Love the product. My Cruzer is leaps and bounds better with this new dust boot and the off set coupler made the hook up a breeze.

The dust collection adapter on my Cruzer works and works pretty well. That's the good news. The not so good news is that it needs to be added with the blade installed, AND when you want to change blades it has to be removed. Both instances are difficult as the screws are virtually hidden and finding them with the Torx screwdriver is a real chore. The limitation on the amount you can bevel is also not appreciated. Maybe the adapter could be a two-piece unit: the back half remains in place but the front half could be easily removed for blade changes and bevels. Is this possible? I hope so and would happily buy the new version.

Quick delivery. Easy to install. Works like a dream.

The existing hood was not of much use.
Getting the old one out and the new one is is tight
but that is the saw
Once installed, I ran some test cuts. True they are entirely subjective, but I felt I was seeing a substantial change
since then I use the saw with suction attached through the port daily and it word fine.
Only thing which is the saw, if the saw head is rotated on its vertical axis, it does limit the depth of cut towards the fence

The dust collection chute is an improvement, but as i stated in one email, once you can make some adjustment to it so i don’t have to take it off to change blades, that would help. It seems that the tap into the housing is not the greatest, so the screws that attach it may strip out if it has to be taken off and on several times. I know that’s not your doing, but it is still a problem if it happens.
Also the adaptor you sent in the complete kit for the 2” hose connection doesn’t work with my hose. There is minimal clearance with you adaptor. you developed it with an offset, but it’s not enough. Needs to offset maybe 1/4” more for the universal hose i use
David D.
Install was perfect. Collects the dust way better than the factor collector!
PAUL D.
Dust port is made very well. Installing it was good. The big problem was installing the blade back on. Blade was hard to line up the slot. Once on and cutting I'm very happy with how it sucks 90 percent more dust
Good job.
MARK H.
Works great. Thank you so much.
Darik W.
The upgrade dust catcher part works great. The 2 1/2" hose adapter doesn't clear the lift handle on the Delta Cruzer 10".
Carl W.
Nice add on to my saw
Daniel P.
Massively improved dust collection on my Ridgid sliding miter. It made a huge mess with every cut. I would get dust everywhere, now it's much more contained and works really well. Worth every penny.
Jacob P.
10” saw. Love the dust collection. However cannot lay the saw down to miter at all and removing the unit is a major hassle. If you never tilt your saw, it is a fantastic unit.
Sean S.
The dust port severely limits the cut capacity of this saw. I had to reinstall the factory dust port.
I would not recommend.
John E.
It works pretty good. My guess is it collects about 80% of the dust. As the saw came, even when hooked up to a shop vac collection was next to nothing. Unfortunately I have found two draw backs. If you use the slide function you can't cut any stock over a inch and a half thick and the device must be removed before you can change the saw blade. All in all not bad but not great.
Joseph K.
Overall, I'm very happy with this. It is a little tricky to install. This is not a flaw of the part itself but is primarily a side effect of how the saw is designed and how the part needs to be swapped. Note also that it is important to be careful to not allow your saw blade to catch and throw an offcut into the piece or it may shatter. The fence design for the Cruzer is such that you may need to create a small supplemental "zero clearance" fence as you cannot really get this with the built in fence.

Everything went great
MICHAEL C.
Great fit and great quality with extra rubber replacement flaps!! Easy installation . Added an 1" 1/2 flex coupling onto my vacuum port with 1" 1/4 reducer adapter for my m18 milwaukee wet dry vac !!
Jean M.
The dust chute is a game changer for controlling miter saw dust. Instead of saw dust flying all over, it goes into the vacuum.
Thank you for a fantastic product.
Sandford W.
While it was not easy to install, once done the dust was reduced significantly.
I called Delta to voice my displeasure with the 10" miter saw dust creation. The Delta rep mentioned Delta is aware and working on an upgrade that can attached. They even referred Shop Nation's solution!
Wayne L.
Saw this on line and as with most things I was a little skeptical until I read the reviews. I like when companies put all their reviews the good and the bad for customers to see and make up their own mind. I liked what I read and thout it was worth a try so I got one and it works very well. Not perfect but 98% better than the method I was using. Added a new vacuum to the miter saw to enhance the suction power. I am extremely happy with the product and would recommend it. I would however suggest that they add some directions on installation. My neighbor got one and was not as familiar as I was on how to install it. I assisted him and he did not realize how easy it was.
Craig S.
The fit is great. Bolts up nicely. Dust collection a bit disappointing. Might be better with a larger suction hose.
Richard
This is working out great very happy thank you
Dave
Good quality but a real pain to install. The added 2 1/2 in adapter is useless and no better than the original piece provided by Ridgid. Better to just get the chute than the full package.
Charlie B.
Rigid 10” Sliding Miter Saw Dust Collector
Great improvement in dust collection.
However, I found it difficult to install and don’t relish the thought of a blade change which will require its removal. I highly recommend changing the original “T” type screws and replacing them with an Allen head equivalent. This type of screw head is much more secure and when used with a long Allen wrench it made installation much easier.
MARK
It works great thank you
Tim
Improves dust collection - at a cost.
While this upgrade the dust collection ability massively, it also decreases cut capacity massively, and it requires the fences to be very far away from the cut
Dennie Hahn
Incredible!
I bought this dust collection upgrade for my new Ridgid 10" sliding miter saw. I made a few cuts without it, and it was like a scene from a horror movie. I put this bad boy on, and it was like a night and day difference! Thank you for all of your hard work with coming up with these as the big companies could apparently care less about dust collection.
Jason
Huge improvement
This new dust collection cute works great. I love my Delta Cruzer, but the OEM dust collection was terrible. Travis solved that problem. Thank you!
Tom Henaghan
Infuriating Install
Cool product idea, definitely a need for it because the dust collection on this saw is atrocious. Well it's a good idea the design is flawed and the install is the most frustrating thing I think I have ever done. You can't put the blade on with this thing attached. It has to come off every time you want to change a blade. And trying to screw the thing on while your knuckles are grating against a saw blade is a really fun time! Great thinking!
I spent an hour trying to get this thing on and never actually got both screws in. I'm not going through it every time I need to change out or sharpen a blade. I'd rather deal with the dust than with this piece of garbage. What a waste of time and money!
Phillip South
Fits PERFECTLY, build quality is EXCELLENT. But.... ?!?
Does it work? YES! Just like in the videos.
Does it fit correctly? YES! Better than the original non-functional part.
Is it priced right? Probably. I own a 3-D printer, but I bit the bullet and I think it's worth it. No stinky ABS or tweaking settings.
Good customer service? YES! 15 days from order placement to arrival at my door, carefully packaged, all parts neatly organized. Emails every so often announcing milestones.
But...it stinks. I mean it literally STINKS! It smells like someone chain-smoked cheap cigarettes while it was printing, while it was being packaged, while it was being handled, during it's whole existence up to arriving at my front door. It REEKS of smoke like a building burned down around it. I washed the parts, but it all STILL smells SO BAD. My son came into the office where I opened it and said "Mom is gonna kill you for letting someone smoke in here." Even the box was so offensive I had to take it outside to the trash cart.
My workshop takes over the whole garage, but has a corner left over for the laundry area, and she's threatening to not go out there if I don't uninstall it and get it out of her perception. I'm going to try to a desperation alcohol-wash before I throw it out, but she-who-must-be-obeyed will not be dissuaded and I'm not too hopeful at this point. So, SO SAD!
In summary, it is (would be) a perfect product if I could just be allowed to keep it. DANG! What a TRAGEDY! And what a waste of fifty bucks.

Dust collection performance greatly improved with this. Only problem it's fragile mine cracked twice which I repaired ( job weld/ super glue) third time kickback blew it up and I had pieces 30' or more from my saw station. However I ordered a second one and it's back to sucking dust.

Fast service. Great build quality. Takes my dust collection to a whole new, and a million times better, level.
For those having any issues with the install, I found that the new chute will hold the screws if I start them in the wholes and let the ends show out the other side a bit. This helped with being in that tight space and for alignment.
I made a before and after video here https://youtu.be/LQB-SLylyEI

I haven't been able to install it yet, need to build the miter saw station first. But, the 3d printed parts quality was great! Parts were carefully packaged, no missing pieces, edges deburred, and supports were cleanly removed. I don't foresee any issues with installation, and let's be honest, there's no way to make the dust collection any worse on these saws. Thanks!

This an amazing upgrade for this saw. The dust collection for this saw is less than desirable and this solves that problem. this is the 2nd Ive ordered. Had a small part blow up on me and in turn blew up my dust chute. This is so worth it that I ordered the second. The package came quick both times and he is a top notch seller. Would recommend this and/or him to anyone any day of the week.

Quality of item is excellent, few things not mentioned. You have to slide your moveable fences for chute to clear, getting the blade installed is a huge pain in the ass after installing this. Dust collection is much better than stock chute. The pro is better than the cons.

The quality of the print is excellent and the product does seem to work. I haven't had a whole lot of time to use it. But it is better than the stock dust collection chute. I need to get a dedicated dust collector to attach to it. I had a little trouble getting the screws toghtened. They are difficult to see to get the screwdriver into the screws. But that is more of an issue with the design of the saw and not Travis' dust collection chute.
