This press has worked like a charm for my projects kzread.infoUgkxajoEbapTfqWaadnqb04h6U576yxXp-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!!

2 things: - you can see how dedicated he is with his infomercial that he's running the drill press while doing a skit. - he got a tan.

Another plus of the store bought fence is that you can turn it flat to use as a low profile fence for smaller stock where the chuck would hit the fence.

Very funny intro it was a good laugh. Need that these days.

I imagine r/wheredidthesodago would enjoy it.

Loved the awkward "WHAT DO I DO WITH MY HANDS?!" intro. LOL!

Wow the dust collection on that table saw is terrible.

Opening alone earned a like and comment! Good creativity Travis!

Man this channel has come a long way! I remember when you had less than 30k subs. You make really great content. Keep up the good work.

I was watching some of his old videos and I think it was his first workbench video that he said he had something like 25 subs.

dude that intro was hilarious 😂

Again we’ll done ! Looks great!

For dust collection 3D print a telescoping set of tubes with an opening at/ in the bottom piece.

Nice build Travis. Always enjoy watching your videos for inspiration. Your plans are very detailed and easy to follow too. Keep them coming.

Holy cow, that Laguna table saw was spewing some serious dust. Love your approach to these videos. The easy switch from woodworking to metalworking for a drill press is key. Glad you underscore that.

this is exactly what I want to make! thanks for combining all those ideas together.

Love the Park City shirt... oh the video was good too! Thanks for sharing!

Love it. I watched all of it even though I have very little interest in getting a drill press right now. Over the years I have watched all of you videos, it has been awesome to see you grow and improve your videos and your skills. Keep up the good work! You clearly love your “side hustle “

This gave me an idea for a cast iron table using an old table saw top.

Nice upgrades. A keyless chuck would be the icing on the cake.

Cool build! One of the things I'd like to see is how to quickly and accurately keep the table perpendicular to the drill itself. My table always rotates along the post as I raise/lower it.

If you never have need to shift the table left and right based on the kind of work you do with the drill press, the solution is simple: drill 3/16" hole in the top and the bottom of the toothed rack on the vertical pillar and install a screw into the pillar. That keeps the center of the table perfectly aligned with the quill's axis as you raise or lower the table.

Haven’t even watched it yet and I’m so excited, finally!!! Now can you build custom organization in your shop cabinets... I need ideas like drop down shelves etc. 🤞🏼

I really wish all of you would stop ordering online. Your the reason all of our stores are closing. Get off your behind and go do your shopping and keep these stores open. Nice job on the table.

Well done, Travis !

Travis, this is the best video yet. Thanks for sharing. Love the intro.

Great job! Yet another easy build to help in the shop. Thanks!

Another good project! Thx for sharing once again!!

Reminds of those earlier 90’s infomercials. Like the look. Keeps them coming!

Nailed it! Great design and looks like it will serve you well.

great build! I would love to see more b-roll of the final project in use. that goes for your other project too! love your stuff and keep it up

9:44 - Most relatable woodworking face. Also, I thought sawdust in the children's hair was a parenting goal. . .

I think you and Travis got it wrong, it's not saw dust, it's MAN Glitter!

Good video Travis. Fun to watch and a good design.

Very good design. Not too bulky or obtuse. I would add one last thing... Extendable side wings, I like Shop Smith's that slide out on square aluminum bars. Sometimes you need that extra distance when drilling out waste for table legs. But even hinged extensions could work also.

Awesome as always! We’ll done..

Great job, you always do such pro work!

The intro is wonderful.

Great ideas, been looking for this type of project!

Great project. Great work.

I dig it. Jonathan Katz Moses makes probably the best stop block around. Figured since you used his table as a base, pimping his stop block is a fair compromise. 😁🤟

I would have liked for you to have explained and shown how the dust collection works.

Great video. I liked everything up to the point of paint. I must say, you have far more confidence in your plans then I do. Doing all the cuts for the entire project in advance takes guts and confidence you may not want to modify it.

Tele Shop Nation for the win!

Good stuff. I don't even have a floor-standing drill press. I just like your videos. (Love the Park City shirt too.)

Great build! Gonna make one for my smaller drilllpress

Great design

Awesome build. And you’re way better than the Sham Wow guy ever dreamed of being! If KZread doesn’t work out, you could have a great future in infomercials!

Great project and nicely executed 👍🏼

I like Matthias Wandel's table. Yours is also awesome.

Lol I like how you didn't use your little stop block you did for the miter saw table. Ive been wanting to add that to my table for awhile now

great job. I will be building one for myself soon.

Love this! Now I just need the drill press 😁.

Well thought out!

Great video. Thus top is on my to do list! Thx for sharing

I don't buy many plans; I bought these. Looks fantastic.

Cool build!

That intro was hilarious

Very nice job well done

You made my day with the dustbae

Nice infomercial lead in.......and, nice drill press table.

Cool project.

You have inspired me to rework my shop

That intro was SO funny :)

Great video!

Building one for my shopsmith. Love how you made it thin, if deeper, drawers become full,, heavy, unorganized Great idea on magnets and tape storage I will add foam to one drawer, as I use the router, pin router in mine. Trying to figure out my pin, on the top of table. I came up with a circular removable insert in my drawing. Rotate vacuum hole around work, pin is centered anchored to base below. Am I missing something. Need mine light, as I will be installing on my aluminum table, when standing up, revoing otherwise. Part of the Shopsmith system, I am developing for building guitars mostly. Thanks, great content.

And here I was thinking this morning, "Hmmm...I haven't seen a ShopNation video in a while"

Great build!! Super good intro...

Sounds like you’re on the right track

Awesome bro

Hmmm, maybe I'll buy a $40 table so I can build a really sweet one, LOL, very tempting but maybe just but the newer Wen, and mod it to get the DC. Also love the hi-lo fence!

I found multiple mistakes in the directions I paid for. It didn't keep me from building it correctly, but it required extra time to figure out what the directions should have said. I am happy with final results.

Awesome video

Nice work bro. Just moved and I can’t even think about building until I get all the stuff in storage!

I'd add some thumb screws to the 4 corners for hot swaping those metal/wood interchangable tops. Also, maybe just me but I like to keep my drill/forstner bits nearby, so I'd add a mount for those (maybe to the stand itself so they stay with the press instead of being removable).

I'd go for speed knobs as they're more comfortable to use, but the idea is the same, definitely.

I like your table with the dust collection. I'm thinking of making one, too, but with a bunch of holes surrounding the zero clearance plate. This will give the dust a place to go. I only have a bench version so I will have to carefully consider the drawers, but if they fit.....

Very Inspiring... Thank you, for an AWESOME Build!!! Chuck in Michigan

Great video

I like your table design an I'm considering some thing like for my bench top along with a roll cabinet. Rings workshop could be worth watching for drill dust collections.

I like adding powdered dye to my shellac to help color things

LOVE the shorts, truly shop greatness in it itself 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸 Love the drill press table as well. We definitely need one. And yes, I am dang tired of getting sawdust on my boys hair 😂😂

That intro was EPIC!! "Overly engineered", LMAO!!!

Great video.

great video thanks stay safe

Nice build. I have a small toolbox under my table for all my accessories.

Sweet

That's a great design - The dust collection would be nice, my drill press area is a real mess!

Great intro

that intro! Hahaha

Travis, this was the best dramatization I have ever seen🤣🤣

Next easy weekend project: zero clearance inserts for your table saw. Good work Travis.

Got me and the wife some Keto bro! Thanks!

You may want to invest in a light filtering blind for that window by the drill press for video lighting purposes. Added bonus, no one can see what you have in your garage.

I love all of your tips and ideas. Here's one for you: put a damp paper towel under your cutting board when cutting veggies and it won't slip around. Ha!

LOLOLOLOL!!! You are clearly the person who produces those “As Seen on TV” ads.

The one I built was from Wood Magazine, 3 decades ago!!! Holding up very well. Drill press table, a must have for any drill press owner! Typo in the pinned comment buddy!

You got a thumbs up before the intro was done.

I built one and I like it, but I paint my shop bright colors. Purple, red, yellow, it makes it a brighter cheerier place.

Looks cool. Not sure if it would work with a bench top drill press but ether way amazing and worth a try :)
