Description of the simplest homemade drilling machine
A homemade drilling machine from a drill does not need to have a complicated design and require a large financial cost. It is only necessary to understand the principle of the operation of such an element, and its manufacture will not seem so complicated. For example, imagine a vertical sturdy rack that is fixed to a wooden stand. On the rack there are two simple guides, along which the movement of the pad fixed on the bar is carried out.
The shoe is manufactured in such a way that a drill body can be attached to it. By this principle, in the 70's, the first homemade drilling machine from a hand drill was made.
Important! When making all the components of such a bed, it is necessary to check the dimensions of the material and blanks several times.
In order for the work on this bed to be as comfortable as possible, a vertical stand must be equipped with a strong spring, which will lift the drill after the end of the process.
Drill stand: what material is useful?
For the manufacture of this frame, some materials will be required, which will not be particularly difficult to locate. So, we will need:
- For the manufacture of the stand, a furniture plate with a thickness of at least 20 mm;
- Centimeter plywood and wooden beams 90x55 mm;
- Steel strip, the size of which is 250x40x2 mm;
- Screws and screws for fastening all elements of the machine.
After all the required materials have been prepared, you can start collecting the right tool, without which you can not make such a machine. This drilling machine from a drill can be made without the use of special tools. To make the frame, you only need a hacksaw, a ruler, a drill and a pencil.
Important! When preparing the frame elements, be extremely precise and careful not to have to redo all the work.
Procedure for making a self-made machine
So, the machine for fastening a drill is made in the following order:
- The main frame is machined, on which the whole machine will be fixed. To do this, you can use the work surface from the kitchen furniture. Prepare a vertical rack of centimeter plywood, fixing it with corners, cut from a thinner material.
- Assemble the metal rails on which the slider with the drill will move. The slider itself is made from a wooden block, which we prepared in advance.
- With a steel adjustable clamp, make a sturdy holder for the drill housing. Between the holder and the slider it is necessary to make special holes and supports for the spring, which will lift the slide.
- After the completion of the machine assembly, check its performance, which will correct minor errors and shortcomings.
Important! Before connecting the drill to the electrical network, it is necessary to check the attachment of the tool so that the cartridge is not clamped. On this assembly of the self-made drilling machine can be considered finished. In order not to injure the sharp edges of the wooden frame, it must be treated with sandpaper or a file.
