Ok -- While we're on the subject. How do I actually collect dust from my
SCMS? Why bother with a bag -- there's more dust around my saw than there
is in the bag. I've looked and there doesn't seem to be a good way to
collect dust other than enclose the entire back in a box with a hole for
the dust collector hose. Is there another way?

This is one place to go big, or go home. This is what I use on my
Bosch:

This looks interesting, too:

My next step is the Kapex, though.
