    Dust collection in a Jet cabinet saw

    I know this has been talked about in the past here on the forum, but I am ready to do something about it myself. While I love and cherish my Jet cabinete saw...I would truly like to see better dust collection with it. Basically, it only captures sawdust off of the blade within a shround. Lots of dust gets down inside the cabinet and has nowhere to go. I have occasionally taken the blade off and blown compressed air down inside which forces it up into the shroud and into the collection system..but there must be a better way. Has anyone actually cut a 4" hole into the back of the cabinet so that they could mount a collection line to it to directly get to the dust inside the cabinet? Has anyone tried this or any other method that was successful at getting the massive amounts of dust from inside? Let's here 'em.
