  • Pretty cool. When are you going to make me one? LOL.

    Seriously you should make some drawings and sell them to people. I'm sure there are a lot of guys who would like to make this tool.

  • I'm sure there are. But very few of them just happen to have that mill/drill table that I based my design on, so plans wouldn't be of much help.

  • I know your master of wood but wood is a limited resource in terms of it's properties

    some thing's you should do with steel/aluminum e.g that coupling

  • @vljenewein cut it with a fine kerf, rout it, glue it back together?

  • Very good !

  • Dud your the best! i wish I had your talent!

  • Are you a professional genius or only part time? You would have been a much better choice than the professor on Gilligans Island. Nice job!

  • ikea is nothing compared with him :)

  • you sir are a genius!

  • Excellent.  Now to figure out how to drill long deep holed from one end of a piece of wood to thee other, say 14" or 13.5 cm ... like an Armenian Duduk (which is made out of apricot wood.

  • @Matthiaswandel

    Really a very nice design, and yes the table is a big part of the design.

  • Thank you for posting this vid, i recently purchased a very old 50s horizontal boring machine that needs a lot of work but will be quite usable. Your video helped me appreciate the distinct advantages of using a horizontal boring machine and thinking beyond the drill press for everything. Very nice set ups. You are quite talented and "see" how to improvise and design tooling. I love to see videos like this on youtube. Great!
