I got this on Amazon - and it works fantastic for me.
I recently used the drill press for a project and it was a big mess of dust.
(My drill press is a Ryobi - (similar in design to many other drill presses)
So to help with the dust collection - I got this -
DRILLNADO - for $50
4.1 out of 5 stars
It Works on drill press quills with a diameter of 2.6" or less
Snap to Remove the lower housing to easily change bits
Acrylic guard provides clear view of bit

Well organized shop you have there . Neat setup for the drillpress also , but I’d even be happy with a clamp holding a shop vac hose close to the centre

I bought one of these at a wood show several years ago. It really sucks up the chips but after using I found it had packed the drill chuck absolutely full of chips, to the point the key would hardly open the jaws! Was a real pain to blow all the chips and sawdust out and get the chuck working smoothly again. I really did like the way it minimized the dust/chips mess but not sure the gain was worth the pain.
