Built a bigger and better "Drill Press Table."

Nice looking table.

On the last picture I see a couple of aluminum “T” tracks behind the fence. Are they attached to the fence or the table?

Great looking table, keep up the good work!

Hello SethJChristian
Welcome to LJ’s

This is a nice drill press table
You can use your router and a 1/8’’ radius rounding over bit to round the angle
The MDF is sometimes cutting on the edges

Thanks for sharing

@ JesseTutt, the “T” tracks are attached to the fence as slides to keep the fence square when I move the fence up and down the table.

@ Diggerjacks, Thanks for the tips! I’ll have to look into that.

Nice table.
You may want to seal the MDF, to keep it from absorbing moisture. Rattle can poly would do that nicely.

BTW: Welcome to LJs, a great place to feed your Woodworking insanity!!!

Nice table.

-- Tim - I usally measure twice after I cut......then I know for sure that I cut it short.....

Very nice.
Check out the StumpyNubs drill press set-up, quite a contraption!

@ DIYaholic, I am debating if I want to seal the MDF or laminate the surface’s of the fence and table.

Question: What do the people of LJ recommend?

Another great project for the shop mate. How have you found working with a high fence. I built a DP table quite recently and found that having a high fence restricts the quill handle when working close to or on thin stock.

I can always adapt it of course but a little bit of a pain after the time I took to build it.

Good work, I’m sure it will make working on the DP a breeze

@ bluekingfisher, Thanks for the great comment and that’s a good question! I haven’t had a chance to use my new DP set up yet. What I am thinking is if worse comes to worse I’ll build one more fence that is perhaps a little shorter, maybe 1” tall rather than the 3” fence I currently have.

It looks good and should work well for you.

Could you use strips of wood instead of the metal bars you used for the tracks?
Nice, I might end up building one of these because My drill press is small. Needs one of these things.
