My latest project involves adding functionality to my CNC router. 
This style of router is very messy and chips get everywhere, so without an enclosure a dust boot is a must. This is magnified if you are machining metal because you really don't want those metal chips everywhere, especially around the electronics.
There are many different versions of dust boots out there, but none that would fit my needs, so I designed a new one. The main thing I needed was a spot for my mist spray so that I could use it with metal. I did borrow heavily from existing designs. No need to reinvent the wheel.
I have an 80mm spindle and I'm using a Fein vac for dust collection. Attached are some of the pictures of the design, and you can see it in 3D athttps://a360.co/33DJtg8
Magnets hold the bottom half in place. 
I'll have a video of it cutting shortly, although you won't be able to see much with the boot in place.
