast and easy. I also added an automatic power switch to fire up my vacuum when I fire up the saw. It does not get all the dust but it is much improved over stock.
John K.
Not sure how, but the black rubber piece got cut by the blade. A little disappointed as I just got it. You were nice enough to include and extra one, but still a little disappointing.
I’d be 5 stars if not for that.
Jonathon H.
I ordered parts for a Chicago Electric. You sent Hercule Poirot. I wanted stops for my mitre saw, I don't know what you sent. I have no computer and the library takes cards away from people who try to download videophyles. So your instructions have been used to clean poo off shoes. Actually made me feel better, putting the paper to use.
Since I am aware you are in business to accomodate the stupidest trump voter out there, You won't care if I trash you to every woodworker I know, since we ALL voted for democracy and capitalism. No choice means no elections and no capitalism, merely cronyism with the boss'es buds, Monkey see, Musky dodo. Get the point.
Michael D.
Great product, thank you.
Jack C.
Haven't used it much yet so I can't say good or bad, give me a month I'll know more than
john m.
Love this product !! Works like a charm !!
Darrell J.
Great product!!
Josh M.
The new dust system was easy to install and really made a difference. Very happy
Fred L.
What a difference this makes. The stock unit had sawdust all over, typical miter saw problem , even with the vacuum cleaner hooked up. Installed this unit and eliminated about 90 to 95 percent of the dust problems. Highly recommend for the Hercules 12 in miter saw.
Terrence D.
Very easy to install and HUGELY more effective than the built-in dust collection. I'm impressed.
Jeff G.
Great product. Easy install. Works fantastic!
Richard H.
Installed with no issues. I have only made a few test cuts using dust collector on new saw.
Charles K.
It's better but not great. I had a tent behind my mitre before. I will put the tent back up and hopefully the combo will help more. I understand the space restrictions but the very small hose will not allow enough suction. Yes my vac is very strong. The best feature is the quick disconnect for the vac hose. Now I can suck up all the mess
Chris P.
Great product. Solid materials, easy to install, and fits great.
Joseph D.
Received everything that was promised. Instructions were perfect, no issues or frustrations disassembling or installing. Works as advertised. Just keep in mind, this will not capture every piece of saw dust, but it makes a huge difference. Well worth the investment, highly recommend.
Richard C.
Easy to install with video. Works pretty well.
Albert P.
Assembly was easy, and connected vacuum with no problems.
Blaise M.
Works great. I’m glad someone else finally got sick of miter saw’s terrible dust collection and did something anyone can purchase instead of all the “DIY build your own” stuff out there. Looks much better than a plywood box behind the blade too.
Fred
Wow..what a difference it has made. No more saw dust everywhere. A whole lot better than the stock unit.
Don
Easy to install. I have it hooked up to my cyclone dust collection system and it’s way better than the stock dust shoot
BJ B.
Better than what I had but going make modifications to my saw mounting for better performance
Mark M.
I havent had a chance to assemble it yet, but I love how the product is made and look forward to putting it on soon.
Joe
It works, far better than the stock collector..
Easy install and decent quality... so far so good!!
Sean G.
I was loving it as a dust collector, the design really helped eliminate the fine particles from the saw.
Today I had a kickback incident and I loved the potentially unintended safety feature. The dust collector broke free and all that space threw the wood cleanly back and away from me.
Will definitely be ordering a replacement for my saw!
Donald T.
It took the Hercules miter saw from about 1% dust collection to something in excess of 95%. Quite a game changer. Also, could not be easier to install. Clear instructions and everything you need in the package except a couple Torx drivers and one phillips driver. Very well designed.
John B.
Heck of a lot better than the orginial dust scoop that came with the saw.
Don K.
Was easy to install. Works way better than the original
Troy W.
The Hercules dust hood works great, not perfect but there is no perfect solution for miter saws. That said the instructions to install were non existent, the QR code card only leads to the original design video for another brand so I had to figure it out on my own. Not a biggie but not ideal.
David A.
Works as advertised.
Easy install.
Scott H.
I was very pleased with the unit. The install video was excellent. The results are so much better than what came with the unit. It was a good investment.
Dale M.
It collects better than the one that came with it but not as good as I was hoping. It keeps more sawdust at the saw but it only collects about 50% of
Nicholas M.
It does help with dust collection, but I still get a fair amount not going into the collector. Overall, I'm happy with it, but it could be better. Probably just needs are bigger rubber piece to be a back stop / funnel for the dust.
Walter S.
Mounting easy enough. Could be better at getting the dust. Going to try a bigger dust collector. That should help
Mark S.
Although the 3D printing is not the best, it seems to be rigid enough to do the job. I’m monitoring the amount of dust collection as compared to the standard vac attachment that came with my Hercules sliding compound miter saw. So far, a big difference.
Mark
Barb A.
It Looks Like It Is What I Have Been Looking For Works Great
Greg F.
Installed easily and so far works great. Time will tell on the durability. Doesn’t collect everything but does seem to collect the smallest particles which are the most dangerous. Regardless it is a great improvement over the manufacturing setup
Nolan W.
Easy to install and works much better than the factory installed dust collection.
Ken S.
After watching your video I got the dust collector installed and it works exactly how I wanted and needed. Thank you for that video and thank you for giving me something to keep my shop cleaner! I really appreciate you product because it does exactly what you said it would do!
Don P.
Went together very nicely and very accurate and very fast. Works fantastic!!
DP
Richard W.
It was easy to install and i had all the parts that I needed. It worked well but not perfect. Definitely waay better than stock.
Bradley D.
This works well, but the saw will not advance all the way through so the board is not cut all the way. I have to finish the cut with a hand saw. The frame apparently touches the provided tube, resulting is a shorter stroke.
James C.
Easy to install. Much improved over the factory collector. Great investment!
Fred E.
Works as advertised. Installation was easy with the video link provided. Not perfect at catching all dust (but then again it wasn't advertised as perfect) but much better than the harbor freight stock dust port. Would definitely recommend to others with a Hercules Miter saw.
Bob M.
Intallation video was perfect. This thing collects at least 90% of the sawdust. No clue why the factory has such crappy dust collection. Highly recommend getting one of these for your saw. Thank you Shop Nation
Steven P.
The installation video is well done and made it easy to install. However, I am not confident that it has improved the dust collection much at all for me. Suction is certainly there but there seems to be a lot of sawdust deflecting off of the rubber piece. Installed on the Hercules 12" sliding miter saw.
Timothy D.
Easy install works so much better than the one the saw came with.
dareck h.
Works awesome install was breeze
Garry J.
I am very please to solve a problem so easily. Prior to installing this attachment to our miter saw, things got messy fast. The OEM dust bag is laughable in performance.
Installation was a breeze thanks to the video.
Our work shop has a gravel floor and clean up after a big project has always been a monumental chore.
This new addition has been a game changer! I highly recommend this attachment.
Thanks,
Garry
Prentice T.
Works much better than the factory chute. Thanks so much! I highly recommend to all saw owners.
Brian W.
This was easy to install and the video link helped. Only thing I would change or do different would make the channel that the rubber flap goes in deeper so it don’t try to pull out right away when you slid your saw back and forth
Aaron
I love this song product . The dust collection is like night n day compared to the original dust collection that came with the saw .
Ray H.
The dust collection replacement was easy to install and I definitely see an improvement in how much sawdust is vacuumed away. No problem with 45 degree miter cuts except fence has to be adjusted more than previous. Very happy with it so far.
Albert W.
Works as advertised. Far less sawdust at this end of shop. Highly recommend it. I may work with either a newer shopvac or experiment with my dust collector, but hey, I’m a mechanical engineer. Very happy!!!
Kenneth C.
So far I’ve been terribly disappointed. I have my collector installed on the Hercules 12” miter saw. There seems to way too much sawdust ricocheting off of the rubber shield. It seems since the actual avenue for the sawdust to travel has been focused on one side, that anything that doesn’t have a direct path to that opening, bounce off creating a mess. There seems to be plenty of suction air velocity at the opening but the funneling effort to get the rest of the dust to that point fails.
It’s a nice looking piece but in my opinion not effective at all.
Michael P.
Super easy to install, fits well and works great.
Money well spent!
Travis R.
It fit great. Hooked it up to a shop vac and auto switch. It cuts down the dust a bunch.
Steve B.
Easy to install and it works much better than the OEM system.
David C.
Works exactly as advertised. Not a 100% solution, to be sure, but I can't imagine an easier 90% solution. What others haven't noted is that the 90% includes virtually all of the fine dust, which is what makes the widest mess and is most inhalable. The remaining 10% is overwhelmingly the coarse stuff, which doesn't hang in the air or fly very far, making cleanup even easier than the 10% figure would suggest.
Mark M.
I am so impressed with the Shop Nation dust collection port for my Hercules Miter saw! The product is well designed and easy to install. The video instructions were very clear and specific to my particular saw. The OEM dust port was just a lame chute into a bag. With the addition of the Shop Nation dust port, I now have active dust collection right behind the blade. Everything that I needed to connect to my shop vac was included with my order. A big improvement to my miter saw. Thanks Travis!
