I made a simple pickup horn for my DeWalt saw that converts from crosscut to rip cut pickup. Be advised that you need to allow a certain amount of air flow to carry away particulates, so my rip hose panel only closes to within an inch of full seal (2nd image). Flanging the front adds a bit of efficiency also, and provides the track for the rip adapter.

For table saw, shark guard is pretty good. http://thesharkguard.com/
For handheld sander, the best solution is Festool sander with Festool dust extractor. It is pricey, but top quality and a pleasure to use, and your health is the most important thing. There are lots of threads discussing about Festool sander in Festool Owner Group.
Another simple RAS hood. I crosscut only.
