Wonderful analysis. Thank you! I will make use of your internal chamber shape design soon when I make such hoods for two of my table saws. I also want to add adjustable pressure rollers to the hood component, thereby adding the value of a second useful functionality to the investment I will have in the overarm structure. This secondary function will require that adjustment of the hood's position with respect to the blade be more secure and therefore, I presume, a little less convenient. But integration of these functions seems both elegant and economical.
I think it would get in the way if it was at the front, (i.e. the reverse of the current position) but maybe at the top, so that the air doesn't have such a large change of direction.) Seeing the dust collect in the corner seems to be the opposite of useful. (Like having a cyclone separator built into the device that is designed to collect.)
Very nice new build. Your adjustments to airflow were great. However, those were upcuts from the opposite direction of normal cutting. You didn’t show normal cuts from the front did you?
Helpful. My table saw has a vacuum attachment on the blade guard but the dust extraction is from below. Must experiment with blade guard dust extraction. Thanks for informative video.
You made is smaller thus increasing the air velocity. But you should od put the hose on the top or on the front. You are fighting inertia of the particles and loosing. instead you should use that inertia to collect the particles. C- Design
Im no expert but, if you would have lowered the blade at 0:37 to the minimum height, wouldnt the saw throw out the chips more upwards than to the front?
i think he cut it backwards so the dust goes up and end up above the table, if he cuts it normally most of the saw will end under the table and we wouldn't see so much dust getting sucked to test it's efficiency
Loved it. Learnt much on the direction of dust with your demo's. Champion for uploading a fine vid.
THANK YOU for documenting these experiments and demonstrations. LOTS of useful info here!
Amazing work!! It just blows me away with how much thought gets put into your projects,,

Very good. I am constantly fighting a dust problem in my shop. I enjoy your craftsmanship.
Hi Cosmas, wouldn’t it be more efficient to situate the extraction outlet at the front of the dust hood? Maybe a stupid question, but I wonder…
I’m also interested to hear your thoughts on this idea.

It would probably need the intake at a less useful angle than the back approach allows. But if it wasn't in the way it'd probably work pretty great
This Bavarian farmer boy hardly answers any comment.
I agree with the air flow. Thanks for sharing!

Super interesting. I am surprised by the best path for the sawdust but in retrospect it makes perfect sense.
Great design and what an improvement! Thank you for posting
I just built an overhead dust system, but it’s extremely inefficient. I’m going to try your idea today. Thanks!
Another really nice project. Thank you for sharing.

Consider mirroring the small piece on the bottom also to the top right, maybe it would stop the heavier dust from being caught there?
Very nicely done! Thanks for showing it.
This is by far the best DIY dust hood that I have seen, and I have looked at a lot of them
That’s a nice build but why not just turn it around so the dust goes right down the vacuum tube?
Amazing !... as always. Thanks for sharing.
Excellent service
What about mounting the dust collector above the table saw, to improve suction?
Nice saw for a furniture maker. Who made it? Interesting insights into dust hoods, too. Thank you.

Where did you get this cool arm lefting the dust collecting hood ?
It was fabricated by the previous owner of the saw.
Im no expert but, if you would have lowered the blade at 0:37 to the minimum height, wouldnt the saw throw out the chips more upwards than to the front?
Best of luck with your work and cool content
Brilliant!
Very clever! Nice work.
Why did you test it using a climb cut?
i think he cut it backwards so the dust goes up and end up above the table, if he cuts it normally most of the saw will end under the table and we wouldn't see so much dust getting sucked to test it's efficiency
Мне очень сильно кажется, что автор подает заготовку не с той стороны диска. =)))) 4:18
Nice dust hood! We featured this video on our homemade tools forum this week :)
Anotherone bites the dust!
But why no dimensions??????
Dimensions for what?
Wonderfully and cool idea's
