Clamping an unusual angle...
Clamping an unusual angle...
My benchtop drill press doesn't see much action anymore, but with the help of a bungee, comes in handy when I need to clamp an unusual angle while the glue dries!
Cheers!

Re: Clamping an unusual angle...
Surgical tubing stretched around unusual shapes makes a good clamp also. Love the bungee press, too.
Re: Clamping an unusual angle...
why the bungee? can't you apply enough pressure by just rising your table high enough untill it hits the chuck?

Glad someone asked this question! I usually use my lathe for this, which is why I'm considering buying another of the Rikons.Massis wrote:why the bungee? can't you apply enough pressure by just rising your table high enough untill it hits the chuck?
Re: Clamping an unusual angle...
This particular table does not crank up and down. It's either locked or unlocked, and when it is unlocked you raise and lower it by working it back and forth to try to coax it to move! In the absence of the crank, seems a bungee was a good way to keep positive pressure on the joint as it cures.Massis wrote:why the bungee? can't you apply enough pressure by just rising your table high enough untill it hits the chuck?

Re: Clamping an unusual angle...
Yeah, but I'd have to go out and buy some of that. I already have the drill press and bungee...AlfaDog wrote:Surgical tubing stretched around unusual shapes makes a good clamp also.

Re: Clamping an unusual angle...
I could just as well use the lathe, but that would tie it up for a while and I certainly would need to use it for something else. This drill press is rarely used, so I can spare it for clamping duty for a few hours if needed...wmolaw wrote:Glad someone asked this question!

The sliver of ebonite on the bottom will be the last thing to be done as I want to balance it to sit perfectly!

Walt, how do you go about facing an angle on your work pieces?

But it has a secret compartment that opens up to reveal a Gatling Gun...

Re: Clamping an unusual angle...
I flatten it to about where I want it by hand with a hard backed sanding disc, then fine tune it by dragging it across a piece of 220 laid flat on a smooth surface (I use a small piece of glass)...UberHuberMan wrote:Walt, how do you go about facing an angle on your work pieces?
