I have recently purchased a Jet 650CK dust collector and have hooked it up
to my table saw. I have attached the dust collector to the 2 1/2" dust
collection
port and with a splitter I have another dust collection point at the bottom
of the saw where I have sealed in the stand with a board and Delta dust
collection hood. I am getting much less saw dust but the forward motion of
the saw blade still kicks dust outward towards the operator.

In the book "Controlling Dust in the Workshop" by Rick Peters, he talks
about cutting a hole in your blade
guard and attaching a 2" hose. Have any of you tried doing this? Has it been
effective?

Thank you for your help.
