I am in the middle of a project that involves drilling lots of precisely placed holes. The simple table was the first piece of shop equipment I ever made several years ago. I was never all that concerned about a smple thing like a drill press . No sharp blades or cutters, right. Well, after seeing what Bill Grumbine went through , I decided to pay it a little more respect. I took a little time out of the project to make a new DP table. Right now I have a bench top model but this should work when I eventually get a floor model. Should make things easier and safer.
The table is made of some scrap MDF and banded with scrap walnut. Top is scrapformica I got for a couple of bucks. Now I remember why I only had a small piece of MDF...I must have forgotten to THROW IT AWAY! I HATE MDF iT WILL TAKE ME LONGER TO CLEAN UP THE MESS THAN IT DID TO MAKE THE TABLE!
