That duck tape gasket method is really clever. Great project!
Great job Justin, its a work of art. It will be my next project. Thank you for the Dewalt hose adapter download, I am printing it as we speak, you are now 4 years older so I hope all has gone well for you.
This is by far the most well thought out, most comprehensive miter saw dust hood build I've ever seen on RUclips. I've watched literally hundreds of other videos which tried to address the problem of miter saw dust and I've got to say, I deeply admire your brain. Well done!
Just came across this Video.
Wonderful wood working & planning . Well done to you.
Brilliant tip at 8:50 about drilling a relief hole when using the hole saw. This old dog learned a new trick.
Excellent JOB! I can see a lot of thought went into that.nice tips thrown in along the way too. Thanks.
Excellent my friend! The tip about the hole saw is very much appreciated. 56 and still learning. Great tip
Love the gaskets and the sweet fit of the left side panel
Awesome: several great ideas, good execution, good explanation. Thank you!
That's some extra-level stuff right there
Good build
Thanx for posting
Absolutely genius builds. I just stumbled across your videos and have subscribed. You have some of the most innovative ideas I've seen. Great work and videos.
Very creative. Wonderful craftsmanship. Thank you.
This was like an early Christmas gift! Love seeing your projects, Justin! I always learn something from them! Thank you & Merry Christmas!
First time on your channel. I’m very impressed with your build. Simple construction, excellent performance. You gave ne some great tips for closing up the front end of the hood. I am going to retrofit on a hood I built for my saw a few years ago. Thanks.
Justin, you’re an incredible engineer! Thanks for sharing this.
Good to see ya back, it's been awhile...
Very impressed. Thank you for a great build idea. I start mine soon. Cheers from Down under.
Very nice design and great build presentation!! Thank you - David
You’re right, this is the best design I’ve seen. Awesome job & im stealing your design.
Nice to see you back in the shop. Nice and simple design.
very innovative and creative solution to a super messy problem. Thanks for putting this build out here! Good work!
That is the best that I have seen. Thanks for sharing your talents.
Very well thought out and executed. Nice presentation too.
Very clever design love the gasket idea
Nicely done!
Very impressive. Really enjoy your ingenuity
Very Very smart and practical, I like your thought process. All that is needed is the hood and a strong vac. To be 100% is asking a bit to much as the small amount left over to clean is inevitable, but great job.
This was fantastically over engineered and I freaking loved it!
Haha thanks Nick!
Justin Depew , can you tell me what vac you are using? This is one killer dust collection for btw, some fine engineering
There's a lot of genius in this build.
awesome dust hood!
Awesome. You are a true professional.
Holey Batdust, Batman! Kool design, potential future project.
Good video really enjoy watching Your videos it’s obvious You put A lot of time and thought into your videos
Genius, very cool!!!!
Very Nice design
Wow brilliant
I need one., nice job!
well done mate !
nice ideas & well done!
Welcome back man
I Follow you from a while and I love your work like this !
Liked milion time
I'm collecting ideas from you. Keep it up!
Ingenious
happy now that you have big room for work? it is real beautiful.dust and water very hard to control but this looks nice.
Duct tape - the handyman's secret weapon.
I really like the relief hole for the hole saw dust. Seems to work very well.
One long slot for the downdraft section works better than lots of small holes. As the video shows, most of the sawdust lands between the holes and is hard to sweep into the small holes. A long slot hear the back of the downdraft section makes it very easy to sweep the sawdust into the slot every few days.
My dust drawer has two 2" holes in the back with an adjacent gap in the divider to the downdraft section. That draws a vacuum in the drawer which pulls more sawdust into the drawer.
Good idea with the holes in the drawer.
Really nice build! So impressed by you guys who take the time and effort to paint and make it look so good. The cut-out for the fence is just next level. I'm looking to do something similar and have a question on the holes/long slot for the downdraft. I was thinking about just leaving it open. What's the benefit of having a smaller holes? Does it increase the airflow in some way?
Dude thats bad ass!!
The hinged panel deserves Nobel prize.
Don't look now, but there's a red Thing in your shop that's eaten your miter saw! It's in its belly!
:)
Great build, Justin! Love those Red Green gaskets and other neat features.
Haha! Thanks John!
instablaster
Loved it, compact and simple in looks but totally thought out. Great job!
Good video
I greatly appreciate your high speed playback of the repetitious elements of your build. Thank you. Any idea of the airflow, speed and volume that actually reaches your surround?
Awesome build! Impeccable engineering as always! Dang it! I wish your plans would work with your saw's sliding compound big brother. I think I'll buy them anyway. Great to see you back!
Thanks Dave!
@@greggdrennan Yep, me too!
Excited to build then at the last moment plans will not work with sliding miter saw 😢. You seem very intelligent you should hook us dummies up with one for a sliding. 🙏
It actually does work for sliding miter saws. I was wrong to say that. There are people who have bought the plans and made it for sliding saws. You just have to build a much bigger box.
Great video. Subscribed immediately
Great job. Just built my first miter saw station in the shop, on rolling table with extensions and rails, but had to come up with some type of hood dust system. We are general contractors, so our primary shop saw is a 12” sliding compound miter. Definitely complicated the process for creating a reasonably descent dust system, but I think Ive got one that is sufficient and is certainly much better than before. It also keeps also of the dust and larger pieces from getting thrown behind the work table.
Sure seems that these companies could come up with a better dust management design. That tiny little opening that comes on the stock saws to connect a hose is a joke.
Genius
Hi Justin just found you, great videos. This has to be the best one so far ,Im not sure if you have noticed that your white balance changes during you video's you might need to switch to manual white balance but you ideas are great !
Great job Justin. It looks like you moved out of your apartment. I like this upgrade over your other one however both are great designs.
Hey Justin! After watching your video I decided to add a down draft table to my miter station. It is very similar to yours except I have a sliding miter saw. I also bought a wall mounted DC rated at 650 CFM.. I'm not getting nearly as much suction as you! Any trouble shooting tips?
What a great project. Not only the final result, but chock-a-block full of tidbits that apply to many other projects. Miter saw dust collection is a universal issue. I had noticed that your saw is not a slider but didn't think about this not being viable for a slider, until you pointed it out at the end. Then, wait - mine is articulating (Bosch) - not a slider. But I guess your design would not accommodate this either because the motor has to go back and forth? Same for the forward-facing sliders?
Yeah the sliders/articulating saws are harder to accommodate. The design of the hinged panels and inside wings would have to change which is something that is not covered in the plans.
Very thought trough... :D
Hey Brother it's awesome good idea to wow it's cool,Happy Holiday's to you and your Family and Friends later :)
Duck tape and zip ties. How in the world do we exist without them.
It's been awhile Justin and I'm subscribed from eons ago. Love your work thanks for putting this up! Oh and must I do a shout out for binder clips too? Okay.
Where did you get the little Cyclone vacuum that you're using on the table
Great ideas! So if I understand correctly, each time you do a non- 90 degree cut, you need to disassemble it? Is that accurate?
That's correct 👍😁👍
That's a great project, but what do you do when you need to swing your saw for a miter? Remove the front pieces?
Yes, I demonstrated that at the end of the video.
How did you print the elbow, lots of supports or some other trick? I am building my dust collection system and printing adapters.
No tricks, just used lots of support.
Genius idea to make the side panels slide out for quick access and angled cuts!
Great build. My mitre saw slides :(
What’s the model number of your miter saw? Looks like a 10”? Wondering if we have the same saw and I’d be able to use your same dimensions.
A re-watch brings up several questions. Does the drawer catch anything besides the sawdust being ejected through the saw throat? What do you figure the downdraft hole area needs to be relative to the area of the dust tubing? Maybe 1.5 x greater? Smaller? I'd guess the area under the saw table would benefit from vacuum. At this point, what do you think? Also, if a builder used a larger shop vac and a 2-1/4" diameter hose just 1' long and centered under the downdraft portion, would you expect that to be satisfactory? Or would an eventual upgrade to 4" tube connected to a central dust collection system still be necessary?
Hi Mark - The drawer only catches dust through the throat plate. The reason the area under the saw & throat plate was not included in the down draft was to localize the suction at the rear where most of the dust is. The down draft hole area should be equal to the dust tubing area. I think a large shop vac with a 2-1/4" hose would be satisfactory as I used that for quite a while. However that being said, it's a huge upgrade to get a 4" hose connected. The extra airflow helps keep the fine and medium dust from coming out the front of the saw since there is a strong airflow into the hood.
Great demonstration of a smart solution to the mitre saw. On another note: why do you have this smaller sled with no rear fence?
The small sled is nice because it's lightweight and quick/easy to use. 90% of the pieces that are crosscut on my sleds are less than 6 inches wide, so no need to pull out the big sled. There is no front fence needed to hold the sled together since it is small enough not to deflect under its own weight.
Justin Depew Thanks for the reply. Always good to get an answer to something different.
A few days ago I built a dust hood for my sliding mitre saw and... man... at some point the swearing was phenomenal. Dust hoods with an efficient dust collection for sliding mitre saws are not easy to build. It improved the dust flying around in my garage but still not happy with it. I still keep looking at it trying to figure out how to improve it. Very soon I’m starting another prototype dust hood number 2 and see how it goes.
What don't you like about your design?
@@JustinDepew because of the design of my mitre saw, I need to leave a massive opening for the mitre saw to slide in and out.
You need an "on air" sign like ILTMS, so the wifey knows what's happening in the garage! @1:10
I was wondering if anyone would catch that!
What brand of vac is that?
What is the benefit of having the dust drawer? Would it be more effective at collecting dust if the hole under the saw and the holes in the back were a part of the same plenum? I'm not sure if you tested that already or the dust drawer is there to make the shop vac work less hard but I would love to hear your answer.
The thought is to focus the vacuum on the dust hood portion. If the drawer was included the suction would be less focused especially with a big hole cut out. Almost all of the suction would go to that big hole and very little to the hood where you actually want it. The passive dust collection of the drawer seems to work pretty good.
@@JustinDepew That makes sense, thanks for the reply! I was thinking that you could use a smaller hole for under the saw if it had active suction there but it does seem like only a small portion of the dust ends up there anyway and the suction would be best saved for the down-draft section. This whole discussion is really making me think about how inherently dusty miter saws are lol.
I had the same question. His response makes sense with the dust collector that he is using. If it were attached to a more powerful collector then maybe the drawer is not required.
How about a dust collector for a dewalt trim router that forces all the dust downward
How do you cut a picture frame? I know why is called mitre saw do you?
I'll echo a hundred other comments...great concept & great execution! One question - do you ever find yourself wanting/needing to use a hold-down clamp when cutting rough lumber or larger pieces? (DC videos are also genius btw...) thanks.
Thanks Greg. In my miter saw station I have no problem holding down long boards with the extra support of the station. For short pieces I use a hold down stick that I made (I have a video on it).
Your shop vac looks cool, do you think this system is better than the dust duputy
I don't think so. It's probably about the same. Mine looks cooler though!
What color red did you use?
How very impressed how can I get the plans
Link in the description, of course
Is that it's final resting place? What if you have to cut an 8 foot board in half?
I plan to move it to the other wall which is 20 feet long. I'm going to build a miter saw station.
Dear Justin, what happens when you run out of red paint?
Another beautiful job.
👍 👍 👍
Couldn't you have used magnets on the front covers so that it would make it easier to take off? nice job on the build.
2:45 - DePEW PEW PEW!
In an age where you 3D print a needed part, it still pays to build something out of duct tape. I love it.
Nice!! I found your priorities for hearing protection over eye protection a bit ridiculous cause you can’t build anything if you can’t see...
Why not just delete the drawer and continue the downdraft table out front and under the saw? I think the rest of the build is awesome and I’ll definitely incorporate these ideas into my miter saw station. Should be easy since I have the same saw.
I have the same saw, and built a similar hood (not as nice). The biggest problem is that when you first plunge the blade, sawdust spews everywhere, and it will bounce off the front of the hood. Once the blade is under the surface of the board, then it all shoots straight back.
It's pretty, but I have a sliding compound miter saw...
This is not dust collection but a dust hider.
yet it is not miter saw any more but chop saw
No eye protection rookie. They don’t grow back.
Just in case you haven't seen DIY Montreal, I thought you might find this interesting -- you're on the same wavelength I think: ruclips.net/video/Fhwxqn532tg/видео.html
I had not seen that. Thanks for sharing. I like the sliding wings on that design. Very easy to use.
Ugly , but efective, Great idea
