Still using you previous table design for my Bosch PBD40. Does everything I need to and takes up little room in my 6x4m workshop. Love the Viking but really can't justify it. About to make a little vice to go on it mounted similarly.
When you were measuring at the beginning, you didn't mention if that was imperial or metric? How on earth can I replicate this build down to the milli-inch if I don't know those details?
They're getting there! Down here in the south, we experience something called "winter" which is when the warm goes away. It makes it tricky to be in the workshop sometimes!
Nice work again. I use some 20x20, 20x 40, 30 x 30 and 30 x 60 aluminium extrusions for the fence and they work brilliantly. They are connected to the t- track in the same as you have done, even down to the knurled 1/4-20 thumbnuts.
I try not to measure if I don't have to. I have a commercial table but don't really use it. Still using my Bosch PBD40, so far no problems with what I need to do. Scrap wood underneath for clean holes. And now I'll Wrack off 🤪
Also, I upgraded the drill press last year but haven't made a new table yet. You're right in that it isn't strictly needed, but I prefer it for the simple reason of, I don't like touching the cold cast iron so I want to feel smooth melamine under my fingers 😆
That sounds perfectly reasonable to me - cast iron at this time of year is uh, particularly unpleasant! Before even firing up the jointer the other day, I leant on the table to get some boards down and then had to go get a hot cup of tea to get feeling back in my fingers 🤣
I did, yes, a friend now has that. When we moved to the new house I splurged with the extra space we have in the workshop, and because of a few big-boring-projects coming up where the Bosch was showing some issues. I'm only now just starting on the first of those!
Love the new signoff. I say you make it permanent
“Sod off”, absolutely works for me. 😂👍
I hope hope it it drives the PCer’s nuts! 🤩
Another for “sod off” perfectly imperfect end to a perfectly mundane video.
"Sod off"... not a bad sign off, although I personally like "Jog on"

I liked the location of the t-track, perfection! :D
As you say a drill press table is a whole load of conveniences in one package. And a nice build.

I think I said I was going to build your Baby Bosch Drill Press Table 3 years ago.... I might need to get to that. 😅😅
I'm not mad, James, I'm just a bit disappointed. You don't even have "I don't have a tablesaw" as an excuse now!
Great now I have to go out and buy a drill press. 😂 great video
🤣 hashtag sod! Anyhoo, more importantly I like the tappers you’ll be making on the press

@@TheWoodKnight yeah cold does not sound good to me at all
Perfect sign off! 👌 😂❤

It's a very mundane project, I'm not going to take offense if people need more excitement like a piece of scrapwood to replace it 🤣

I didn't exactly size my drill press table, and now all my holes come out square... it's absolutely infuriating.
Think of the money you saved by your mistake - now you don't have to buy a mortiser! 😂
Did you get rid of the Bosch drill press?
I did, yes, a friend now has that. When we moved to the new house I splurged with the extra space we have in the workshop, and because of a few big-boring-projects coming up where the Bosch was showing some issues.

"Sod off" ? I'm confused. Is that a new way to say "touch grass" (get off youtube & and go outside) or "Get off my lawn!"?
I didn't realise it wasn't common outside UK/AU/NZ! "Sod off" is basically "go away"
@TheWoodKnight I mostly knew that (was mostly making a bad joke), but thanks for the certain explanation. Love the channel!
