In this video, I show you how I built an overarm dust collector for my table saw. With dust collection a top priority in my apartment workshop, I needed to improve the tabletop dust collection.  I've seen dust collectors similar to this design on google and in woodworking magazines.  I took some ideas from there as well as made my own improvements.

This design tries to focus the dust collection right over the saw blade.  I didn't want anything too big that would dwarf the tabletop and look out of place.  Having a smaller dust hood also helps improve the dust collection ability of the shop vac.

I added a great feature that helps improve the dust collection for "blade width" cuts or just cutting off a sliver of wood.  With the addition of a slide down panel on the side of the dust hood, hardly any dust gets away when making this cut.
