Drill Table

I've been following fellow blogger Steve (Arwen's meandering) as he constructs an outboard motor stand with interest and slight embarrassment. Steve did in depth research and some fairly meticulous planning which resulted in a really nice and practical stand.


By contrast I needed to make a table for newly acquired bench drill and with only a couple of hours to spare threw together a table from some old scraps. It seems to be robust (time will tell) and all the legs are pretty much the same length, plus using the new drill was a dream - for some reason I seem to be unable to drill a straight hole using a hand held drill.

Different strokes, I do admire Steve's approach, it's just not in my character :O)

  1. Very useful is the drill press, aka the vertical lathe.
    First time I’ve seen a machine wearing the hearing protection though.

  2. I should have bought one of these decades ago. Several times lately I have taken drilling jobs to mates places to use their drill press because the accuracy has been so important. As you say Max it is impossible to drill keeping the horizontal and vertical planes precisely at the correct angles. I am going to get me one of these!

    I was told by my doctor that there's no possible cure for it but it can be suppressed with the use of medication!! I felt depressed & sad. I started taking my medication. I felt frustrated, so I tried to seek help online when I came across this website (https://chiefdrluckyherbaltherapy.wordpress.com/) of a doctor called Chief Dr Lucky.  Also I saw a lot of testimonials about him on how he uses natural herbal medicine to cure HIV AIDS and numerous Infections & different kinds of disease as well. So I contacted him and told him my problems after a brief consultation with him. He Prepared and  sent me the herbal medicine and I took it as he instructed me, Then he called me 3weeks after to go and have a check-up!! It brought out testing negative, I felt calm a bit, and the doctors day for more clarity I will have to come back after 1week of which I did and tested negative for the second time !! I am so wow and grateful to this doctor whose medicine has NO SIDE EFFECT, there's no special diet when taking the medicine. He also have cure for 
    +HERPES 
    +CANCER
    +HEPATITIS
    +HIV/AIDS
