Tablesaw Dust Collector

This tablesaw dust-collector hood is effective as well as convenient. The big window lets you see your cut at all times, and neither the hood nor its support will impede your sawing.

Safety Warning

Safety Warning: Do not remove a factory-installed blade guard to install this accessory. We've designed this dust-collector hood for those who do not have the blade guard provided by the saw's manufacturer. You must use feather boards in conjunction with this hood; we show you how to build those on page 14 in the Downloadable Plans. In use, adjust the height of the hood over the saw table to suit the thickness of the stock you're sawing, and tighten the wing knobs. We like to set the height to the thickness of the material plus 1/4".

Why are these plans not in pdf format. It would be a lot easier to download.

Go to "Pages in this story". Left click on "Start collecting dust". Below the copyright line left click on "For free plan click here". The PDF file will show up, with MSN click on File and then Save as. This worked for me.

Free is a very abstract term. Do you mean "free" as in free beer- Here's a glass of beer?" Or do you mean "free beer"- Here's what we would like you to do?

Ditto - I get this error message when trying to download the plan; "Adobe Acrobat could not open file 'Dp-00097[2].pdf' because it is either not a supported file type or because the file has been damaged."

I'm on a Mac so I can print anything to a .PDF file. Here's one way around the problem of file being corrupted: Use the application Evernote. This allows you to copy entire pages for archiving. You could also try to copy and past all the text and images into your word processing software to create a file with everything you need.
