>Fellow woodworkers,
Do any of you know if there is an after market dust collection "attachment" for my 36-650 contractors saw?
I did a google on this and was unsuccessful.
As always.....TIA

>There is available something called the Boot for the back of the saw.
You can also get a plate that goes under the saw with a 4" hose outlet connection.
You can see the Boot and a hose going underneath the saw.
"The SawShop" has them here in Canada. You might find it elsewhere in the US.

>Welcome to WC, Chuck! There are 2 Lenzes and one Lentz now.
Re: WOW!!!
Chuck Lenz
>Thanks Dale, funny you mention Lentz, I have a Lentz for a nieghbor, right across the alley from me.
Re: WOW!!!
Dale Lenz
>I bet you and your family have the same miss-pronunciation of Lenz as we do, Lentz. At least you can say Lentz lives across the alley, that is unless "The Millionaire" guy, Mike I believe, trying to give you a check. Are you old enough to recall that show? I was less than 10, late 1950's when that show ran in B&W, or was it our TV that was B&W, : ' >.

>Hi Terry, I did make it myself. If you would like one I need to know the outside measurements of your saws cabinet and the bottom opening. I'm thinking your saw cabinet is the same size as mine but I want to be sure. Your bottom opening will be different though, because the model I have came with a different stand. We can do this two ways, I can draw you up a blue print for free that you can take to your local sheet metal guys, or I can make you one once we agree on a price.
Been trying... *LINK*

>I don�t want to knock Chuck out of a job, but if you want to take a shot at making it yourself, you might try a plywood �hopper� or rectangular funnel and terminate it at the bottom in an �end Boot�. The Boot is a sheet metal piece they use on supply ducts to transition from the duct to the register in the floor. Most boots are set up so the opening is perpendicular to the duct, but an End Boot has the long dimension of the opening parallel to the duct. In my case I used a 4� (duct) boot that transitioned to a 2 �� by 10� opening. So, if you could build a hopper that had a 2 X 10 slot in the bottom you could attach the end boot tot that and have what Chuck posted. Actually, it would not be as pretty, but it would work. That really is a good looking piece of sheet metal work. End Boots locally sell for $3 or 4 each and a sheet metal/duct distributor.
Also, Wood Craft and anyone selling DC parts sell a sort of flat version of this. Basically a tray with a hole dropping out of the bottom center. I think it was about $15.
Also, you might want to increase the duct size to the largest your machine will support to get eh air flow that will suck stray particles in instead of letting them escape out the back of the cabinet.

>It's all about air flow Barry. Most of the air flow in my design comes down towards the front of the saws base opening, where the blade throws the most dust.

Re: Delta Contractor TS dust port plans
Chuck Lenz
>The blue print on this dust port is made for my 34-445 Delta Contractors table saw. The bottom opening in the base of that saws cabinet is 10" x 10". You will need a 25 1/2" X 23 3/4 " piece of sheet metal. I think I used 22 gauge. Measure your saws opening before proceeding.
