I like the idea in your waste table. Easy to construct and replacements are a breeze too. Can even slide it to different positions as it gets chewed up.
Thanks so much uhadonejob. I think its a lot easier than a lot of other ones I've seen out there that have the circular wasteboard. I don't think I'd want to create a bunch of circular cutouts to replace. Thanks so much for watching!
That's awesome Todd! Depending on how strong of a hold you want on your table, Just continue to add more magnets. I may add a couple more to mine, I'm going to use it for a while though and see how it works out. Thanks for watching!
Great question k9kayaks. I've actually got another build coming in the near future for my current drill press. I found quite a few nice hold downs from powertec (check them out on amazon). Lots of good alternatives. Thanks so much for watching!
Very functional, clean, and simple table attachment! I recently bought a 1951 Craftsman King Seeley 100 series drill press that is in very good shape. I was planning to build a table for it with all the bells and whistles. Now you have me thinking of keeping it simple. 🤔
Ahh... that's so kind of you to ask. I asked my wife about your comment ask I've been just fine, and she said its because of the new lights I got they are SUPER bright and they wash everything out and make me look pale! I need to add more overhead lighting so that I can rely less on the movable lights, I hate them, they are so hard to move around for every shot!
Looking at the shape of things from 6:13 onwards, you could have just added some pieces to the “lip” to create a pocket that lets you slide the table on and off like a drawer - even more secure than magnets.
That is an excellent idea mm9773! That probably would have been an even better solution. I think I had it in my head I wanted to use magnets for this project for some reason, But your idea is great, thanks for sharing!
@@FlynndoggWoodwork The slots in your cast iron table would also allow you to create some kind of latch underneath, so you could lock it in, but still remove it easily. We might end up swapping ideas, because instead of a drill press, I use a solid drill stand - the cast iron table is also the base, so I can’t slide anything underneath: magnets might be the best solution.
@@mm9773 Oh nice! You know that is a great idea for a solid drill stand. I've got one of those too. This would be an excellent way to stablilize it and give the stand a wider base for stability! Great idea!
That's a great question. This build doesn't incorporate any clamping. I've actually since gotten a new drill press so I'm getting ready to build a new drill press table that will have t-tracks. Thanks for watchign bushwacker!
I don't have a center-scale ruler, but I use a trick that a friend showed me. I take a measurement from each side and then split the difference between them.
I bought a WEN variable speed drill press and used your table ideas as a starting point. I recycled my old Ridgid table saw as a moveable base since Ridgid gave me a new saw. I used old table wings as a mounting place for the drill dress, put some shelves inside the base, mounted magnetic bars to hold drill bits on one face. I used recycled kitchen sink cutouts for laminate surfaces. I did your magnets on the table to hold it to small table, plus a couple of knobs into threaded inserts for more stability. I was going to send photos but see a way to attach files.
OMG Ken that is so cool. I love the fact that you used all of parts from other projects! so cool. I would love to see it, Not sure if there is a way to post the pictures. Let me do some research and see what I find out. I'm still kind of new to this youtube thing as well, so there probably is a way. So happy to hear about your new drill press, that's really exciting!
@@kenerickson4923 that’s a true shop project! Love it. I’m hoping to do a lot of that when I redo my shop. You know what, if you want to send me an email with a picture I can post on the community page. Just go to the about tab on my channel and there is a tab where you can get my email address
Hi Bryan, nice Vid mate. I have just one small question tho'. If the table is accidently leant on, does it lift up or do the magnets prevent this? Cheers. Bernie SW Wales UK 😎 👍
Great question. That is where you really have to dial in those side support bars. Mine were snug enough to prevent that but you've got to be careful! Great question and thanks for watching MrBernie!
You know, they are convenient, that is for sure, are they better. I wouldn't say that. kind of a luxury item. Plus I find I don't have enough of them if I'm going to solely rely on them, and I don't necessarily want to have 30 of them! Thanks for watching Paul!
"Bandy" style clamps are handy for adding edge banding. But, before you buy them, look at videos about making your own with cheap clamps and bicycle inner tubes. I made 12 of them in an afternoon and around $15. I'm still using them after a few years and several hundred feet of edge banding. I didn't use glue, clamps, zip-ties, etc., just friction fit the tube onto the Harbor Freight spring clamps. Good luck.
Well, you didn't drop the name, but we did pushups anyway ('cause we know you wanted to). I'll be ready for the beach soon. This was another excellent video and we like your table; but, we love the Ryobi drill press.
In other videos, I've seen folks cut an offset circular hole for the replaceable insert. This lets them spin and flip over the inserted disk to find undamaged surface area.
Love this idea Rich! Thanks for sharing this. I've actually got a new drill press now, and I will think about incorporating that into the table when I build one for it!
Awesome job! I made one for my little drill press and made the fence to tall 🤦🏻 lol. I will redo it but I will use the inspiration of Flynndogg for the next 👌 Keep up the great work!
Oh cool! A tall fence is better than a short one! I had about a 3 inch fence on my last one, and realized that every time I wanted to lower the table the crank would hit the fence and the table, so I had to remove the entire table to raise or lower the bed... what a pain! Thanks for watching!
amazing build. I planned on building one, but when I bought the wen drill press I noticed they had a table as well. It was too good to pass up. It was just under 12x24, has an adjustable fence, stop block, t track, replaceable 0 clearance insert, and a couple clamps all for under 50 bucks. I honestly don't think I could have built one that nice for that price.
Oh that is awesome, sounds like a great setup! How do you like your Wen drill press table? That's one that I've been looking at! Thanks for watching Nathan!
@Flynndogg Woodwork so far, I'm very impressed with every wen product I've tried. I have the drill press w/ table, the oscillating belt/spindle sander, and the bandsaw. I'm about to buy their track saw to try out. It's way cheaper than the dewalt one, which is what most of my tools are.
@@n.talbert That's awesome. I've heard such good things about wen. I think the only Wen thing I have right now is a biscuit joiner. I was impressed with it, and it does the job! Thanks or sharing!
I do too! I only used screws in this project, because I let a buddy borrow my pin nailer for some trim work. The one time I needed my pin nailer it wasn't in the shop! I have it back now :) Thanks for watching Ken!
1) roughen one side of the magnet so the CA sticks (probably better with epoxy) 2) Be sure the placement of the magnet isn't where the slide holes are on the table. 3) if you're going to take the time to center the waste board, probably a good idea to make tracing of the cast iron table square to the table extension. 4) I would put the retaining pieces on all 4 sides, then you don't even need the magnets. 5). probably better off with a cam level than this thing just sitting on the table, with or without magnets.
Love these suggestions Larrybud. Excellent points and excellent ideas. Thank you so much for sharing these. You sound like you've been doing this for a while. Love hearing from more experienced woodworkers like this. I really appreciate this comment!
I was hoping for a magnetic personality dad joke... but it was probably much better without it. Great build. I think the edge banding lifted the project and made it a more polished table in the end.
Nice work! Probably the easiest drill press table build I've seen. I'm guessing you're not worried about drilling all the way through to the metal table, right?
That's an excellent point. To answer your question, I've got the table set up so that it is centered directly over the hole in the center. Probably need to be careful when using larger forstner bits! thanks for the comment, I'll need to be careful!
@@FlynndoggWoodwork I guess that's what the sacrificial part of the table is for. Also, if you move the metal table around, it'll just need to be re-centered, which is easy enough.
@@Ted_James Very true! Knowing me I blaze through the sacrificial part and straight into the metal because I didn't align the metal part of the table correctly! :)
...and who says boring videos cannot be exciting!...nice idea Brian.. Excellent.. A
