Build A Better Woodworking Drill Press Table - Part 1 - The Table & Fence

👉 Drill Press Dust Collection Port DIY- https://bit.ly/DrillPressDustCollecti...

If you're looking to upgrade your drill press setup, this video is for you. In part one of this two-part series, I walk you through the process of building a custom drill press table designed for accuracy, durability, and functionality. This video covers the construction of the table itself, an adjustable fence, and an integrated dust collection system to keep your shop clean and your workflow efficient.

Whether you're a hobbyist or a pro, these upgrades will take your drill press to the next level. Stay tuned for part two, where we'll build a set of storage drawers with a hidden feature so the drill press doesn't lose any of it's drilling capacity for tall parts. I'll post the link for that here once it's completed.
