mobility, and
accuracy from
these three
useful add-ons.
Making a drill press more useful
is one of the bigger shop chal-
lenges. And when you have to
move the drill press, it can be
like wrestling a monster. Another
problem is the small table on most
drill presses isn’t really designed
for woodworking.
A solution for each of these
problems is shown at right. First,
a cabinet with full-extension
drawers keeps all those accesso-
ries at hand. A mobile base makes
moving the drill press a breeze.
And best of all, the large table
makes the drill press ideal for
woodworking tasks.

Base
Adding a mobile base to a drill
press can make it easier to relocate
the tool or simply clean under-
neath. This mobile base has several
worthwhile features besides being
easy to build.
First, the low center of gravity
keeps the drill press stable and
less likely to tip. The large roll-
ers make it easy to move around
the shop, though you’ll still want
to keep the top-heavy drill press
under control as you move it.
Finally, the levelers lock the drill { Stability. Moving a top-heavy drill press can be a chore. This

pretty similar to the mobile base

The details of the construc-

Side Assemblies. In order to
drill the holes for the steel axles eas-
ily and more accurately, I worked
on the side assemblies next. This
involves cutting the sides to size
and rabbeting the top edge for
attaching the base.
To make the wheel blocking, I
used a hole saw to make the cut-
out that surrounds the wheels.
With that done, you can cut the
wheel blocking (Fig-
ure 3). After the glue dries, head to
the router table to round over the
edges with a 1⁄2" radius, as shown
in Figures 3 and 3a.
Glue this sub-assembly to the
sides then drill the axle holes.
The last piece to cut is the front.
It’s rabbeted along the top and
ends to join with the top of the
base and sides.
After assembling the base, you
can install the wheels with steel
pins epoxied in place.

An auxiliary table and an adjust-
able fence are the two best
improvements you can make to a
“bare bones” drill press. I thought
the combo shown above was a
perfect complement to the mobile
base and storage cabinet. The table
shown here has been in use for a
lot of years in my shop and is one
of my favorites.
Let’s start with the table. It’s
much larger than the metal drill
press table it’s attached to. So it
Table & Fence
offers plenty of support when
working with long pieces.
The table also lays the ground-
work for an adjustable fence. To
allow positioning of the fence
quickly and accurately, it slides
along two T-shaped slots in the
table. And a pair of flange bolts
and knobs lock it in place.
Table
The table is made up of two lay-
ers. For rigidity, there’s a layer of
drill press
3⁄ "-thick plywood on the bottom.
4
And a top layer of 1⁄4" hardboard cre-
ates a smooth, durable worksurface.
There’s also another advantage
to this double-layered assembly.
The top layer has a removable
insert, as shown in Figure 8. When
this insert gets chewed up with use,
simply slide it in or out to expose a
fresh drilling surface. Or replace it
with a new insert.
Base. I started on the table by
making the plywood base (Figure
8). To form the wide portion of

8 the T-slots, you’ll need to cut two

Note: It’s best to cut oversize top 2!/2

pieces and trim them flush later.
The insert is captured in a
dovetail-shaped opening in the top
of the table. This opening is formed
by cutting a bevel on the inside
edge of the top pieces, as shown
in Figure 8b on the previous page.
To prevent the insert from binding,
the beveled edges of the top pieces
need to be parallel to each other. A
simple solution is to use a spacer
between them when gluing on the
pair of top pieces.
After trimming the edges flush,
you can complete the second half
of the T-slots. This is just a matter
of cutting dadoes in the top pieces
(Figure 8a, page 7).
Now all that’s left is to cut an
insert to fit the opening in the
table. To do this, you’ll need to
bevel both edges of the insert.
While you’re at it, it’s a good idea
to make several extra inserts so
you’ll have a few spares.
FENCE
After attaching the drill press table
with bolts, the next step is to add
the fence. The thing I like best
EE
(2!/2" x 30" - !/4" Hdbd.)
FENCE
(2!/2" x 30" - 1!/2" Ply.)
about this fence is you can adjust
it without having to coax first one
end and then the other. The reason
has to do with a narrow slot in each
end of the fence. These slots form
openings for the flange bolts that
guide the fence.
Why not just drill holes for
the bolts? After all, it would be
quicker. The only problem is if
you don’t move both ends of the
fence the same amount when
making an adjustment, the bolts
would jam in the holes and cause
the fence to bind. But the slots
provide clearance for the bolts.
So even if both ends of the fence
aren’t perfectly aligned, it still
slides nice and smooth.
Fence Pieces. To make the fence,
start by cutting the two plywood
fence pieces, as illustrated in Fig-
ure 9. The slot for the flange bolts

is formed by first cutting a pair
of shallow dadoes in each piece,
then assembling these so the
dadoes align and form a slot for
the bolt. The margin photo shows
how to do this using a waxed key.
After this assembly dries, you can
add the hardboard face.
Notch. Before installing the
fence, I cut a semicircular notch in
the top edge. The details are shown
in Figure 9. This notch provides
clearance for the chuck when using
shorter drill bits. I used a Forst-
ner bit to drill the notch and then
sanded it smooth.
