dust collector for drilling downlight holes

[ExArmy]

a while back i saw some dust collector things advertised, and now i have 20 DL to fit into a finished kitchen which is double boarded and they are right over the worktops so collecting the dust at the top would save me ALOT of cleaning up, but i can't seem to find them anywhere. did i imagine it?

you didnt imagine it think it Is called DADE

 

[jaydee81]

Jaydee is spot on. DADE is a brilliant bit of kit, doesn't remove all mess but 99% of it. Saved me countless hours of cleaning.

I just use the box the downlight fitting comes in, but your boxes may be a bit too large if they are fire rated?

DADE all the way for me

thanks for all the replys. i've got one ordered already. i can see it being very useful, will keep all the dust off me too as last time i did a kitchen full of them i look like i'd done a shift at the mill
