hello again. today i'll make an angle drill press visethat will allow me to drill and mill holes at an angle. this is the 3d model you'll find on the plans. as you can see it's a simple, easy-to-builddesign. by removing these four screws it can alsobe used without its tilting functionality in order to drill straight holes. right now you can see me drill a hole on anedge at a 45 degree angle. it will also be useful for milling on my 3drouter. i've designed a fast clamping system withadjustable depth.
let's take a look at how i built it. first, we cut all the pieces according tothe cutting list. we make a rebate with the 3d router. now i'm preparing the piece that will slidealong the rebate i just made. this piece must fit in tightly, itshould also be able to slide easily. i'll sand this side to prevent friction whensliding it. i'll machine these pieces to place the threadedinsert. first i'll screw in a couple of screws sothat the pieces won't move when pressuring them with the clamps due to the viscosityof the glue.
using an angle grinder, i'll make a littlerebate on this threaded rod and machine a washer to insert in said rebate. although it has to fit tightly on the rebate,it should be able to rotate once it's in we assemble all the components as shown inthe video. here i will also use glue and screws, resultingin an easier assembly and more resistant final product. i'll give it a try with the drill. this will make the movements of the wholevise smoother. now i will machine the handle, made with apiece of maple wood. this hole must be one millimeter smaller thanthe threaded rod we will use.
i apply a couple of coats of spray varnish. and now i glue the handle with cyanoacrylate. i'll put the vise to the test by machiningthese two pieces. looks like it's running smoothly! i fix them in their position with screws, and then i screw in these hinges that willprovide a rotation axis. now i'll machine these two pieces that willallow me to lock the vise at the desired tilt angle. i'll test the rotation before screwing themin, adjustments if necessary. i'll machine the knobs like i did in a previousvideo.
and now i'll make sure the vise can reach45 degrees. if not, we'll go over this groove again. i'll make a couple extra grooves on my 3drouter to use this vise. and it's all done. i hope you enjoyed it and see you in my nextvideo!
