Adding Shop Vac to Tools

[detroitdirtbag]

I just added a vac port to a table top Delta saw, and I’m looking for the rite size to add to my miter saw, I’m just tired of all the mess and clean up when doing projects or working at someone’s house. Also picked up a black and decker stand for the saw
21/4 vac hose goes in the back of the saw now.

I do recall seeing o n the site that shopvac had a dust collection set up that was attach to all the tools each tools had its own vacuum hose that was a mini central vac system.Not sure if you can find it now that the company has gone under but some pVC pipe and some tools im sure you can make one .

It's often referred to as a "dust collector"
As most shops have a dust collection system in them.
Looks like this Amazon link would do what you wanted to do.

I’m looking into getting a power plug that turn on/off vac when you turn on the saw. Looks like around $50. Should be nice.

Lol

A vacuum with a tube over the saw $170.
We use a hilti hammer drill to put anchor bolts into the ceiling which is concrete. The vacuum built into the drill i required for use in commercial applications. They run into the thousands of dollars.

The vac by the b,ace isn’t good, ac has to be down it the table saw. Plus you can’t use those guards.

The Vac Controller came today, haven’t used it yet but it should be nice. It turns on the vac when you turn on your saw.
I bought a couple fittings, now my chop saw and my small table saw has the dust collection.
