The other common trick for miter saw dust collection is to build a permanent station for it and build a hood around it. If you're going to keep it in the shop, that's a pretty good option.

[@CrossCultural-c7f]

I will have to say: the miter saw makes all kind of sawdust! Our maker space has hood plus a slanted sort of gray that attempts to direct the sawdust to the vacuum. That is reasonably effective *if* users remember to turn on the switch to the giant vacuum in the shop. I like the idea of having a smaller dedicated shop vac for the miter saw. The frosting on the cake would be to plug the saw & vacuum to a switch that turns the shop vac on when the miter saw turns on. And be sure to have one of those cyclone dust collector sort of set up that will keep suction power high.

Funny guy asking where you get your saw blades! I agree with you on work - I'm 80 yrs. old, and mow my lawn with a hand-pushed rotary lawnmower. I also rake my lawn with a hand rake, sweep off my sidewalk with a broom, and trim my tree limbs with a bow saw, for the same reason you do your physical labor - to stay physically fit. Never saw the logic in using labor saving devices around home, and then go to a gym for exercise, when just doing the exercise around home is time saving and cheaper. Love your show, and especially your comments when you get tongue-tied or make verbal flubs - do it myself all the time.

[@hillbillychic3933]

For my chop saw I use one of those little point of use vacuums that fits on the top of a 5 gallon bucket that automatically comes on when the chop saw starts up. It works okay but those chop saws throw dust everywhere.

I agree with you, Nathan, about the work. I'm 73 and I usually grab a wheelbarrow to move debris around unless it's something really strenuous. IT's just easier than getting the tractor and trailer out plus it gives me exercise. Bill

[@barrystrachan6340]

My dust collection strategy for my miter saw is a broom...lol

[@OutoftheWoods0623]

Best recommendation yet 😅😅

[@riversider681]

letting the saw throw the dust out the back puts way too much fine stuff into the air and then into your lungs. a small shop vac and small vortex generator will do the trick. I paid about $19 for my vortex, the 5 gal bucket was free at the home center and the lid was about $1.99. Since Shop Vac went out of biz about 4 new brands jumped into that space and they are always battling for the sale so they are pretty cheap.

I have a cardboard shield and a 20 gallon tote bin under the saw - about 80% = messy ... but if you heat up a piece of PVC, you can make it fit for both the saw and the hose - takes a bit of cussing to make it all fit - so mic off (lol) An option for the chicken run - you can run saw mill waste through a chipper and put that in there - they love it.

[@amorgan5844]

for your dust collection, add some life to your shop vac and buy a High Efficiency Cyclonic Dust Separator 12 in for a 5 gal bucket. its works wonders and no loss of vacuum.

[@sawdustmaker49]

My miter saw dust collection consist of a box in back of the saw with the insides angled to a 4" dust collector port at the bottom. I lined the box with formica. All the sawdust hits the steep angled sides, and slides off the formica. Almost all of it is sucked away. I have an onida dust gorrilla system.

[@jamesdickman8315]

Sawdust especially pine is good for potatoes in the garden. Also sawdust combined with lanolin is good for washing really dirty hands . Printers use that as a go to hand wash.

[@janeoverby2151]

I use a Dust stopper system in my shop vacuum it works great. Keeps my filter clean too.

[@bobwollard9105]

For dust collection at my miter saw I use a large shop vacuum with a Dust Deputy cyclone mounted between the vacuum and the saw. The Dust Deputy is mounted on top of a 30 gallon drum. This setup provides quite a long time between emptying.

[@daveyjoweaver6282]

I've been thinking about the chop saw situation an this is what I'm working on . Under the saw make a 2 inch void an drill alot of 3/8 holes in it. An put a slant on the bottom borad. Basically it's a dust collection table but on a smaller scale.

[@alwayssearching1882]

I have the same miter saw and it sucks as far as dust is concerned. Cutting pressure treated or wood that is slightly wet immediately clogs the small evacuation tube. I'm constantly having to clean it out but not the bag. If I were to put it in a permanent place I would put the saw on a separate shop vac hooked directly to the evacuation tube. Maybe you can make or find an adapter that fits the end of the evacuation tube that flares out to the size of your current dust collection system. Another option is remove the evacuation tube and have the dust collect into an angled hood that is connected to your new collection system.

White Pine is the only choice for shavings for chickens and turkeys. I used to work at a log home company and we sold our pine shavings to chicken and turkey farmers all the time.

[@antsquirly7654]

I've never worked with Walnut in any way except to eat them. As a retired landscaper, I've used various types of wood for mulching at the client's request, and sometimes the sawdust/clips from some sort of wood project of theirs. Softwoods are usually easy on the plants (roots) but hardwoods tend to be more problematic. My roomy listened to your commentary and added, "Walnut does not allow for worm development" I wouldn't know, he's from up north and I'm down here in the south, two different worlds. But it got me to thinking; down here developers use slash pine straw as a mulch, it's cheap. Problem is, the straw leaches the resin and changes the Ph so much that the roots atrophy, and gradually the plant dies. The beauty of a proper mulch is that it builds up the beds over time as it breaks down. Perhaps Walnut affects the Ph in adverse ways, too.

[@PenDragonsPig-Jam_on_Top]

My miter saw has a dedicated catch bag, but it's not a professional grade saw so I never generate very much dust at a time. Also a great answer about how much land you're on (not enough/ too much).

[@barryirby8609]

My chop saw sits on a shelf that is more like a box. From the fence forward the sides are slightly below the level of the table. There is enough of a front to enclose as much as I can and yet be able to turn and tilt the saw. Some sort of fabric might work better for that. There is a slot in the bottom back for the dust collection. The dust naturally sculpts itself inside the box. Works reasonably well.

An entry level, Technician Amateur radio license is pretty easy to obtain. It allows you privileges on the VHF-UHF range which is where you encounter local folks only. The equipment is fairly cheap and all VHF-UHF transceivers have a scanner feature. Normally these radios have to be programmed with the locally used frequencies but that's pretty painless with CHIRP software or included software or manually programming according to the included instructions. There are clubs in your north eastern TN to assist.

I agree. Regularly lifting stuff, pulling stuff is good for the body. And you actually accomplish something useful! I live in the city where I have older friends that exercise *only by walking*.

Fun video. To answer your question about miter saw dust collection. Yes, I agree with the dedicated vacuum. Especially if you get a high velocity model like Festool(more expensive). The other thing to do is try to create some sort of shroud around the saw to capture the debris. For an extreme example take a look at the set up used by youtube woodworker Rob Cosman.

[@jwdickinson643]

I have an identical mitre saw and discovered that unless you hook it up to a very high power vacuum, a shop vac does not have ample suction through the oem tube. I had to engineer up a three port vacuum each on separate 1 1/2 hoses attached to a three-way pvc Y connection into the shop vac. two of the three hoses were installed underneath the saw toward the back to collect the sawdust going off the sides. the center and third hose connected to the oem port tube. I still am only able to collect 75% of the sawdust, with the remaining going off to the side and behind the saw work station.

I agree with you--making the decision about labor-saving devices is always personal. For example, I'd love to still be making bread totally by hand, but the arthritis I have now says "Not if you want to be able to do anything else in the day!" so my best pal Kitchen-Aid does that work for me. But I still do most of the garden work by hand because I can change up my grip enough to prevent a major flareup, which will leave me pretty well useless for 24-48 hours. I will, however, confess to loving the battery-powered hedge trimmer I finally broke down and bought this year to help keep the neighbor's crazy invasive Japanese hyacinth and rose of sharon from storming over the fence and taking over my yard. Makes quick work of it and I can get on to other things rather than spending an entire afternoon swearing at branches. 😂 (And I hope the question about blades was just being silly rather than serious!)

"What kind of saw blades are you using" 🤣The shop is coming together, I would love to have that much room.

Love your attitude and thought process and honesty. I know you can use pine sawdust for chickens

[@dondonner1095]

Exactly right about work. Work keeps you healthy and nothing wrong with laboring in any way. Something the young men of today need to learn.
