I have several shops i work out of and always end up with messes around the Drill presses!! Seen the magnet bag clean up and seen someone hung a cookie sheet with some wire underneath table.

Need better ideas!!!

Stop using the DP to drill with. Just polish it and look at it and rub it with oil and call it Precious. :lol:

One of the best things I got for my mill was a tiny portable shop vac. Put it on a shelf on the wall behind. A little mag base and it picks up chips as they come off.

Now if you have a bunch of coolant and small chips you can carefully tap the center hole for a bottle.
