How to Cut Wooden Wheels with a Drill Press and Hole Saw

- In this video I go over making wooden wheels for toys using a drill press.
First I use a forstner bit to make an inset for the center then I cut out the wheel with a hole saw and finally finish the wheel and assemble it onto a toy.

This press has worked like a charm for my projects czcams.com/users/postUgkxajoEbapTfqWaadnqb04h6U576yxXp-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!!
Thank you for all your tips on making wheels all the best john.
Thank you. It is much easier when watching good videos like this one
FINALLY, found this video after looking at many many crap ones, thankyou just what i needed
Simple, the way I like it! Thanks!
Brilliant thank you i will definitely be using your method , its the best that I have seen so far fantastic 👍👏👏
really enjoyed the video.Thanks
Love the wheels , making a wooden 1934 chevy coupe my first wooden car hope its a good one all the best john
Thank you for the information, they look great with the decorative cuts but I liked the sanding better, I´m planing to make about 48 wheels next week, all at once just to have them around, last week I made 8 only and sanding was difficult and time consuming, so I´m very grateful.
Brilliant I do like that, i will try to make them just the same as you have done for my grandson he will love it thanks mate
Muy hermoso.
Dios les bendiga siempre
great video. you should hit the wheel with cottin rag while spinning in drill press it will shine them up and make smother than any sand paper. Just be careful not to get tangled. Maybe even apply wax while spinning. The wheels looked great anyway
Great info-TY!
Muy buen trabajo pero no dicen el grueso de la madera y también que sería bueno un traductor hay que hacer las cosas lo mejor que se pueda felicidades
Great job thank you
great video
good job
Really like your wooden work.
How many Nm or Watts should have driller to drill holes (about 40 mm or more) in wooden chip-boards 18mm deep?
perfect
great wheels, if you set your holesaw to just break out at the edge you will find that it clears the cuttings through the break, this should make the surface of yuor wheels smoother with less tendancy to burn as the teeth stay cleaner. also your holesaw will stay sharp longer.
+grampa toymaker Thanks for the tip. Next time I cut wheels I will try this out.
Nice explanations! What hole saw do you use?
👍
Do you buy the axle pegs or make them yourself. I love woodworking. But have never made any toys yet.
Bonjour très bien la vidéos je vais essayer de faire la même chose .Cordialement G.D. France
Ce sont bien faciles à faire..
.il y 5 ans... telles choses je n'avais jamais essayé à faire.....
cordialement de nouvelle-zélande
Beeswax and olive oil...now that sounds good..... I just use a 1:3 mixture of turps and boiled linseed oil....
I almost always make wheels out of 5--10mm thick plywood...nothing is childproof, especially wheels which can split across the grain if a toy is dropped sideways......
I need a drill press. NOW!
What brand are your hole saw bits? Thanks
Great video and explanations, thank-you! My only question is what type of drill press you use and what size? Do you have any brands that you reccommend? Thanks again.
I have an old Shopsmith that use as a drill press and disk sander. A few other uses too. I can drill into the top of a flagpole if needed! Check it out. Just don't use it as a table saw. An accident waiting to happen.
Greatly done!, if you like to woodwork this way roll up your sleeves and search for Woody Hyezmar’s book for a ton of projects, peace out!
Can you show me how to make a larger hole in a toy wheel that already has a hole. I used a jig with 4 bolts but after I drill the wheel the larger hole is not centred. any suggestions?
I'm not sure if it would work, but you could start by drilling a hole the size of the wheels outside diameter in a piece of scrap stock bolted to your drill press table. That would give you a centered location to start drilling from.
Buenísimo,, muchas gracias, una consulta de cual aceite se le pasa a las ruedas,, entiendo poco ingles,, gracias de nuevo 🙂
Hola Cris, revisa este enlace czcams.com/video/W-K-GTPJkw8/video.html
@@MrHleighton lo haré,,, Muchas gracias 🙂
Can you do a video on making the axle wheel pegs please
+tea bag I usually draw the line at making axel pegs and just purchase either dowels or pegs. craftparts.com is a good source for the pegs.
Ok. Thank you
i need to know more about centering drill doing the hole through the board, how i can do it without hitting the metal plate of table drill?
Place a sacrificial board underneath so that the bit will drill through this added board, and not the drill press table.
@@flyingsawdustjemtz9226 It's hard for me to understand why any presenter on CZcams would not have a sacrificial board. This guy must not use a drill press much. I would still drill from both sides to get a clean cut, but not because "so you don't drill into your table".
The presenter’s drill press table has a hole directly under the drill chuck/bit. Any drill bit smaller than that hole will go through the hole and not hit the metal table but it is a wise idea to always add a sacrificial board before drilling.
@@flyingsawdustjemtz9226 Yes, but the 3.25 hole saw he was using would have cut the top, unless he used a scrap board on top. My comment was that most, if not all drill press users understand this and use one.
Great vid-fyi its a good idea to clamp your wood on a drill press and wear gloves
At least secure a fence to the drill press table, and place the board you are cutting the wheels in against the fence. But I'd also use a clamp on the board.
Does anyone know what kind of wood is used to make or replace wooden wheels on antique furniture?
+David S- Sorry I don't know. But I would assume it is different for every piece of furniture depending on who made the piece and what woods were available.

Thank you just the same. : )
my friend how many rpm do you recomend in the drill to use this saw?
I had my drill press on the 3100 rpm setting, but I am not sure I would recommend that fast for every application.
@@Justbuildstuff Yes.... you don't want to overheat the teeth or cutting edges on hole saws and Forstner bits
i don't see how you did the hole though board ! how ?
Hole saws usually have a twist drill bit in the center. That bit pilots the hole saw and drills through the board.
i got it , thanks !!!
yo thanks for subbin to me bro
Just google woodprix and make some dust.
Nice!
You scare me when you place your fingers in the holes when you use that hole saw. What if it binds on you?
People take wheels for granted
Right, especially round wheels! If you have ever tried to cut a round wheel on a scroll saw, you will really appreciate cutting wheels with a hole saw.
How to make wooden wheels for wooden toys.
Woodglut is nice for that.
Did You make it with woodprix instructions?
Woodglut plans are amazing!
You can use woodprix, it has the best handbooks and ready instructions. You can learn much from them and make it yourself.
I checked a lot of handbooks with woodworking plans. Instructions from woodprix are the best I think.
I know Woodglut has the best woodworking plans.
