I have a relatively new Powermatic 66 tablesaw that I would like to somehow improve on dust collection capabilities.  The saw has a 4 inch dust collection port at the bottom back of the saw which I have hooked up to 4 inch dust hose from my dust collector (1.5 hp Oneida Cyclone system).  However, when I use the saw, I still manage to get sawdust all over the place and me. 

Does anyone have any ideas on something I can build that would surround the blade/trunion a little closer without interfering with blade or trunion movement?  I note that the new Powermatic 2000 series tablesaws have nice dust collection system.  Perhaps and idea or something similar could be made and retrofitted to improve the dust collection capabilities of the PM 66 saws.

Thanks for any input or ideas.   Also,  Happy Holidays…
