    Default diy wooden X-Y table and rotary head

    Thought I'd post on a tool I've put together. It's an X-Y table, that I can use the "X" movement by itself, to save vertical height on the drill press. I also made a rotary table with 24 indexing points. I've used it for drilling, routing (Including flush cutting pen blanks down to the tube) and with a sanding drum feeding the stock past it. I've even milled a little bit of aluminum, but it's not surprisingly not super with that.
