Being new to festools and simultaniously becoming serious about dust containment (the new federal law helps) i'm playing with improving the general "capture ratio" of my power tools, from my table saw to my miter saws and all my tools (sanders primarally) that are not "dust free" or even desinged for dust containment. I'm looking for hints, tricks and leads on what works for others and happy to share my own sometimes laughable efforts at dust containment.

My favorite find of the week is "Simply Lemonade" a product that my girlfriend drinks from safeway. The bottle tops fit the stock vacuum hose perfectly and are large enough to tape / poly glue onto my existing saws with major improvement in dust capture and polishing my work persona without spending aditional money on adapters and parts.

your experience and suggestions are welcome.
