@@GC-rf2st I would think the side load on the bearing would be a bigger concern. They were not designed for it as much as for an axial load. If the motor is a concern like on a cheap drill press just use a lower speed belt setting.

#2: My Bosch drill press came with a fence very similar to this. A pair of them is no match for a decent vise though. If they are not clamped together, you risk pulling the workpiece upwards when releasing the handle, ruining whatever you are working on and possibly the drill bit as well. Always make sure that whatever you are working on is secured to the table. Safety first ladies and gents!

@WHJeffB 3 жыл бұрын

Some really good and creative ideas there... A few things to keep in mind though. Drill chucks and drill press spindle bearings are not designed to take side (cross axial) loads. The drum sander attachment is a very creative idea, and it clearly works, but I wouldn't use your drill press in that configuration exclusively as it'll greatly shorten the life of your spindle bearings. This is especially true of the inexpensive (cheap) bench top drill presses out there. The double drill chuck idea is fantastic... As a few others have commented, clamp a short length of steel rod in both chucks before tightening down the drill chuck on the drill press table. This will align the table chuck to the spindle chuck much more accurately, allowing you to drill concentric holes more accurately. Again... Some really creative ideas here, just keep the limitations of the machine in mind.

@muskokamike127 3 жыл бұрын

I've used mine for years with drum sanding bits attached to it. I haven't noticed any issues with the bearings wearing out and losing accuracy. You are correct however, the bearings aren't designed for lateral loads. If you think sanding is bad, I know a metal worker who couldn't afford a mill so he used his drill press. He bought a cheap chinese slide table and mounted it and used it for a couple of years until he saved enough for a mill.

@danc2234 3 жыл бұрын

Putting a bearing at the bottom and using the drum closest to that bearing takes a LOT of stress off the drill. I doubt very much it's even feeling any sideways pressure from that setup. I had something similar before I got a spindle sander. The only beef I have with it is I firmly believe dedicated tools is the way to go if you have enough room. Needing to set it up and take it down because I use the drill press for so many other things takes too much time for me. I bought that spindle sander years ago and I *still* think "this is so much nicer than setting up and taking down that drill press thing." But I should also say I gave the drill press spindle sander to another woodworker who then used it to death and built another one because he's short on room and put a planer where the spindle sander would have gone. So, there's that.

@muskokamike127 3 жыл бұрын

@@danc2234 The pressure would depend on what part of the spindle or drum you're sanding against. If you're using the top third, it would be more on the drill. If you're using the bottom, it'd be more on the bearing. It's not only space, it's $$. The cheapest spindle sander where I live go for $400.00. That's vs maybe what, $10 for this setup?

@danc2234 3 жыл бұрын

@@muskokamike127 Correct. There would be slightly more pressure as you went up, but the bottom bearing would still exert force against the push and no matter where the pressure is on the drum, the bearing would always make the force lines parallel with the shaft and not at an angle which would place enormous pressure on the shaft, bearings, and housing. I'm sorry spindle sanders are so expensive where you are. Harbor Freight's got em for 150. If that's too much, then yes of course the time it takes to set up and put away would be less important than spending the money.

@MassholeMachinist 3 жыл бұрын

When using a chuck on the work table, i'd recommend holding onto a pin with both chucks when tightening the table chuck to ensure concentricity between them.

@WHJeffB 3 жыл бұрын

Exactly... A short length of steel rod would be enough and provided the drill press spindle is relatively perpendicular to the table, you'd be centered/concentric within 0.005" or so from drill chuck to drill chuck. It's a clever idea... Even though I've been machining parts on mills and lathes for 30 odd years, I'm embarrassed to say that I've never thought of this myself! I've always used rotary tables or some means of holding a collet holder in a vise or a fixture mounted to the milling table. Learn something new and helpful every day!

This press has worked like a charm for my projects kzfaq.infoUgkxajoEbapTfqWaadnqb04h6U576yxXp-FE . I didn't even secure it to my table top, mainly due to the fact that I was using a 15 lbs drill vise. It's not flimsy at all as to what others have claimed it to be. Make sure the locking nuts and levers are secured and there won't be any issues with light pressure and patience. I was able to drill through aluminum, plastic, and steel (steel took a while) with no problems at all. Yeah it took a little longer than a regular drill press, but I don't have the space OR the money for one.The instruction manual was worthless, but luckily assembling the press was intuitive. However, the manual would be good for ordering replacement parts if needed. There is a nice breakdown of the parts that are included in the kit. Before ordering, make sure it is compatible with your unit, it is clearly stated what models the press is compatible with.This was an excellent purchase for $40!!

One of the best (in my opinion) and easiest upgrades you can do to these cheaper lightweight drill presses is to stick a small bottle jack under the front of it's table. Whenever you raise or lower the table just adjust the jack to snug up against the bottom of the table again. It takes all that flex out of it when you're putting a bit of force into drilling something, and it keeps the hole from going a few degrees off vertical.

I didn't get to look at it only because it's buried in the shop and I can't get to it until brother clears out space in the shop.
