- How to build a drill press table and fence DIY. Upgrade your drill press or Pillar Drill with this simple drill press table with sliding dovetail sacrificial insert. The bevels cut in the top surface hold the sacrificial insert solidly in place, and acts as a backer reducing tear out.
The pivoting fence is an easy to use solution for repetitive drilling tasks. I’m making this for a small Wen 8 inch drill press. But this is a pretty common and effective design, while still being a simple easy build. There are far more elaborate designs out there. But, this will definitely make
any drill press easier to use.

I typed in “simple drill press table”. went through 20 vids before I found yours. by far the best of the lot. I will be building it exactly as you did. thank you !
Wow! Thanks so much and Thanks for commenting. 😊
Very good video. Just enough information without too many tedious unnecessary details.
Thank you 🍻 😊
Yes, poifect! Thanks I like it and so simple. My suggestion to you is a long bolt handle for locking the table height bolt. Cheers Russell
Thanks, yes it’s a bit tough operating the table locking handle. Never thought about changing it. 😊
This the best vid I have seen on making a drill press table. I have the same drill press, I don't use it often but this table will make it much better to use. Love the music, and I really love not having to listen to someone talking about everything under the sun. Thank so much, you have a new subscriber.
Thanks so much! I really appreciate that. 😊
OMG I just set up my WEN drill press yesterday. This is so freakin' timely. I am drilling 48 7/16 holes, top and bottom, on stiles for a "rebar" dog crate.. This will be perfect for getting the holes aligned so I'm not fighting to install the rebar. Thank You
That’s Great You’re welcome, dog crate sounds great I’ve considered making something similar for my own guys. Thanks for Watching! 😊
Perfect just what I was looking for in terms of small table top drill press table.
Thank you and Thanks for Watching 😊
Now that’s classy
Thank you 😊
I like the simplicity of your design and and the ease of making it. Question: why did you use a Les for your sacrificial piece compared to just a using square edging?
Thank you
Probably good either way, but bevelling it really locks it in position. It’s good to make a few the first time. Thanks for Watching 😊
Wow dude. Your channel is so underrated. You should have way more views than you do.
Thanks, appreciate it! Still plugging along 😊
@@DIYFotoWorks keep it up. This is great stuff.
@@dayv2005 🙂
Very clear presentation, straight to the point with very good pictures.
If you do not mind, may I ask you where you got the blue jaws installed on your bench?
Thanks so much! The Vise is an Eclipse Quick Release I have a complete video on installing it. Link czcams.com/video/7bHrJH0Qr4c/video.html
I got it from Amazon. Eclipse Quick Release Woodworking Vise: amzn.to/3OTZbc5. Thanks for Watching!
@@DIYFotoWorks Thank you for your prompt and complete answer
@@pindapoy1596 you’re welcome
I have the same model drill press. How did you clear the height adjust crank? A saw the height adj locking lever at the beginning of the video, but not the crank on the other side.
Hi, The crank still functions on mine. It will hit the bottom of the table at its highest point, so I just take 1/2 or 1/4 turns to adjust the lever. Hope this helps…Thanks for watching
@@DIYFotoWorks OK, now I see that mine is slightly different. Mine has the same locking lever as yours, but it also has a toothed rack on the other side of the column, and a crank to adjust height. I'll see if mine will let me just raise and lower without turning the crank. Great video! I just subscribed.
@@jakewayrewa5201 Ahh I see, maybe you have the 10 inch, Thanks for subscribing 😊
