 Demo drill/grinder stand
Awhile back I bought a Canady Otto #0 post vise off of rthibeau. I mounted it on a 4x4x1/8 wall piece of tubing welded to a semi brake drum to make it portable.I have used it at several demos. It catches peoples eyes. The other day at a flea market I picked up a Cole #7 manual drill that is for drilling large holes in about any position. I got it for 5 dollars because the guy thought it was missing some parts but it's all there. I mounted it to the opposite side of the post and then on the left hand side I added a mount for 2 old hand grinders I had squirreled away under the bench. Made a real nice manual drill/grinder stand. Just don't let it get over center when you move it!!! John

Very Cool idea, JWB. I was trying to figure a good way to mount my post drill using something similar to this. I was going to use heavy 2" black pipe and weld on a plate near the top, with holes to mount the drill. Now I have a visual to help with my design. All my tools have to be mobile, so I can move them around my limited-space shop. Thanks for the neat setup pics!! |
