At the WW show I had a look at the lengths some demonstrators went to with
dust collection and crowd safety. I saw some fully enclosed acrylic
booths,
multi-hose designs that looked like the set from Alien, wooden entrapments
and and some light plastic shrouds.

None of them worked very well, some of them could not have worked in
mitre/compound mode.

High velocity shop vacs simply are not good enough, it needs a full 4"
hose
IMHO. So, does anyone have a good (simple) design for a Makita LS 1013? I
am
keen not to extend the depth of the saw beyond the normal extended length
of
a full depth cut.

Anyone? Bueller?

I saw a design (can't recall where just now) where there was a clamshell or
shroud shaped device at the back of the chop saw. Think of those old phone
booths where you stuck your head into a clamshell to talk. There was a 4"
port at the back of the of the clamshell. I think the idea was that since
the chopsaw throws its waste away from the operator, it would exit towards
the back of the shell and into the 4" port.
