Dust Collection

I have a Grizzly mini wood lathe and it throws mucho dust.
What is the best way to control it?

I have been using a shop vac after the fact but want to put together something to keep it out of the air. I have visions of the furnace kicking off and me blowing up, Or, of my lungs caked with tokic wood dust, Or, of my wife kicking my butt as I send dust all throughout the house.

I have set up shop for a while in my basement. Soon will be in the folks barn but the dust problem will move with me...

I figure some hose and pvc to connect with the shop vac should do it. (plus filter bag in the vac). But I need some kind of baffle to put near the lathe.

photos of solutions?

There is a fine line that seperates a fisherman from a fool standing in water swinging a stick.

will cook for food
...and plugs
