DIY - Rolling / mobile Drill Press Cabinet

[@paramediclee1]

13 ply plywood!! That's the best plywood I've seen for shop projects. Very nice!!

[@bobcarolegardner]

Funny, I was just out in my garage sketching out an under drill press cart and just looked at your KZbin video, and basically the exact same configuration. You have some good details that were helpful regarding the construction of the drawers which I will “borrow”. Thanks for the video.

[@dennissmith5837]

Very nice drill press cabinet! I like it and I think I’m going to copy it. I however will not use those kinda knobs, I used similar knobs on a shop cabinet and caught my pants on one and my shop apron one one. Bent the screws both times and I had to change to different handle after fixing the wood by filling the hole and the damaged area around the knobs. Nice video, a little more narrative would have been good.

[@MrJKellerLewis]

This is the first video of yours I've seen. I love the content! Great shop project.

[@joserevuelta7566]

I can not understand how you only have 10,000 subscribers . Suscribed .10.001 .

[@StuffIMade]

Jose Revuelta I know right ;) Not even at 10,000 yet it rounds it up.

[@joserevuelta7566]

The first 10000 are the most difficult. Your quiet. You continue with quality and success will come suddenly .

[@sapphodesigns2377]

I love this..exactly what ive been looking for.

[@billystray7007]

Wow such craftsmanship

[@GuysShop]

Great project Geoff! Still getting a lot of use out of those corner clamps. I may have to make a set of those for myself someday....

[@StuffIMade]

GuysWoodshop thanks! If you did make a set, they would have to be book matched with half blind dovetails ;) (top quality)

[@johnheubi1613]

Nice work! I’m thinking about making something similar but I want to incorporate a rolling base in mine.

[@StuffIMade]

John Heubi the cabinet is on castors. Do you mean a rolling base for the pillar drill? Good luck!

[@johnheubi1613]

Stuff I Made yes I want the drill press and the cabinet to move together.

[@austinstubblefield9907]

I needed this!

[@xylonguitars]

that's superb! well done, and thank you for sharing!

[@cedaroakfarm8596]

Do you have plans available in PDF format? Great project and I need to do it,

[@StuffIMade]

No sorry

[@rickchichester9327]

Brilliant

[@simonralston4545]

That jig that clamps the right angle side panels, did you make that yourself? Great vid btw!

[@StuffIMade]

Yep theres a video on it in my video list :)

[@Dennis-kj9qx]

I went every ware looking for that clamp ! I should of looked HERE first ! LOL Now on to building the jig.. Building the box now , as always with my own spin on it.

[@clutions]

Any chance you have a set of plans?

[@StuffIMade]

Sorry I just made it up as I went along.

[@stevewalker7822]

Nice job.

[@crztrn1]

Nice job. Las Vegas Nevada U.S.A,

[@stevecourtney3625]

What height is your cabinet? Would you suggest changing it if you were to build it again?

[@StuffIMade]

Not sure on height. But it wheels out so nope am happy with the height

[@bldrmtnman]

Really like your music and your build, you gonna offer any plans for your build?

[@StuffIMade]

Thanks

[@jkbaer3086]

Is the drill press attached to the cabinet so it moves with it?

[@StuffIMade]

Judy Baer nope it slots in around it to use otherwise dead space... but can wheel out of the way if I need to lower the drill press table. It’s better for me this way and more sturdy to use the drill press.

[@rjsaunders92]

Was that a FastCap countersink bit you're using there? I know there are good ones out there, but I'm yet to use one!

[@StuffIMade]

Ryan Saunders nope it is a festool one. It is great! Don't have FastCap products in the uk unfortunately.

[@BuiltbyBill1]

I like it! But I have a bench top drill press, don't think that would work with it. Have a great day. Bill

[@StuffIMade]

Built by Bill true ! ;)

[@stewartchurch3927]

Where do you source your plywood in the UK? Great video by the way.

[@StuffIMade]

Stewart Church thanks. I get birch plywood form Avon Ply in bristol.

[@boristhebilder7553]

Loved it.

[@davidgagnon2849]

Festool watch?

[@StuffIMade]

Lol

[@CPUDOCTHE1]

I think you are going to regret the single screw pulls. I put knobs on the drawers in the cabinets in the bathrooms when I built my house. Cords and pockets get caught on them quite frequently. I will not use single screw pulls any more EVER.

[@StuffIMade]

I have had them on several workshop cabinets for some time now, and haven't had any issues as yet. I guess they are slightly set back under the drill press table in this instance so perhaps less of an issue. I have t-bar handles in our kitchen and am forever catching the oven gloves on them so i know what you are talking about :)

[@floydwills1633]

Seems like overkill for one drill bit, but hey, its your shop. ; ) Great video, keep it up!

[@StuffIMade]

Floyd Wills, 6 drawers - 6 drill bits;)

[@joserevuelta7566]

HaHaha

[@richardraesr3482]

Nice

[@markandrews70]

What counter sink bit do you use

[@StuffIMade]

My Version festool, it's by far the best I be used!

[@alexthepunk]

Do you have dimensions for the drawers?

[@StuffIMade]

Ultimate Maker I don't have plans, When I get time I could roughly measure it and let you know, but it is built with this custom drill table and this particular drill press in mind so I am not sure how useful that would be.

[@alexthepunk]

Stuff I Made thank you for the reply. I was more interested in how tall it is. It fits your bits and trays perfectly.

[@simezra]

perfect!

[@mkueffler]

do you have a link to you pre-drill tool?

[@StuffIMade]

mkueffler its a festool centric

[@StuffIMade]

mkueffler sorry it is a festool centrotec countersink with depth stop

[@mkueffler]

ok, I was wondering there for a minute with the google outcomes lol, thanks

[@jimryan3960]

@@StuffIMade Wow, this is why I won't buy Festool. Over $100 for a tool that should cost, and does cost, less then $20. I just can't support that.

[@StuffIMade]

@@jimryan3960 Cost £56.49 in the UK right now. I think when I bought it it was £45. When i got this there were not any alternatives i could find and it has be a delight to use. The Armano is £43.81 today and good quality. Other cheaper versions are £20 to £30, but not the same quality. But yes, you do pay more just for the Festool name. I make my decision on how much time it will save me. I do like this tool though :)

[@JustAnotherDayToday]

So why support if you don’t actually show the plans or walkthrough how is made? Well I guess entertainment value.

[@StuffIMade]

Aruga exactly, it’s not a how too video, it’s just me sharing my builds and ideas so it may inspire other people’s ideas. It should not be difficult to work out sizes for your specific needs. Good luck!

[@lazyh-online4839]

@@StuffIMade thanks for sharing, once I get it put together a little empty on entire drawer both in my hand held to a box and in my workbench that I can then use to store my other tools currently strewn across my workspace.
