I tried to turn my cheapo drill press into a milling machine a few months ago. Ended up with a very sad drill press and spent thousands on "proper" machine tools which I have no real idea how to use. Now I'm addicted to buying all of the things that I didn't know I needed to run my mills and lathes. It's worse than crack cocaine boys. Heed my warning and stay off the slippery slope.

I worked with a 90yo machinist years ago and he was able to make his drill press work as a reasonably accurate mill by building a ring with a set of three bearings that surrounded the chuck to give it extra lateral support - like a spindle support rest for wood lathe work. The plate was supported by a bar that had an adjustable mount on the side of the drill press.

My fav Gunsmith uses one of his best/ oldest drill presses in a pinch, (for simple / quick tasks), whenever the main milling machines are busy. Thank you for another Great video & God Bless!🙏🇺🇸

Here's why I really love this channel. There are some fields where the "experts" seem to want to make the field seem as inaccessible as possible. People who want you to think that they're doing magic with electronics design, for example. But, it isn't magic. And you can totally just screw around with it and make cool stuff. A lot of guys look at machining like it's this crazy holy sacred fucking "do not breathe on those tools wrong" "can't do it unless your beard is this grey and your suspenders are this wide" thing, but it isn't. Basically: if old uncle dr professor bumblefuck over here can take a $12 aluminum (wat) chinese xy table, and have a good time with it, then anybody else can too. AVE: taking one for the team and just setting the bar so goddamn low that you can't even trip over it on your way to harbor freight.

I did this exact thing 3 years ago with reasonably good “success”. I went ahead and drilled the quill for a small drawbar and was able to use MT2 end mill holders. It left a lot to be desired but I was able to use it with some success. I’m happy to say I have a Bridgeport now and the drill press is in the wood shop doing what it should have been doing all along.

Remove the Jacobs from the Morse and plunge the Morse down onto the drill bit and ream and you will know it is centered because it has machined itself. Use 2 extended length bits of smaller diameter and keep plunging the smaller one right up through the Morse and the quill. Then remove the Morse, install the larger extended length bit and plunge down to re-drill the quill out to a larger size that will accommodate a long bolt, tap the top of the Morse for that bolt's threads, and now you have a draw bar. Now replace the bearings with tapers and install pointed set screws just above the upper bearing so that when extended the points ramp against the upper edge of the upper bearing's outer race and hold the bearings in oppositional tension against the shaft. This will really help with run-out, but you are not done yet, you need to stabilize the Quill sleeve inside the head frame which you do by tapping 3 holes in the frame at the muzzle and the top, and install bolts with set nuts in each hole with a small pellet of Teflon or UHMW (or Delrin or whatever) as a sliding surface against the Quill sleeve, and you can now finely adjust and true out the quill sleeve within the frame. Replace the drive belt with a Harbor Freight segmented drive belt so it won't slip against a load. You need a coolant sprayer so put a Cat litter box under the table with an aquarium pump and run some tubing up to the head and down a length of coil flex tubing and cap the tubing with a reamed out irrigation dripper, fill the litter box with a couple inches of coolant and adjust the flex tubing to hold the dripper above whatever you are cutting. Now you have a baby Bridgeport for about $300, and it's a quite capable little mill for your investment. A very handy thing to have I can assure you. You can also make a nice little lathe out of a drill press mounted horizontally, but that is another post...

If you get a carbide bit spinning fast enough, they can mill aluminum with minimal effort. I chucked 2 flute carbide end mills into a Dremel just so I can remove some materials quickly (part was too big to fit into mill, and it was a part of the mill, meaning I need that part in it to mill anything at all!) Forget about precision here... general woodworking tolerance is about the best you can get here.

I am back on my drill press to light duty milling machine project. Just purchased a cast iron milling table for it on ebay. It cost $138 and weighs 66 pounds which is more than the 16 pounds? that the aluminum ones weigh. Will post a vid of it when it is done. The mass of the cast iron should help eliminate chatter. wont flex like the aluminum ones Some people overwork mill/drills and call them crap. They are less rigid... which means you take smaller cuts and not try to hog it out in just one pass. Takes longer with smaller cuts but it prevents vibrating or flexing the machine. Take your time and let the cutter do its job and not force it.

lmfao Love the reaction to turning on the press with the new taper installed. Just a flat out "Holy Fuck" at the sight of the wobble. Although it is the Jacobs he is using if a person knows the limitations of the head then it could be made to work for a very long time doing extremely light passes. However you cannot expect any type of accuracy with something like that but it sure beats the poor man's mill (angle grinder). This is at the very least a step up from that and would suit most (mill for fun) people at home. And if for some reason the bearing blows out then replace it with a bearing designed to take side loads better and do like he is planning on and get a collet to hold the end mills. A very cheap solution for someone who can't afford to buy a mill but owns a drill press and needs to make a relatively straight cut. And I have seen folks cut side rails on a 1911 frame with a dremel mounted to wood and 3 cut off wheels. At least something like this would provide a bit more accuracy and end up with much better rail cuts.

you can mill on a lathe you can't lathe on a mill. OK small parts that the dimensions or finish doesn't matter maybe.... I not only know it's possible but I have milled lots of things on my lathe.

As a guy that builds & races hobby-grade radio controlled offroad trucks, I've always wondered how possible this would be. A rig like this would be the cat's ass for making little parts out of stuff like polycarbonate, graphite, nylon, even aluminum if I needed it to. Thanks large for making this vidjayo, I might actually go out & start pricing out components for myself now :)

Yea the school metal shop heirarchy if you didn't mess up on the drill press you could eventually use the lathe (which was a boxford a lot like the one here) if you didn't mess up on the lathe you could eventually use the milling machine. BUT if you couldn't even use the drill press properly... WOODWORK

This is the kind of thing that I think about as to why wouldn't this idea work. Could probably attach two stepper motors to the XY table, but don't know how to interface between the desired outcome and the software to guide the stepper motors. But could probably use a Raspberry PI to step the motors the required number of steps to move the table the required distance. This vid does provide proof of concept. Thanks
