Glad to know I'm not the only one who likes a good RAS.

I just built something using your guidance but made the top out of clear acrylic so I could see if the sawdust was flowing freely and to catch any clogs in the system. Not perfect, especially when the blade is some distance from the fence, but it wicks much better that the home-brew version I had before. Thanks for the suggestion!!

Very creative and simple. Nice job!!!

You worked so fast and were so innovative, that you had Steve wondering which way way up (haha good prop)! That is one of the best dust collection ideas and build for both radial arm and sliding miter saws! Thanks for sharing!

When you gonna replace that old under the table Saw Saw with…. Another old saw that’s above the table Saw Saw 🏠 🍕?

My favorite tool is the band saw for sure. I need a good dust collection set up for sure.

BTW I’m picking up the same craftsman table saw that you restored. I’m sure I’ll be rewatching your videos on that project.

Great work Patrick... Mannn that made a huge difference. Steve Carmichael has to be dizzy by now..

My best tool is Radial saw and I really like that dust collection system

Thanks Patrick, I have started watching videos on my newest toy my craftsman RAS . Getting some Ideas for the set up ,dust collection, on Bench , all good things .I didn't know how I was going to do everything yet . But thanks to KZread I have got inspired and thinking 💭 lol thanks for sharing Regards BobLee

For a long time I used a radial arm saw for what most people use a table saw for. Now I have a table saw but still have the radial arm saw. Hope to get more use of the radial arm saw in my new shop I am building in the back yard. I also hope to use the same design you have for dust collection. Great job Patrick!! Love seeing Steve Carmichael's head spinning around :)

jigsaw light was killer - that RAS dust collection seems to work awesome - fave tool is my table saw - great job man!

Brilliant! I have the same saw and was about to re-invent the wheel when I looked up DIY dust collection on KZread you now have a new subscriber!!!

That was awesome! nice system, you can't beat good dust collection. I love the radial arm saw, the best tool hands down, agreed..

Patrick's work shop Pretty amazing difference in that dust maker! Great idea! I like all the white, it has a very clean look. I have to say my favorite tool in the shop has to be my tablesaw. Especially after I upgraded my fence. Great video man!

Very cool idea. I picked up an old DeWalt RAS at a garage sale and I'll have to fix that dust problem and here you are with a solution. As far as my favorite tool in my shop it depends on what I'm doing but for the go to it would have to be my band saw.

Epically done sir

great solution! your ideas will definitely help as I work out dust collection for an old Dewalt mbf saw I picked up last week

Patrick's work shop I love RASs too. I like your dust collection design, it may be the best I've seen for cross-cuts, which is about 50% of what I use a RAS for, then 30% for ripping and the rest for miters and bevels. Is it easy to remove if you want to move the fence to the back to rip plywood? Without some sort of dust control RASs are the biggest pigs in the shop.

Looks like it works Patrick. I will give it a go.

Great solution. I think I might do just the same with my messy radial arm saw. My favorite is my delta table saw. Though I am quite fond of my old Stanley and Bailey planes.

You did a slick job on this project! Also, Steve looks a little dizzy! lol

Hey Pat, hope everything is OK. Your view on projects is different and great! Keep um comin'. Thankz

Awesome Idea Patrick! I can't wait to put that style of dust collection on my early 70's Craftsman RAS.

I've seen lots of ideas, but this is the simplest, and looks to be the most efficient. Going to give this a try in the next week or so. Favorite tool is the Table saw.

Love the design man! Looks like it works great! They should have manufactured them with that on it! Favorite tool in the shop has to be the Bandsaw. If you can throw down some creativeness... A bandsaw can make you look like a Rockstar!

Thanks for a great idea Patrick, I stopped using my old 1970s DeWalt because of the mess. With this I can get it working again.

Great video Patrick....nice solution for the dust. Favorite tool is the bandsaw / lathe.

Great solution Patrick. I like that is not big a bulky, you can hardly see it. My favorite tool is my cordless drill.

Great idea Patrick, like the performance it has. Favorite tool in my shop is my shaper.

I would agree with you Patrick. My 50 year old Dewalt Radial Arm Saw is my favorite. You just can bet it for dado cuts.

Cool idea! Especially ducting the port at the top of the blade guard into the suction box. I'm probably going to borrow some of your ideas. Because I do a lot more than just crosscuts on my Radial Arm Saw (a Sears Craftsman from the mid-1970s) I will have to make adaptations. I need dust collection for rip cuts, miter cuts, shaping and jointing, and other operations. Your system is a good clean start for my ideas. Thanks!

That's a great solution Patrick!! Not sure what my favorite tool is yet Scott

That's a great idea! My favourite tool would definitely be my lathe. I could pay around on it all day long haha. Keep the great videos coming!

That is cool.I have had my RAS for thirty years,and finally did a similar thing.I wanted it right against the wall for space,so have 6x6x 14" upright box with opening at the top.Not as efficient as yours but does catch 90% of dust.My favorite tool is my 5 routers lol Love the router.

Very nice work Patrick and a great solution to the problem, my favourite tool in my shop is my Band Saw but I have to get me a spinning Steve Carmichael head now!

Just got a Craftsman 10" RAS at auction for $100 --- years ago my Dad bought a DeWalt RAS and it was a great saw for accurate cutting. We always had it at building sites. I really got used to it for quick and easy cross cuts, making identical length short pieces for various projects, etc. So when I get mine up to speed now, I think it will be my favorite tool also. I really like your dust collection idea - it is what I will need because I don't want a lot of dust in my shop.

Hi Patrick. Great dust collection solutuon for that saw. My favorite tool is the router table I recently purchased one and really like how you can do so much with it!

fantastic solution Patrick my favorite tool in the shop is my table saw

Cool solution to your dust issue. Stylish even, it blends right in with the table like it was meant to be there. As for my favorite tool.... Whichever one is the newest. In the past few months I have gotten a lathe, a lil bandsaw, and most recently a thickness planer.

Top job!

like it a lot. making one of those.......cheers Patrick................

Looking good Patrick! I think my favorite tool would be a 3 way tie between my bandsaw, my lathe, and my welder.

I seem to use the scrap made bench I move from outside to inside all the time, so my favorite tool is the scrap wood bench that I don't mind painting and tagging with AT-ATs.

Just came across your channel and I just got a RAS a few months ago but have not gotten it set up yet. its great to see your layout!
