Wobbly drill press stand
(lemmy.world)
I built a stand for my (new to me) drill press! Everything is nice and square, and I'm really proud of the result. And then I put it on my not so flat garage floor... And the locking casters aren't all that effective anymore. It's also pretty wobbly. Any tips for placing movable tool stations on wonky floors? Smoothing the floor sounds like too much work!
Looks great. But. Does anyone feel the grain going vertical on the second drawer make it stand out? You may need to put down something to level your floor or use adjustable castors to "level" the drawers.
Sure, but for shop furniture I don't care. Can always paint it if you want more consistency.
Haha yes the grain direction isn't matched. This was made from 1 sheet + spare ply I had lying around. If I had enough, I might have made the effort. The sheet cut app I was using said I used something like 95% of the material. It was a tight fit.
