Rousseau 5000 Solution Miter Silver Review

Should get 3 1/2 stars but doesn't allow 1/2 stars. Easy to set up. Our machine is permanently installed in the joinery and yes, it reduces the amount of sawdust considerably. Ours is connected to our central dust collection system. That's why it doesn't get 5 stars. 1. When cutting at an angle of 40 degrees or more, the dust box on the saw is more inclined than the dust box receiving area. 2. Dust hangs in the bag and needs to be "knocked off the walls” so that it falls to the bottom of the…

Finally! I've tried everything to dust my shop, and the miter saw is probably the worst culprit (I have a DeWalt 12" miter saw, so I'm basing my conclusions on that). Surround the saw and it kind of worked, but not quite. My friend brought this device to my attention (I think he wanted me to check if he bought it. Smart) and after using it I have to say this is the real deal. Even without a vacuum cleaner connected, the dust absorption capacity of this hood is very noticeable. Haven't really…

The only thing in my workshop that has caused more dust than my chop saw when using it by hand. I have top of the line sanders with dust bags and a sanding station with top, back and sides [anything without them runs at 20% efficiency]. A jointer, planer, router table, band saws and other tools collect dust well, but the miter, a commonly used tool, was difficult to dust. The old projection TV case worked but was bulky. This solved that problem, collects dust well, is lightweight and still…

I am very impressed with how well this works. I installed it on a Ridgid 10 inch miter saw. Before my workshop full of hand tools was always littered with sawdust, every surface, high or low, continued to progress dusty. Dust rose in the women's sections, which negatively affected Summich's production. No longer. This hood catches 99% of the sawdust, which is now very rarely on the floor. Most of the sawdust from a miter saw exits the sides of the blade, so your bag or even your vacuum will…

Tried this with an older DeWalt 10" double guide miter saw. My saw is constantly buried in my workbench and this tent doesn't work at all. It does a good job of capturing everything but the tiniest particle of dust (which we have to watch out for), unless you have a standalone mobile station that allows the excess tent to hang from your back. This article won't work for you without a lot of fiddling. It doesn't actually suck dust from the saw into the vacuum port, it just controls the dust and…
