    Homemade DC for DP

    A while ago someone, I think Sam C. posted a shop made DC to fit on a DP. It was articulated and clamped on the DP table I think. Can anyone help me locate the post that also had neat pictures. I want to make one to use with my new DC system. Thanks in advance.

      thanks Dick, I guess I could have fudged around and come up with something, but this looks great and will save lots of drawing & eraser time.

        There are a cuople of examples out there. Loring (Lchein) made one and, of course, Rod has one.

          I'd post the links for you as both Rod and I made and posted same but
          the forum search function returns no matches for the terms DP, DC, arm
          becaue they are too short and ended up with no terms.
          I know those are the temrs I used in the article title.

            Here is the link I bookmarked: http://www.bt3central.com/showthread...ht=drill+kirby of Loring's. Very nice job! (Found with "drill" and "kirby")

              What a great artistic creation...

              Thank you for your contribution. I obviously really enjoyed your apparatus and I really was very impressed. I even went to your URL to see if there were any pics of your workshop...

              I also checked out the link to Kirby's & Loring's & Scorpio's creations - they don't use wooden knobs and a red nozzle! No artistry! [I am actually chuckling - they are all outstanding efforts]

                DC for DP

                Thanks to everyone who posted to my ?. Now I have enough info to hit the shop and make one. I orginally tried just clamping the end of the hose to the edge of the DP table, worked but not to handily. A lot of stuff escaped from the front end of the drill bits; so this should work like "sliced bread".
