Your cart is empty.The Dust Buddie is your solution to the dust cloud created when cutting concrete with a worm drive or hypoid circular saw. It is universal for 7-1/4" worm drive and hypoid circular saws. Using vacuum suction, it captures up to 99% of the dust created when cutting concrete and stone products. Six non-marking wheels allow the shroud and tool to glide with ease to keep cuts straighter and prevent damage to your work surface. There are no tools required for installation. The simple hook-and-loop attachment method allows you to get to work faster without hassle. This shroud is made of a durable blend of polycarbonate & ABS attached to a stainless steel base plate. Two rubber dust shields collect dust from both the front and (optionally) back of the blade. The Dust Buddie complies with OSHA silica laws and EPA regulations for point-of-origin dust collection. For full performance, use this shroud with a vacuum rated at 120 CFM or greater such as the Dustless HEPA Wet Dry Vacuum. This product connects to 1.25" and 1.5" hose cuffs using the included adapter. Includes (1) Dust Buddie, (1) primary front rubber dust shield, (1) optional rear rubber dust shield, (1) 1.5" x 1.5" swivel cuff adapter, (1) front spacer, and (1) releasable tie for keeping the hose out of the way.

Used this with circular saw to cut 3cm granite in a kitchen. Using a clamped down guide, it took about 4 passes to cleanly cut thru. Covered the area with plastic overhead to the floor, vented the vacuum hose out a window with an extension, barely had any dust escape into the kitchen area. It's a great tool, but needs to be reversible for different directions of cuts, different sides the saw blades are on (L vs. R). I retro fitted it and it worked well.

Oh yeah, this baby definitely cuts down on the dust!!! We were remodeling a hotel and putting up solid surrounds. We were able to cut in the rooms without choking on the dust. I thought about a special saw, but this enables me to keep using my current DEWALT!!!

I bought to use cutting pavers. Several problems became readily apparent.1. Depth of cut: the foot plate is so thick that I can’t cut a paver in one pass. This means I have to flip them over and try to match the cuts. That’s hard to get just right. No big deal so far, when I can hide those edges, but not good for the rest of my patio. With a 7” concrete blade the depth of cut measures 1.25 inches, which with a wood blade might just barely be enough to cut a 2 x 4.2. The whole foot seems to lose 90 degrees, and be slightly off.3. The vacuum hose attaches horizontally, flush with the bottom. This means that the hose can snag on the edge of the paver, and detach. Wouldn’t be an issue if you were cutting lines in concrete slab4. Dust collection is decent. If you go really slow. If you go at any pace, dust escapes. I tried setting up a second vacuum, but that would need something like a built up cutting box.Overall, a purchase I regret for this project. If all you were doing was cutting lines in concrete, where depth was no matter, this might work great.

Works good. Picks up dust and rolls well on broom finished concrete.

This is the best product on the market for a worm drive saw that I know of. As Siding contractors we own and use several of these constantly. Most of our work is with fiber-cement products, on commercial and multi- family projects that have strict safety regulations. These meet all of the new OSHA silica dust rules. This greatly reduces dust pollution in the cut station. I highly recommend this product.
