Hi, I recently retired and just sold all my larger woodworking tools to a younger neighbor, and bought a 22" Bauer from HF as a replacement. I've done a logo and a kids puzzle so far and I am liking the precision and Zen nature of just sitting there completely focused.

I do have a couple operational, dust related questions.

I did keep a dust collector setup, and for now mounted a plastic tote under the saw with a hole for the hose. This captures most all of the dust but not from the top.

I have seen the Scrollnado, and fashioned a similar setup with PVC for the top, but not really happy with it.

I also see many 3D printable underneath adapters which look promising.

Ideally, I would like to only have an under table setup, which leads me to want to drill a series of holes in my table around the blade hole, like I see on the Pegas saw, to allow top side dust to be sucked down.

I'd love any thoughts or solutions people have come up with and whether I am crazy to drill holes.
