Hang in There, Kogasa-san 3304
Well, I think of it as educational costs! (^^;)
I was planning the needed parts one after another while making this thing, so I didn't know from the start how much of what I would need.
I've been using the completed drill press this whole time, and it hasn't been the least bit shaky, so I'm pretty much satisfied. I also made sure to have space to put in a box to catch the shavings! It's light, so it's very portable, which is great.
I wanted the drill press I spotted in the last strip, but being what it is, it's fricking heavy. It's apparently convenient for drilling big holes in lumber, but I don't think I'll be using it like that, so I didn't buy it. (^^;)
