Workshop Development #36: Sliding Miter Saw Dust Hood. Success and failure...

Over the weekend I cobbled together, out of scrap in my shop, a quick and dirty sliding compound miter saw dust hood.

Materials are cast off 3/16” tempered hardboard for the back and ramp, 5/8” Aracuo ply for the top and sides, screws, nails, and of course 4” S&D PVC.

I made a measurement error on the width, even after measuring 3x, and ended up about 1” too narrow. But I can slide it back and forth as I go all the way with miter cuts…

I still have to seal the port hole that the 4” went through, and am likely to swap the Ridgid vac hose for my Peachtree hose to make connection easier. I won’t fee quite so bad about cutting the Peachtree hose…

It’s a simple open box, with a shallow ramp that simply guides the junk to the port. No clue how well it is going to work, but it has to beat just the vac hose port…
