Shopsmith 510/520 dust collection

Post by jjj240 »

Attached is a typical saw dust accumulated underneath of SS table (w/ dust collection attached). I know SS does not provide the best dust collection among the tools, but I am wondering how other users deal with any improvements.

Please share your ideas/improvements. Thanks.

Check out this thread, the videos referenced in it, and the deflector designs shown, particularly second page.
