I'll be doing the project and posting shorter progress videos as I work on it. After it's done, I'll put all of those short videos together into a full build video and post that on my main channel.
The catch is that the shorter video may have more detail, since I need to keep the full build video fairly short. So if you want to see it all in easy to digest bite size pieces weeks before it goes live on my main channel, you can get that for as little as $1 per month.

"Key decisions" , (arrested development) 👍💯
Nice to see you so happy John
I thought the idea of using your vice to hold the table was genius. That video actually broke me out of a funk where ive had no interest in woodworking or tackling home repair projects in months. Dont know what it was but thanks for giving me some motivation!
John, have I told you lately how brilliant you are? Man, you are one of the most creative creators on YT. I can't wait to watch the entire build of this mechanism you put together on your drillpress. Having to crank up the table with my DIY table in the way is something I too hate doing. I have to contort my body just to get at it, lol. I just bought a chefs cutting board in black that is18" x 24", and 1-1/2" thick for only $14 US, that I think I may use as the top of the new table I will build. Your ideas always intrigue me and I enjoy watching your ideas become reality. Way to go John. Another hit out of the park!!
That drill press lift is cool beyond words.
With the intelligence of a genius your ability to creat is remarkable. I wonder if you could run for President, I know you could figure away to fix our country.
Love it. I like the automated table movement.
This was my favorite project of yours. I think it's pure genius. One thing tho. You gotta do something about the vise handles banging against the underside of the table.
those handles will only bang on that table on the rare occasions when he takes the table off. Not worth the effort at this time is my guess.
I agree with all the others who commented on the need for handwheels versus the handles. Or you could turn them into ships wheels with a bunch of spokes. You may want to somehow key the table insert so it won't spin. Make the cut out oval or square. Also put a second calibration on the in and out feature to compensate for the table.
I'm intrigued by the "stupid river".
Your one of the most interesting guy on CZcams. Your brain never stops thinking of ways to invent projects.
Nice corbel detail
That chair actuator finally has a new home.
That drill press table is awesome! This is definitely something I want to build. I think the only change would be to replace the "stick" handle on the front for a wheel type handle that won't hit the bottom of the table. I think I could still get good clamp pressure with a wheel/knob vs. the stick-handle you have. Only way to know is to try it! Thanks for posting this series. I really appreciate your videos. Audio and video quality are very good, and the information is always top grade.
Nice work on the drill press table. I can't wait for the Island build but I will admit, I hate resin pours in furniture.
I just built my electric trike and the battery mount that came in the kit is insanely strong. its just a block of aluminum with a hole drilled in it the exact diameter of the trike frame. Then they split it in two. I was worried it was going to rotate with the heavy battery being cantilevered off to one side of that bracket/clamp but holly cow is that thing strong. I couldn't get it to rotate no mater how hard I tried. I think something like that to form fit the post would help you out a lot with that play you were seeing.
Hahahaha you perfectly expressed how much you hated cranking down the table.
Hi John, if I may suggest raising the table above the frame enough to be able to clear the handles on the vise. Great job again
It doesn't need to do that. It would reduce capacity, make it less solid and the handles work fine as they are. And the table will be on there 99% of the time, anyway.
It would probably lose some stability, due to extra leverage, but it might be strong enough.
Love the build John, and great to see that gear vise getting some use! I'm contemplating a design for a momentary, hold-down device on a swing arm for my floor press. Although I own plenty of clamps (including the ubiquitous "quick" mount vise grip thing), they're all a pain to set up and inevitably get in the way of the next operation.
I love that electric lift. I usually go to all sorts of silly lengths to avoid moving my regular manual table unless absolutely necessary but with yours I could see myself raising and lowering it just for fun 😄
Pretty cool setup. I’d be tickled to have just a hand crank for all three of my drill presses lol. Moving my two vintage industrial press’s tables SUCKS.
Wait! So that "other guy" was right after all when he said it wouldn't be long before you were making more changes to it? 😂
I do love the audio sketches at the end of these
Loved the build. Maybe a future upgrade a digital depth gauge?
Love this format. Love the drill press mods. Love the real-time "fix/enhancements"
Now that the table is indexed, you could also put a second scale on the "stop block" part, left and right (either side of the center), for the exact same purpose of the "depth" scale.
John, the only suggestion I could think of to give you is to replace the vise's handles for wheels that don't hit the table. Other than that, it's perfection! 😊
Anyway, stay safe there with your family! 🖖😊
Very creative
Terrific work on that auto-lift drill press table John! That thing is just really awesome! 👍👍👏👏
You are a genius!
Very clever stuff!!
Great ideas!
That drill press is total madness! 😂
Would love to hear how you shot and edited the build video. Great acting both you and “Johnny Boy”
Haha, I was wondering if that actuator was the one from the recliner. I remember you saying you had some ideas for it ages ago.
Possible upgrade: wheel handle on center gear to avoid handle slamming against bottom platform?
I don't know if it's a good idea, but you could get the two handles of the vice to be parallel to each other, so that when you turn one, the other does the same mouvement. Maybe it's just me haha
Maybe convert the vise handles to a wheel crank. Not a big deal as you won't be taking it on and off that often but I can see you doing that for the typical, and appreciated, efficiency.
Why don't drill press manufacturers do this? I realize it cost more for them and more for us, but I'm sure there are those who would pay for such a great feature.
Your Alter Ego was right after all..
I should have listened :)
Where are the cup holders?
I'm so good at all of this now, I only need one hand to do all of the work. The other holds the beer.
Brilliant. Are you going to display how to create electronic vertical movement or is it double secret requiring a decoder ring? (lol)
nice ...... have you seen Marius Hornberger's drill press UpGrades?.... Thank You Kindly for the Vids John.
peace
John might a smaller calibrated table be of any use on that?
Hey John why not get a keyless chuck to improve ease of use?
Why not allow the table side to side especially if you index it incrementally? Like shelf pins
I don't need it to do that, but you can on yours. I do shelf pins with a router and jig.
Did you consider replacing the vice lever arms with knurled knobs so the levers wouldn't hit the bottom of the table? I realize that it's a minor thing, but that's gotta be annoying.
Nifty project overall.
Doing that would solve a problem that isn't really a problem (the table will be on there 99% of the time) and greatly reduce how much torque I could apply using the vise.
Will the new kitchen island have the same tile work as the counter/backsplash?
Never mind. You showed drawings.
Which John came up with the upgrades?
Whats that now
Using this vise seems so clumsy
I liked the changes in style to the video. I’d rather get less videos and get that quality of content.
Just run a bead of PCA or adhesive calk down the pipe on both sides and bond the plywood to the pipe. It will never move again.😉
