Building a workstation for a friend and don’t have a good idea for dust collection he has a hitachi slider. It was much easier for my radial arm saw. I am attaching a picture of situation. Any ideas would be helpful. Thanks James

A hose to the dust port will get about 30% but you need a housing behind the blade to get the 50% that is still possible. The housing need to allow the the arm to swing and still collect the dust that spins off the blade while cutting. None of the dust collector solutions get all the dust from the slider or a chop saw. IMHO, this is the best saw though...congrats Aloha, Mike
