Default instructions for a build your own dust collector

Just starting out and have added tapered spindles to a 6 inch bench
grinder. I would like to have a dust collector located to the back of
the grinder/polisher. I did some searching but came up empty hande. Any
info is appreciated.

Thanks

Hi JS,

I built my own using a powerful but small filtered wet/dry Shop Vac.
(because the wet-dry has good filtration and a well-sealed container).

I built a dust hood and have the hose and end collector for the shop vac
fastened to it in the appropriate place, covered by a double thickness of
aluminum (not vinyl!) window screening to prevent the loss of small pieces.
Works like a charm.

Good luck!
