Factory chute vs. Shop Nation
See the difference
Factory dust chutes leave a gap right where the blade throws the most debris. Ours is engineered around the Ridgid 12" Sliding Miter Saw (R4222) to close it and steer chips into your hose, so they stop ending up on the floor, the fence and in your lungs.

FAQ
Questions, answered
Which saws does it fit?
It's made specifically for the Ridgid 12" Sliding Miter Saw (R4222). Pick your model in the selector above to get the right fit.
Do I need a vacuum or dust collector?
Yes. The chute steers debris into your hose, so you'll need a shop vac or dust collector connected to it to get the full benefit.
How hard is it to install?
It's straightforward. It bolts into the same spot as the factory chute, with no cutting, drilling or modification to your saw. Most installs take a few minutes.
Can I go back to the factory chute?
Yes. Nothing on your saw is modified, so you can put the stock chute back on any time.
How much of a difference does it really make?
A big one. The chute closes the gap where factory chutes let the most debris escape, so far more chips end up in your vac instead of on the floor, the fence and in the air. Read what 13 woodworkers say in the reviews above.
How do I get the build plans?
The plans are digital PDFs, delivered by email immediately after purchase, so you can start planning your next build while the chute ships. If the email doesn't show up within a few minutes, check your spam or promotions folder.
What happens if I return the chute?
The physical chute is covered by our 30-day satisfaction guarantee. A fixed $40 of the bundle price is allocated to the digital build plans, and once they're delivered that $40 is nonrefundable for change-of-mind or dissatisfaction returns, including on discounted or sale purchases.
If you return the chute, your product refund is the bundle price you actually paid after discounts, minus $40, plus applicable refundable tax. Return shipping and original shipping refunds are handled under our Returns & Refunds Policy. Full details are in Section 8 of our Terms of Service.

I dreaded using the miter saw because of the mess it made. A HUGE improvement after installing the dust chute. Miter saw is a joy to use again. Thanks, definately worth the money!
Installation was a breeze thanks to the instructive video link that accompanied the dust chute. I really appreciate that it was totally specific to and custom for my saw. Works precisely as promised and dramatically improves the dust collection feature on my saw. Want a suggestion for future builds? The thumb screws on my model saw were up tight against the saw body and were difficult to tighten by hand. Maybe add a groove in the top to accept a screwdriver? Thanks for considering!
I have been looking for a dust collection system for my miter saw that works for ever, even bought a dust shroud that was a miserable failure! The Shop Nation system is awesome! There is a bit of dust that gets by, but it’s night and day from what it was before. It was very easy to install, no major mods and it works great. Bottom line, I love it! Mario
The kit does exactly as promised. It captures almost all of the dust my Rigid produces, and way more than the dust collection bits that come on the saw. A ton of bang for the buck. I couldn’t recommend it more.
I love this product. The installation was easy and the performance is great. A huge improvement from the default chip chute. I just used it for about the worst condition possible 45 deg. compound cuts on 2x8 pressure treated lumber and it worked great.
I found this very easy to assemble and install. I am very happy with it. Ridgid R4222
Works great!
Basically did what it said it would.
Works good
Easy to put on a works great on keeping dust and debri from flying everywhere
Seems well built,easy to assemble. Once made a few test cuts but noticed nice reduction in dust in are cutting 👍
I ordered the dust collection for my Rigid R4220 and it works great!!! Very little that is missed! The install was simple following the video instructions.
