Bought a drill press vise several weeks back. Unfortunately, the mounting points on the vise and on my drill table really limited its application.
I decided to fabricate a sliding and rotating table mount that could be removed from the drill press if I needed the press for other applications.
I cobbled it together from scraps around my house. I repurposed the end of a dumbell for the central pivot attachment. The remaining parts used were right angle and 1/2" round steel. Pay no mind to my sloppy welds. I realized half way through the first weld that I forgot to turn the gas on!

What's wrong........you don't like the metal that you're drilling on to spin out your hand and beat you to death???
