A printed drill stand - the concept and initial prints

Shortly after printing out the first parts, it became clear that I was already missing the convenience of a mill for drilling truly vertical holes. One solution was to put the printer to good use and make one.

Hello John,
Sorry I have been on the missing list, I am back now... The drill stand is an interesting project and I will make sure to tune in for the next part...
Take care.

Very interesting, I was surprised just how fast the printer can move.
Impressed by the faultless surface finish, and those spherical bearings.

Hi, Colin. Yes, the speed surprised me too! I'm having an email exchange with Bambulab at the moment regarding a discrepancy in the pricing of their 0.2mm nozzle hot end, but once that's settled, I'll order one and see if it improves the quality of the spherical bearings.
