Drill-Press/Mortiser Stand
Like the mobile planer stand, next slide, Greg customized this stand for his drill press and hollow-chisel mortiser to ensure that his top-heavy benchtop tools would be stable, wherever he moved them. Each supply drawer faces the same direction as the tool above it, so it's easy for Greg to access whatever accessories he needs. For the base, Greg used the metal components of a Delta Planer Stand (from toolmarts.com, 800-735-8665) and shortened the legs to yield the proper overall working height. The unit moves easily on four 3" heavy-duty double-locking swivel casters from Woodcraft (800-225-1153, woodcraft.com).
