Drill press table and fence update
 

I received a couple of good suggestions for improvements to the fence
for my shop-built drill press table. I've put photos on a web page at
http://www.iedu.com/DeSoto/DP_Table.html for anyone interested.

I haven't yet taken time to add a T-track to the fence for stops and
vertical workpiece clamping - but that'll come soon.

Very nice. You've inspired me to make one of my own.

Very nice. My only concern, if using something short such as a countersink
will the handles clear the vertical guide. Warren

Good question. Sometimes not - my usual solution is to remove the
offending handle(s). I've thought of making a really low fence using a
1/8" x 2" x 24" section of aluminum flat stock; but haven't really
needed it (yet).

I had that issue w/ my fence. I ended up just make a cut out so they can
pass thru.
