DIY Mobile Drill Press Stand || How To Build - Woodworking

** Plans: www.bevelishcreations.com/pla... **
Article 🡆 www.bevelishcreations.com
Hey guys, with nonstop builds over the past year, my shop has become a disaster zone. So I've decided to make 2019 the year of shop projects and shop organization! My first shop furniture this year is this mobile drill press stand with lots of storage. But what makes it unique is that it allows the drill press base to sit underneath the top, which helps to free up lots of work surface on top. It also has a pull out platform for writing, put smaller workpieces on, or whatever your heart wants.

BUY THESE PLANS if you want to build it. Great job on the build plans. Cant wait to start building this sucker. It looks awesome.

I like the concept of the hidden base for a bigger work surface. Retractable casters underneath would lend itself well to this project.

[@7Spicer7]

That vertical drawer is genius. Thanks for sharing!

[@johnjensen8560]

Very nice build! Just a suggestion. When I build something with full extension slides I like to plan ahead with a story pole marking the location of the slides on cabinet sides and drawer sides. Then I install the slides on the cabinet sides before assembly. John Jensen from British Columbia

Probably the best drill press stand I have come across. I would probably make the top that covers the base of the press drill removable and use a different type of castors with all functions combined but that would be it. Well done

[@BevelishCreations]

Thank you and great idea! How would you make the top removable? That was something that was on the back of my mind but didn’t give too much thought into how to do it at the time

I added a base on bottom with a lift Caster system inside, I don't like to have drawers that low to the floor. I made the cabinet larger and I like to have the top drawers I and a half inch so when I put a ruler or something in there I'm not digging down through things to find what I want.

[@netcomptech]

I very much like your drill press stand. I recently inherited a very nice drill press similar to yours and am looking at videos to find a suitable stand for it. So far your looks like a winner. There is one change I will make for the writing shelf. The shelf as compared to your will be upside down and will not have the interior supports. This way the writing table and pencil can be left in the shallow draw. This way the writing pad can be quickly viewed and then moved out of the way to use the drill.

[@BevelishCreations]

Good idea! And I’m glad you like it :)

[@tomsdreamshopworx]

Nice well built stand! Another workaround for your slide out shelf problem would’ve been just to reverse the vertical piece to the right side of the opening then you would’ve cleared the caster bolts that way. Who cares if the opening was on the other side it still works fine.

[@BevelishCreations]

Thanks!

[@waltherbert]

I like that you made a surface above the base. That’s not something I have seen elsewhere.

[@BevelishCreations]

Thanks!

[@monteporche5552]

Great work. A suggestion about the drawer fronts. Once you put them in place, put two wood screws through the holes for the handle. This will hold the drawer front in place. Take the drawer out, and put a couple of screws from the inside into the drawer front. Then you can remove the two from the front, drill the holes all the way through and install the handles.

[@BevelishCreations]

Great idea! Thanks!

[@Specter8608]

Came here from Instagram. Really liking the table. I had a bench top drill press but gave it to my brother in law because I acquired a floor drill press but honestly haven’t had the extra need for the floor model. Will probably be switching back and building this base or something similar. Earned a sub on both platforms. Great content...keep up the good work.

[@BevelishCreations]

Thank you so much!

[@Dennis-kj9qx]

I built a rolling stand similar to this and love it. I also was careful to build it to the table saw top height for extending. I use it also as a tool ready rolling cabinet and small work station. Also put magnet bars on the sides for quick access. Really wish I would of found this first ! The side cabinet is a great Idea ..Great work ! This is a fun build ! Keep the floor press and have room for both!

[@BevelishCreations]

Thank :)

[@robertw.1499]

Why are not more following you??????????????? Good stuff. Discovered you today and already looking forward to more 👍👍👍

[@BevelishCreations]

Thanks! I wonder why I don’t have more followers too lol

[@BedfordJoshua]

Definitely don't have to worry about that thing coming apart! It's built SOLID. My cheap self probably woulda used 3 screws per side (except to fix a warp if needed) and would have just glued smaller supports for the drill press instead of using that much plywood. Nice build!

[@BevelishCreations]

You’re absolutely right! Screwing in some 1x2 strips would definitely be strong enough to hold everything. I didn’t think of doing that until after I had started editing the video haha

[@BedfordJoshua]

@@BevelishCreations That's one good thing about rewatching all of your work I guess. You can see what you've done and what you wish you would have done.

[@BevelishCreations]

Yep! I normally realize how I should do things differently during the editing process. Like when I made the Harry Potter shelves, my process for cutting the crosslap joints are completely different between what’s shown in the video versus what I did for the ones I was commissioned to do

[@stuffsethmakes]

"Here i used some very expensive spacers" 😂😂. Great build, great video. I have the base of my drill press hidden under my miter station fence and the base is hidden by a fake drawer front, haha! (sneaky sneaky!). Keep up the great work! 👊🏻

[@BevelishCreations]

Thanks!

[@ZeroAme]

Only thing I would change is that top paper drawer. Instead of just making it a solid surface, I would make it a drawer with a lid that opens so you can put paper in it and still use it as a work surface. Maybe you didn't show it in the video but I was surprised you didn't actually secure the drill press to the stand with bolts or anything. Otherwise fantastic build as always.

[@BevelishCreations]

That’d be cool! And no I didn’t secure it. There’s really no need to, since it’s sandwiched between two panels so it can’t tip over

[@christofix]

Your comment on a video of chris salomone got my attention. That is why i came here to see what your channel is about. I love your way of video making and i will follow you from now on.

Really enjoyed this build! Do you have CAD drawings for your design, or the exterior dimensions by any chance? Would like to build one of these for our new makerspace.

Thanks! I was going to put out some plans for this but just didn’t have enough time. Maybe I’ll get the plans finished by end of the week and put a link in the description later. Anyway the drill press is 26” wide, 23” deep, and 35” tall

[@BevelishCreations]

Thanks

[@UNKN0WN_YT]

Very nice build. Looking to build something similar, but not as complex (will likely screw that up). I found it funny that you have quite a bit of expensive items and tools, but your drills (main tools in a shop) are Ryobi’s. Anyway, nice job.

[@BevelishCreations]

Haha I buy the tools that does the job I need, not based on brand

[@bigkremey]

Great build video Alex! Preciate the walk through and thought process behind each section of the cart.

[@BevelishCreations]

[@williambloomberg8760]

Alex - I bought your plan and am about to start building a drill press table similar to yours, but in the course of watching this video for the third or fourth time, I noticed and really liked the base you built for your Kreg K5 pocket hole jig. Do you have a drawing for this base and would you please post it on here or on your website? Thanks, Alex. You really have a gift for woodworking and for making it look easy. Please make more! - Bill

[@BevelishCreations]

Hi William, I made the jig using some scrap MDF I had laying around. It’s based off of Nick Ferry’s video. Search for Nick Ferry Pocket Hole Jig, I think you’ll find it

[@GoombahYah]

Yay, finally found your KZbin channel! Another great video! I like that you included your film gear as well as the tools & materials. :) Did you plan to finish it at all?

[@BevelishCreations]

Paul Mix hey thanks! It’s actually finished. I used shellac. I just didn’t film it because everything was done at different stages instead of at the end. It got kind of messy from a story telling point of view.

[@CEVisk]

@@BevelishCreations May I ask why you chose Shellac instead of Polycrylic? I've never used Shellac so just wondering. Thanks

[@BevelishCreations]

I just happened to have some shellac on hand. The stuff I use have wax in it, the wax actually helps me to keep glue or paint or epoxy from getting stuck on the surface. Not sure if poly would do the same

[@BevelishCreations]

Also, I forgot to add, Shellac has a lower working temperature and shorter wait time. Also two big reasons why I chose Shellac for this. It was 45deg when I was building this

[@TheNewbieWoodworker]

Dude, you've got some serious skills, both in woodworking, and in shooting and editing videos. (By the way, I'm Dan Thomas from the Powered Up course.) And holy crap, you have just about every tool I want. Did I count correctly that you have 10 Bessey clamps? Not to mention all the "green" tools, and that kickass SawStop table. Subscribed, and we need to talk. I want to know how you did some of those shots. 😄I'll hit you up on the forum.

Great video. What was that tool you used to draw the straight line parallel to the edge? It looked like a flexible ruler with holes for the pencil and a T square on the end that rolled. What is that called?

[@BevelishCreations]

Thanks! It’s an “Incra T-rule”

[@stevenroehrer9365]

Bevelish Creations- How are those table saw rollers working out for you? I've seen them before and think they'd be awesome to have.

[@BevelishCreations]

Really good! Especially for cutting wide pieces, they help to keep the piece pressed down to the table as well as pull them toward the fence. It’s great for preventing kickback

[@BevelishCreations]

Steven Roehrer I should add...they’re definitely a luxury, not a must. If you have the funds to get one, then yes get them. But they certainly won’t dramatically improve your process

[@stevenroehrer9365]

Thanks!

[@BevelishCreations]

Steven Roehrer no problem!

[@jtlong8383]

I have a question for you: it appears your main cabinet sides are not supported by the bottom panel; they are screwed into the sides of the bottom panel. Maybe your inside cabinet sides are bearing the load? Would be interested in your thinking about this.

[@BevelishCreations]

JT Long you’re right, the load is transferred to the sides and down into the feet of the cabinet. The bottom panel is floating above the floor and its main purpose is to act as a stretcher, not for holding the weight

[@jasoncoombs213]

Do you have plans available of this setup? Ingenious idea to hide the base and have extra top usage.

[@BevelishCreations]

What are the measurements of your drill press base? I just bought the plans 2 days ago so now I got to go buy a new drill press and some plywood 🤪

My base is about 11x18x1.75” thanks for the support :D

[@davidlediard3912]

I bought these plans and have a question, how did you fasten the drill press base?

[@BevelishCreations]

David Lediard I didn’t. Haven’t had any issues with it. If you want to fasten it, then drill the bolt holes before fastening the top panel on. I kept the clearance between the drill press plate and the top panel close enough that there’s no concern for tipping over

[@shantayprueeissen8914]

Anyways, I love your table and I am mostly to draw a lot of inspiration from it for my own!

[@williambloomberg8760]

Bevelvish - I already have some casters similar to the ones you used, but they do not come with the quick release plates. Only screws were provided. Can you tell me whether my Rockler casters will work with the quick release plates the you use in your build and provide a link to in your comments? - Bill

[@BevelishCreations]

William Bloomberg hey the ones in my comments are the Powertec ones. I have both the casters from Rockler as well as Powertec, I’m pretty positive that they are the exact same products, just branded differently. The Rockler casters should work well with the Powertec plates and vice versa

[@williambloomberg8760]

Bevelish Creations - So, playing sleuth, I searched Rockler’s site for these quick release plates and found them right away. Bought a set immediately! Unfortunately, I’m afraid you don’t get click credit for this purchase, but I promise to make it up to you later on. I’ve subscribed to your channel and clicked the bell as well, so I’ll be back for more. You have a smooth style and a very nice delivery. From a woodworking perspective, you should take another look at cabinet construction using lock joints for carcass construction. Quicker and stronger than butt joints and pocket screws, and saves the expense or all those screws. Just a suggestion. Very nice build with excellent organization and great English grammar for a woodworker. Go easy on the “rinse and repeat” metaphor, though. (kidding)

[@BevelishCreations]

William Bloomberg haha thanks! I’ll check out lock joints, thanks for the suggestion.

[@bmarcel7598]

Woodworking level = Asian!! Damn you really overbuild this, but it will last forever. Great job!

[@knottywoodvibes1393]

To be wood working for less or about 1yr, you have some of the most expensive wood working tools out there. You are the perfect example of "discouragement" to someone who might want to get into woodworking by showing them they need all the fancy top notch tools to start. No, ppl, you do not need a $2000+ saw, $1000+ festool domino, bessey clamps that are at least $40+/each, incra miter sled/gauge, festool tracksaw/miter saw and router.... The list goes on. I can only imagine you were "suckered" into these expensive tools as well when you were just starting out, more than likely by watching Chris from FourEyes waaaay too much.

[@BevelishCreations]

Hah nah I’m the “buy once cry once” type. I think it’s more of a waste of money to buy cheap, then upgrade later. Plus, why go cheap if I can spare the change

[@knottywoodvibes1393]

That makes sense and I can certainly appreciate that.

The most expensive tool is the cheap one you buy often.

[@kazykamakaze131]

I don't know of how others work here ,but for me it's rather ridiculous that you don't have proper drill bit storage at a DRILL PRESS. The primary reasons for a drill press cabinet is 1.to use as a stand for a drill press and 2. as storage for drill press accessories which are easily accessible, which you only did number 1. the rest will irk you having to sift through storage containers to find the right bits as you never added proper storage in the first place. Just a wasted opportunity in my opinion.

[@BevelishCreations]

Haha ok

[@biggusbestus551]

Seriously ? That is furniture not a drill press stand ...

[@michaell7877]

I love your stand. However; you confuse me on some of your explanations. I have found a lot of makers need to show and tell there explanations for some of us. The more video detail the better. Heck, I would contribute to those that explain in there videos in greater details. Kind of like The wood whisperer does. You made some explanations , like time stamp 2:00 I got all confused on that explanation, and more later on. You’re a good maker, if you want to grow more and more amature and intermediate wood workers, be a show’er and explainer...Need to show what you are explaining. TYVM..

Thanks for the suggestion, but Marc’s style isn’t the type of video I’m going for
