How To Make A Custom Radial Arm Saw Dust Collection
Вставка
- Опубліковано 1 жов 2024
- In this video I make a custom dust collection setup for my Radial Arm Saw . I had a idea that will make using this saw for 90 deg cross cuts a pleasure to use with no dust making a mess of the shop or getting air born and messing up your lungs .
This is the best design I could think up to eliminate this huge dust making machine that I have
Please tell me what is the biggest mess maker in your shop ?

You've got a pretty happening beat in this one and a neat solution for the dust control. My favourite tool is my table saw, I love it! :)
John Heisz thanks John this dust solution does work great thanks for watching
I also own a Craftsman RAS. I have the back stop style dust deflector (Catches some). I will have to see if I can add something like this to mine. Thanks for the video. And thanks John for sharing.
When you gonna replace that old under the table Saw Saw with….
Another old saw that’s above the table Saw Saw 🏠 🍕?
I just built something using your guidance but made the top out of clear acrylic so I could see if the sawdust was flowing freely and to catch any clogs in the system. Not perfect, especially when the blade is some distance from the fence, but it wicks much better that the home-brew version I had before. Thanks for the suggestion!!
check out this solution to dust control on my favorite tool in the shop and let me know what your favorite tool is
Patrick's work shop I love RASs too. I like your dust collection design, it may be the best I've seen for cross-cuts, which is about 50% of what I use a RAS for, then 30% for ripping and the rest for miters and bevels. Is it easy to remove if you want to move the fence to the back to rip plywood? Without some sort of dust control RASs are the biggest pigs in the shop.
Awesome video Patrick! Great solution. You're like an RAS MacGyver man. Love the music...that should be your theme song. Fits your vibe well. I'm feeling kind of dizzy for some reason. lol
Steve Carmichael Oh, and my favorite tool is the bandsaw!
Steve I thought it was just me feeling dizzy for some reason...go figure lol
Steve Carmichael thanks Steve i am like Macgyver i can fix anything this is the fist time i added music to a vid since last year and i kinda like this song but am not sure thanks for watching
Sweet project Patrick! Watch out man, Carmichael's coming right for ya! Love the custom light on your jigsaw btw. Might have to borrow that idea. I seem to use the scrap made bench I move from outside to inside all the time, so my favorite tool is the scrap wood bench that I don't mind painting and tagging with AT-ATs.
Great build Patrick, I can think of my favorite tool.......:)
Carl Jacobson hmm its a jig saw right thanks for watching Carl
I have an old Craftsman RAS. I found there was a safety recall available for the saw. It comes with a better blade guard which also changes the shop vac port to the rear of the guard. Check out www.radialarmsawrecall.com for more information.
Jesse Fast this saw dose have the recall but since it works so well and even if it didn't i wouldn't never give the carriage to them for the lousy 100 bucks they are offering
BTW I’m picking up the same craftsman table saw that you restored. I’m sure I’ll be rewatching your videos on that project.
Glad to know I'm not the only one who likes a good RAS.
Your fingers are too close for comfort use push block . I bought a nice push block in lowes for $6.50 it has a red nice handle and thick rubber I think that original design for grout I bought two and use the other handle to make a copy of The Gripper.
Very creative and simple. Nice job!!!
Your ingenuity is inspired! A very clever solution Patrick!
Peter Brown thanks buddy it works rather well for a box and shop vac thanks for watching
Much better. My favorite is my jointer
Matthew Cremona awesome my favorite tool in your shop is also your jointer thanks for watching
jigsaw light was killer - that RAS dust collection seems to work awesome - fave tool is my table saw - great job man!
Great work Patrick... Mannn that made a huge difference. Steve Carmichael has to be dizzy by now..
Nice solution! But what about mitered cuts? I suppose you could just angle the workpiece with an adjustable fence. That way the saw always stays square to the main fence.
Favorite tool - folding carpenters ruler. I have one of my own and one I inherited from my dad after he passed away. Using it reminds me of him.
Always glad to see users of the Radial Arm Saw. They are a saw dust maker thats for sure. What tool isnt. LOL Im hoping to get my hands on my grandfathers RAS soon. He has passed. RIP. Im sure he would have loved all this available UA-cam content. My dad has it for now but dosent use it much. Fingers crossed. My fav? What ever works to get the job done.
David Bishop Hey David sorry to hear about your loss and i agree about the dust o well i did b 4 this video thanks for watching fingers crossed thanks for watching
Nice solution to a major problem! I know what a mess a RAS can make... :)
Jer's Woodshop yup it sure does thanks for watching and commenting
Great idea for a great tool! I also have a r.a.s. and hell yea its sef a dust maker. "Play that funky music white boy" ;) haha
My favorite tool wood be my bandsaw Its not used the most but I love using it! Thanks for sharing pat!
For a long time I used a radial arm saw for what most people use a table saw for. Now I have a table saw but still have the radial arm saw. Hope to get more use of the radial arm saw in my new shop I am building in the back yard. I also hope to use the same design you have for dust collection. Great job Patrick!! Love seeing Steve Carmichael's head spinning around :)
Funny Spinning Steve, Great video Patrick
Mike Fulton thanks Mike glad you liked it thanks for watching
Thanks Patrick, I have started watching videos on my newest toy my craftsman RAS . Getting some Ideas for the set up ,dust collection, on Bench , all good things .I didn't know how I was going to do everything yet . But thanks to UA-cam I have got inspired and thinking 💭 lol thanks for sharing Regards BobLee
Great idea Patrick's work shop my favorite tool is my table saw, but i just got a new bandsaw...haven't had time to play with it much...i plan on building your circle jig, and ur scoops on it when i do...thanks
Well, in your shop, I'm going to have to go with a rotating Carmichael as my favorite tool. I wonder if we can all pick on up at Harbor Freight or something.
Good solution for dust collection on a RAS.
As for my favorite tool, I'd probably have to go with the one between the ears.
Patrick's work shop Pretty amazing difference in that dust maker! Great idea! I like all the white, it has a very clean look. I have to say my favorite tool in the shop has to be my tablesaw. Especially after I upgraded my fence. Great video man!
WoodworkingManiak thanks Tim thanks for watching
Yeah! RAS owners of the world unite! Can I confess? I'm a little bit afraid of mine - how about a vid about tuning up your RAS? (Or did I miss that already.) Great vid mate, love your voice over work.
Love the design man! Looks like it works great! They should have manufactured them with that on it! Favorite tool in the shop has to be the Bandsaw. If you can throw down some creativeness... A bandsaw can make you look like a Rockstar!
Good solution. Dust collection is in my very near future.
Cool idea! Especially ducting the port at the top of the blade guard into the suction box. I'm probably going to borrow some of your ideas. Because I do a lot more than just crosscuts on my Radial Arm Saw (a Sears Craftsman from the mid-1970s) I will have to make adaptations. I need dust collection for rip cuts, miter cuts, shaping and jointing, and other operations. Your system is a good clean start for my ideas. Thanks!
Great idea! liked :)
Mark Fisher, Ukraine.
I really enjoy watching your videos. My favorite tool must be the hammer. Probably the 3yearold in me ☺. You can whack something in place or tap misalignment. I recently got a table saw and I'm still a bit of afraid of it. Love to use it anyways.
Just got a Craftsman 10" RAS at auction for $100 --- years ago my Dad bought a DeWalt RAS and it was a great saw for accurate cutting. We always had it at building sites. I really got used to it for quick and easy cross cuts, making identical length short pieces for various projects, etc. So when I get mine up to speed now, I think it will be my favorite tool also. I really like your dust collection idea - it is what I will need because I don't want a lot of dust in my shop.
What a great solution! I don't really have a favorite tool. They are like a music band or orchestra. They all work together to perform a great piece ... Love them all:)
Construct Icon thanks ! awesome answer to the question i asked thanks and thanks for watching Patrick
That's a great idea! My favourite tool would definitely be my lathe. I could pay around on it all day long haha. Keep the great videos coming!
awesome. I like it. I recently acquired a RAS and was wondering what I was going to do for dust collection. Now I know. Thanks
I would agree with you Patrick. My 50 year old Dewalt Radial Arm Saw is my favorite.
You just can bet it for dado cuts.
Very cool idea. I picked up an old DeWalt RAS at a garage sale and I'll have to fix that dust problem and here you are with a solution. As far as my favorite tool in my shop it depends on what I'm doing but for the go to it would have to be my band saw.
I liked everything with two caveats: 1. The music drove me crazy. 2. What about angle cutting?
Great video thank you for sharing.
Thanks for watching.
I think I'll try tjis--tganks! But please please use a push stick. I hate cringing when I watch a how to. My favorite tool is my fingers!!!
Now that we' re approaching the two year mark how well has the system performed? Obviously nothing is able to get all the dust, but yours is the most streamlined I've seen. my dad built a huge plywood shroud that merely functioned like a backboard and bounced the dust back on his work.
You did a slick job on this project! Also, Steve looks a little dizzy! lol
I"ve been using a R.A.S. sence I was in high school. That was in the early 60"s it was the only stationary saw that I had at the time. used it for all positions. I trust a R.A.S. over a table saw anytime.
Well done! Impressively great idea. I don't even have a RAS but if I ever get one I'll steal this idea.
Very nice work Patrick and a great solution to the problem, my favourite tool in my shop is my Band Saw but I have to get me a spinning Steve Carmichael head now!
That's a great solution Patrick!!
Not sure what my favorite tool is yet
Scott
Oh, favorite tool is the table saw. Band saw was but I found it to be more dangerous then the table saw........the hard way.
I did a lot with a radial arm saw. I used it for ripping, dados and other stuff. They say they can be dangerous but I still have all,of my digits. However, I would not use it anymore for anything but crosscuts.
Great video Patrick....nice solution for the dust.
Favorite tool is the bandsaw / lathe.
I don't get why all the beveling to create the box. After assembly you still wind up with internal 90 degree corners.
Great solution. I think I might do just the same with my messy radial arm saw. My favorite is my delta table saw. Though I am quite fond of my old Stanley and Bailey planes.
nice. I've got something similar in mind for my chop saw.
Favorite tool is the pliers in the leatherman in my pocket. Use it all teh time everywhere...
otherwise, in the shop, well probably them clamps which are so handy some times...
That was awesome! nice system, you can't beat good dust collection. I love the radial arm saw, the best tool hands down, agreed..
great solution! your ideas will definitely help as I work out dust collection for an old Dewalt mbf saw I picked up last week
My fav tool is a 1958 Rockwell bandsaw that I just restored.
Looks like a winning solution to me :D
Looks like a great solution. I will have to remember it if I ever get mine set up where it is useable.
Thanks patrick. From one patrick to another.i liked the box idea. Its not a bad solution. Worked great in my shop.
Your sawdust needs to make a pretty hard turn there to get to the grey pipe. Do you find dust settling in the box? If "yes", how do you clean it?
My favorite tool is the band saw for sure. I need a good dust collection set up for sure.
Cy's Corner Hi Cy ; ) I like the band saw to and having dust control is important even a little control is better than none thanks for watching Patrick
Your video would have been great if you did not have horrible noise that some call music. Oh well.
frank howarth just linked to this video. did you see a big spike in views?
where you been patrick?? hope all is well with ya man!! ttyl
Curious you didn't use your radial arm saw to make the miter cuts on the short end of the boards which would have been safer and easier than using that goofy mini crosscut sled.
patrick what about rip cuts? See if you can come up with one more great idea for this. My favorite tool is my power matic table saw
Good build and it works. My favorite tool is the table saw. Next band saw,then the router, Steve is always going in circles LOL
Backyard Woodworking thanks Roland and thanks for watching
May I ask? Why are you using the table saw rather than the radial arm?
Hey Patrick,
My Dad had that same saw when I was a kid! He just pointed the damned port to the back of the work bench then made me climb under there and clean it out every once in a while haha.
As for favorite tool, so far it's the bandsaw I think, and I love the "cu-chunka" of the brad nail gun :D
Meghan Mowder Hi Meghan thanks for watching and i also love the band saw and brad nailer thanks for commenting
I have that same saw and I love it
Me too! I bought mine from Sears in Quincy, MA, in 1973.
Just came across your channel and I just got a RAS a few months ago but have not gotten it set up yet. its great to see your layout!
No more dust! Good job
Hey! Patrick,
Love your dust control system. Very cool.
Pity people have such a negative view of the RAS for ripping. I use mine for ripping regularly; have never had a problem.
But then I have my own system and set-up which has worked safely for me.
My favorite (power) tool is my Radial Arm Saw without doubt.
Brendon
+Waney Edge Workshop thanks Brendon I too love my RAS i primarily do cross cuts with this one but as a kid my pops used to rip mega board feet with the one he had thanks for watching
Wohooo First! Just Kidding, nice video. I love the way you handle the saw, The dust collection seems to work very good. May I ask you what kind of video software do you use? Before I forget, my favourite tool in the shop is the router.
Frank Haider hi Frank thanks so far i have been using my ipad for all my vids and i am looking to upgrade as soon as i can get some extra money for it thanks for watching and commenting
I picked up a 1986 Sears Craftsman 10 inch radial arm saw. I love it except for the freaking dust. I may try your idea. Thanks for making the video.
Its worth the 1/2 hour of sawing, believe me. I have a Harbor freight dust collector attached to it and shortly am going to find a road cone somewhere to try his other great idea..
Three years in...how is it holding up for you?
Finally a video about my favorite tool, RAS Forever, thanks.
Stephen Andrusco awesome glad you liked it thanks for watching
like it a lot. making one of those.......cheers
Patrick................
Great solution Patrick. I like that is not big a bulky, you can hardly see it. My favorite tool is my cordless drill.
Very creative Patrick's work shop, I have a craftsman radial arm saw too that I used most of the time. Thanks for the idea and I like the boxes you made to extract all the dust, I plan on making one this summer. Thank you.
Great solution Patrick, looks awesome. Once I get my RAS going I'll have to make this too. Thanks for adding to my to do list ;)
Oh, my band saw is my favourite
Cheers
Mark
Great video Patrick! I partially like the spinning Steve Carmichale in the background ;) lol
Passion Woodworking thanks and thanks for watching
Wow that really seems to work well! Nice work Patrick! As for my favorite tool, its probably the bandsaw.
TabLeft Workshop Thanks Ray it works great and thanks for watching i also like my bandsaw
The spinning Carmichael says, "Fear Not the Radial Arm Saw!"
Good solution!
Rob Harrod thanks Rob thanks for watching
Nice solution for dust collection there!! My favorite tool is....uh... errrrr...
WHOA!! LAWD HEP ME!! I'M BEING HIP-NO-TIZED BY THAT SPINNIN' CARMICHAEL!!!
My best tool is Radial saw and I really like that dust collection system
Very nice solution. My favorite tool is My Radial Arm Saw!
Michael Olson awesome then i take it you know what i am talking about thanks Michael for watching
Awesome video. Nice Solution for dust control.
Great video Patrick. That made a huge improvement. I am trying to figure out dust collection for my ras while ripping. Any ideas?
+Phillip Donohue hi Philip to be honest with u i really dont use my RAS for other than cross cuts but if i had to think of a design i would prolly go with a setup like a cnc with a boot just a thought good luck and thanks for watching
good stuff brother.
My favorite tool is my Rigid Sliding Miter Saw, 12", tilts both directions combined with a rolling work table, it rocks...
Paul Bialozor Nice choice ! thanks
almost looks like it came from the factory that way good job man! Oh and favourite tool is my ridgid table saw or is it my 788 scroll saw? humm damn i Can't decide lol
Patrick, I couldn't find a video in your collection on how to make a new table for the Radial Arm Saw. Do you have one? Any suggestions?
I actually put it on top of a old kitchen cabinet I found
My favorite tools are a bandsaw, lathe, and a scroll saw.
Wow, that works surprising well. Great idea! My favorite tool is my domino.
Brian McCauley oh that's a cool tool for sure thanks for watching and commenting
nice job Patrick, my favorite tool is my shop broom! cause I don't have dust collection :(
That really works great Patrick and the music adds a nice touch.Keep up the good work, you come up with terrific ideas. My favorite tool has to be my table saw.
Larry Clement thanks Larry yup a good table saw is the heart of the wood shop thanks for watching
Is that a 'regular' DeWalt blade, or did you find one w/ a 0 / neg. hook angle? Still unsure on running the one i started cleaning up with a regular blade. Finding one with a negative hook angle is impossible unless i order online. Thought about running a 0 angle since I can find them at Sears.
Andrew Rowe hey Andrew the blade I have been using is the crosscut dewalt blade I think the 60 tooth one. I like how it cuts and it leaves a clean cut edge I have a neg rake blade from the saw when I got it and they are hard to find so I use this on thanks for watching.
Nice!
that is a great way of containing the dust from that monster!!
Cool solution to your dust issue. Stylish even, it blends right in with the table like it was meant to be there. As for my favorite tool.... Whichever one is the newest. In the past few months I have gotten a lathe, a lil bandsaw, and most recently a thickness planer.
I made one with 3 inch pvc works similar
Looks good - very well made and a good fix
Christopher Demetrick thanks Chris
