For a watering system you can use a empty wine box. They already have a bladder and adjustable valve to control water flow. Just add your hose and #12 solid copper wire to direct the hose and you are done. Of course the fun part is draining the wine out of the box!

Very creative. A tip: don't use two pliers to tighten the nuts as you will end up chewing up the nuts. Use wrenches. Yes, tape a length of at least 12 gauge copper wire to the watering tube before taping both to the drill. With the wire, you can direct the stream to exactly where you need it.

I have had the parts for a few months now, but it’s been too cold to work in my little shed/workshop. Well, I set it up yesterday for the first time. Works fantastic. Had issues with the drip system which is a KFC plastic to go drink bag (bout 1/2 gal), but it worked out. I used a disposable aluminum roasting pan for my catch system. Flexible,adjustable, and CHEAP. I went with the fully threaded rods, but as you said, they don’t turn as true. After reading the comments, I’ll be grinding the chucked end tomorrow. Love the videos and the information. Keep up the good work.

Dave -- it's easy to add more threads to a partially threaded bolt. Get a die from HF and cut the extra threads you'll need. Love the idea of the expandable wheel mounted in a drill horizontally! Another possible source of long bolts with custom washers (and rubber bushings) is a sway bar link kit for autos -- if you have a friend willing to let you open a few boxes on the shelf in an auto parts store --- you may find something that will have the right measurements. I once fixed a broken differential mount on my Triumph TR-6 with a sway bar link -- worked perfect.

Lapidary Dave, I am so happy to find your video. You have single handedly saved my marriage. I have been using all kinds of machinery for more years than I would like to remember. In the future, to keep all your fingers attached to your hands, please roll up your sleeves and secure them safely away from your moving parts. As far as laying your drillpress down. Make a 2x4 wood "L" frame on the Vertical side drill 2 half inch holes measuring from the holes on the base plate. I think the slots aer 1/2" so using some shorter 1/2" bolts, washers and nuts secure the drill press to the frame. Ensure that the frame is wide enough to prevent rolling. Now, you have a way to either stand, or lay flat your drillpress without ever having to remove it from your "L" frame. Hope this helps. Tee

When I started out I tried this seeing it on you tube. Problem was is my little drill press from harbor freight, the motor got seriously hot and nearly burned up. The capacitor blew out first and I was able to get another one and it works again. So for the cheapies out there like mine beware the motor getting hot spinning that weight. I ended up getting a potter wheel for $99 on ebay. I drilled a small hole in dead center, put a thin 1/2" round washer as the arbor and screwed down and the flat laps hold on very well! Perfect speed, not too fast, not too slow and I have now done about 130 nice pendants on it. Just also get a couple small 6mm hoses and get 2 nuts and bolts. Drill down thru the center of them so water passes though. Drill at the lowest points in the plastic pan. Its very simple and drain into a bucket after you put a little drip system on it. Remember to get some rubber washers onthe inside and outside of those two bolts so it doesn't drip. You can make a couple if needed from the rubber out of the inside of a plastic coke bottle. The entire thing cost me like $108.oo. Try to get aluminum bolts at about 6mm round to use so they don't rust out from water passing through them all the time. Cool thing is you can switch plate sizes if you get the 11" pottery wheel. With not having to have any backing plate. The wheel is your backing plate.

You should use correctly sized wrenches rather pliers as the pliers will mare the nuts. R.E.: Water collection. Turn the table 90 degrees out of the way and use blocks of wood to bring the collection pot to the required level. R.E.: Threading Bolts. Get a die with the proper threads and thread the bolts the distance you require.
@roberttyrrell22502 жыл бұрын
Just a note; if you don't thread the bolt thru the nylon, it defeats the purpose. I would imagine you could use a spent 8" saw blade as a master lap. Grind off sharps of fine tooth luann blade. A colapsable camping water container has a valve, better control of your drip. A larger chuck would allow you to use your other wheel. I have $65 HF press, I can change chucks.
