I'm tired of using cutting oil or the like on a drill press and making such a mess. I'd like to hook something up similar to what I've seen on band saws, lathes, etc where a cooling system is set up with a catch system and the coolant is essentially filtered and re-used. Is there something already on the market for purchase that I've not seen, or am I going to have to make something? Please point me in the right direction.

"Granpappy rigged up a Funnel under the drill plate that would recapture any slough and drips. In the funnel was a paper cone filter that would pull out any metal shavings. the catch can had a spigot on it that he could then use to drain into the pump can. the pump can is what he used to lubricate.
make Sense? And he was a Machinist for Boeing...."
Thanks.
