Finds: The Downdrafter

If this isn’t the kind of image that comes to mind when you hear the words “down” and “draft,” don’t feel bad.  I get images of fire and crap — not something that looks like the Sydney Opera House.  Post-modern design aside, the Downdrafter is actually a pretty cool plastic hood dust collection system for your miter saw.

It’s a large 21″ x 18″ x 19″ yellow dust collecting attachment that stands atop a locking pivot and airflow chamber — all of which allows it to be positioned in order to match the angle that your saw is cutting.  Hey — anything that speeds cleanup is ok by me.

Street pricing starts at $137.
