<p>Wise decision. I've always been a huge fan of magnetic things. For some reason it always seems that it's a smart thing to add to stuff.</p>

<p>Hi Ill Green, I do this as a hobby too, but as my dust collection bag is emptied regularly ( it's about 1/4 full in that photo) I did not check inside the machine. All is about to change.</p>

<p>That is a much better dust collector than mine!</p>
<p>I guess the only thing to do would be to put a transparent panel on the side of the saw so you can keep an eye out for accumulation...</p>

<p>Hi, </p>
<p>Francois I do have a dust extractor it runs to every machine, and it does collect the dust. However the dust shoot on the sawbench is to the side of the saw and does not catch all the dust it seems.</p>
<p>In photo #3 above, I'm going to put another outlet in the left-hand wall of the cabinet facing the saw blade.</p>

<p>Holy C***!</p>
<p>That is a lot of sawdust!</p>
<p>I think you might benefit from having some sort of dust collection system. I made a Thien baffle type collector years ago and never regretted it. It sits on top of an 18 liter bucket that I empty a few times a year. The nice thing is you can see a bit through the white bucket so you know when it's almost full. Also, since I made the separator sides out of bent acrylic, just seeing the chips spin in there is better than watching…</p>

<p>Regular maintenance? Every 6 years? :D<br/><br/>I'm glad you didn't burn your shop down Taff, and thanks for the reminder... If I ever get a table saw I'll remember this.</p>

<p>That's an amazing amount of sawdust. Surprised that it didn't take out the saw motor.</p>
<p>I hate the piles of sawdust on the floor under my saw, but have never come up with a good collection system.</p>
<p>Thanks for sharing what can happen if we are not careful how we handle the sawdust issue.</p>
