home-made dremel "drill press"

2007-04-15 by DJ Delorie

My big drill press has too much runout for the tiny drill bits, and my
hand isn't steady enough to drill manually with the dremel.  So, I
made something simple that would just hold the dremel steady so I
didn't snap any more drill bits.  I drilled a couple of 13 mil holes
with it, seems to do the job (although there's some runout even still,
partly due to the bits vibrating).
