  • In this video we review 5 woodworking tips for your drill press.
    The Drill Press is often and after-thought tool, but once you get one you can't imagine living without, but it's the one tool where accessories can really make a difference in your drilling, like drill press vice, sanding drums, a set of forstner bits, brad tipped drill bits, twist bit drill bits and so on and to make them all quicker and easier to use, I have adapted my drill press area more convenient to use them these drills.

    I simply love the guy. I think he's one of the most honest woodworkers (ie not commercially oriented) on YT. Straight and forward tips and I've learned a lot from him. Please keep them coming, Colin, good work there. PS: the plate tip was a WOW moment for me.

    Colin, you have the most incredible ideas for drill press guys, like me. As a matter of fact, I just came in from my laundry/wood shop after using the drill press. I just ran back out and put your magnet and pie-plate trick to work. Tomorrow I'll dig out my large, right-angle "squares" and matching clamps and keep them nearby. Still looking for a good machinist's vise. Looking forward to catching up on your other videos. Thanks a million.

    I have a Delta table model drill press inherited from my father in law. It was built in the 1950's in Milwaukee and has a single handle to raise and lower the spinning tool.
    They knew back then that a single handle was sufficient.

  • @danmoreton1788
    @danmoreton1788 Před 6 lety +1

    Your hack for the drill key is a good idea. I solved the problem in a different way.. I have a ratchet drill key attached to a three foot fine chain,( so it never walks away!). It always sits on the side of the bench. After I tighten the drill chuck, I immediately set the ratchet to the off position so it is ready to remove the drill bit when I am finished.
    thanks for the video!

    Great tips. Thanks for sharing.
    I have a small magnetic dish on top of the drill press. There I keep my drill chuck and the screws for the vice. The vice itself I leave on the moveable platform or at the foot of the
    drill press. That dust dish will come in very handy.

    Thanks for that, some really good tips on using a drill press. The last is not my cup of tea, prefer the broom to the risk of putting my drill bits through a pie plate, but I learned something new today, so it is all good.

  • @dougg9186
    @dougg9186 Před 6 lety +2

    Some great tips here! I plug my drill press into a foot switch to turn it off and on with my foot. Then should the drill jam i can easily turn it off and free up the drill without letting go of the vise or piece i"m drilling. For very little money it make the drill press much safer! Thanks for your great tips.

  • @marbleman52
    @marbleman52 Před 6 lety +1

    Those were good ideas, Colin...thanks. I was changing blades on my table saw one day and the bolt slipped out of my hand and seemingly disappeared into the twilight zone. I finally found it and I immediately sprayed it orange ( it's what I had on hand...fluorescent orange or yellow would be even brighter ), and now if I drop it, I can quickly find it. I need to do it to my drill chuck too 'cause I've been known to lay it on my work table while I drill something and have it get hidden behind a piece of wood or something and it takes a few seconds to see it. And yes on wheels..!!

    If your pies are as big as would fit on that plate, it explains why you have some extra padding around your middle! All in good fun! Love your channel and really do appreciate your drill press tips. Intend to incorporate several in my shop.
