Trying to design a cabinet setup for a Bosch Sliding Compound Miter Saw. The height width and depth are fairly straight forward, but I would like to build a dust hood that will be connected thru my system to a ClearVue Cyclone. It will have a top and bottom and maybe even a back dust connector to get all of those really nasties out (I know day dreaming). Obviously to minimize forward flying dust, it is best to create some sort of shield or block, but the openings can not be too tigh on tolerances as the various movements of the saw (tilt/compound) need to be taken unto account.
Anyone drawn a too scale miter saw on SketchUp that can actually be rotated to aid in dimensional analysis? Also, with all above being said, I seldom (don't think ever) have used the compound miter setting for the saw, so do i even need to worry about that? Saw an online vid where the guy just made the cover for the up/down, L/R function and secured with magnets that he could remove it in the event he ever did need the compound settings. Thoughts or pics?
BTW, the Bosch is the old style with the long rails off the back, so the depth of the box has to be fairly deep. 466450
