Hi, I'm a instrument maker and sometimes do other woodworking projects. You can also check out my website www.paoson.com

Intro: Drill Press Stand

Hi, I recorded this short video about how it is made and I am gonna show you its main features. I'll start disassembling it so you can see inside.

Photo2- This is the adjustable guide that I can block using two carriage bolts to avoid it from turning when tighten the knobs.

Photo3- Removing this screw we can see how this four bolts are holding the drill press to the base, made of MDF.

Photo4- The table is made with an HPL panel, also known as Trespa. It is a compact board made of phenolic resins and wood fibers, it is so strong and durable.
Although, you can use plywood instead.

Step 1: Testing
I am gonna make some tests to show you how it works.

Photo1- First thin I have to do is adjust the relative height and then the drill depth. With the bit touching the piece, reset the knob to 0.

Photo2- Select the desired depth, 10mm in my case.

Photo3- And lock it.

Photo4- Adjust the guide and make the drill.

Step 2:
Photo5- I am gonna make now a deeper drill using two clamps to hold the piece to the guide. It is so useful to make large drills safely.

Photo6- Finally, I have also adapted it to use as sanding station with this sanding drums. This way I can easily sand curve parts.

Photo7- And also use it as thickness planner.

Photo8- I'm finishing making the plans and I will let a link here, so you can download them for free.
