https://sid07designs.com/drill-duster-home/ Siddarth Gupta is the inventor of the Drill Duster, a simple mechanical accessory that can be attached to any hand-held drilling machine to collect dust at the very source without the need of any additional motors or batteries. It protects your lungs by keeping the work environment dust-free during and after drilling, can collect and store dust for up to 20 holes, weighs less than 100 grams, and avoids all the mess so that no post-drilling clean up is required, ever!

Sid explains the origin of his invention, which is patented in India and on the market now.

"One of my early days after coming back to India from Germany having completed my masters, I was drilling a hole on the ceiling of my room to hang my bicycle that was rusting in the backyard and came across a pain.

During the process of drilling, quite a significant amount of dust was generated and some of it fell on my right eye, even though I was wearing eye protection. I had an eye infection for about a week and really thought to myself: Why was there no solution to collect dust for the most used power tool, the drilling machine? I went to the web and found some solutions, however, most of these solutions required an external vacuum cleaner to collect the dust and others were just below par designs when it came to capturing the lighter air borne dust (that caused my eye infection).

So, he designed a better solution that utilizes the already available forces and motion during drilling to extract the drill dust. This is a very clever design. Congratulations Sid!
