Default Drill press; how to collect steel shavings

Use a "Mag-Lift" It's a magnet in an AL can with a release handle.

I own a drill press and a shop vac.

I would like to somehow make a nice way to vacuum off the metal
shavings right away as I drill stuff, They fly away everywhere and that is
disgusting.

Does anyone know of some nice way to do that?Can I buy some flexible
arm that could be attached to ceiling joists and be adjustable and
hold stuff like vacuum cleaner hose?

Any thoughts?
