I Upgraded my cardboard box dust collection system for the miter saw.

The lid is not on yet so I could take photos.

The new box is taller and I added the flex pipe to the saw. When I lowered the saw to cut, the saw outlet would point up and dust would bounce off the lid of the cardboard box. The weights on the end of the pipe is designed to keep it pointing down.

I should have made it a bit wider but that was the size of the off cuts, in the right miter the motor is in the way.

The plug in the hole is the bit that came out of the hole for the pipe and the fancy knob is the first thing I saw that would do the job.
