Rather than reinvent the wheel, here's a post of mine from a recent similar thread ....

I've been looking at different ideas for this. For now I'm keeping it in the garage with wheels on two of the three feet of the grinder stand so it can be tilted and rolled outside to do my grinding - weather permitting - and then tucked out of the way when in use, but I am looking to do something a little cleaner to keep a pair of grinders in the shop.

Here are some other's bench grinder dust collection solutions I've found elsewhere (links below) that may give you some ideas. The first just vents to a coffee-can canister with stove hood exhaust filters, second a DIY downdraft out of a garbage can, and the third ducts to a can filled with sand...

Here's a grinder I bought about a year ago. They used flexible exhaust pipe connected to a Y adapter, I imagine it would dump into a bucket.

Great thanks guys

So my progress so far. My grinder exhaust ports were square so I had to make some manifolds to convert to circle

Next I will find some piping in 3 "

Just thought to share my progress
