Ramp-O-Matic Pinball Rivet Kit Presentation With Tips
This was an awesome hack!! Does the drill press just sit freely on top if the wooden board or is it mounted somehow? And whats keeping the cabinet from coming off the wooden locater. Im thinking bolting the cabinet to the rollerr should be possible?
Great set up. I like the organization.
Woah, these things are sub 20 bucks? I'm a huge fan of the Bisley 5-drawer metal boxes and they're $120. Worth noting that they are a full 15" deep and drawers are 2" tall. They also don't have slides, but I like that I can just rip a drawer out and carry it across the room when I need it. But, $20... I might be persuaded !
Rig up a shop vac to handle the dust as you make it. Get the one from HF.
Maybe if they keep making them slightly larger; they will find the perfect size.
FYI - Your link to the Pit toolbox is to the Lowe's Kobalt toolbox
Yeah I had to get one. Great for my pocket knife collection!
Great comparison video! Nice to see all the players in one place. Thanks for sharing!
FYI: Lowes offers a lower box for the Kobalt...I think it's an online order only though. 👍
I bought my 2 kobalt mini boxes thru lowes online and they were on sale for $14 each, at that price they are the best
Who says these are useless? I never pay mind to the nay say haters for anything. Dunno them, no value or relevancy so no weight in their opinions so doesn’t rain on my days haha. In my diesel converted haul I built into a tiny house camping rig, I use the boxes to divide stuff on counter top, so red us gen has medical boo-boo stuff. White kobalt has small edc tool stuff. A folding knife from bench made, an arc tool from leather man, husky’s new admin 600L inspection light, red and black sharpie, a rite notepad, various pens, a British sas lighter my son once owned… green kobalt has art pens and pencils, have notebooks on top. Plenty useful to me. I mean I use the larger us gen boxes and colors for diff purposes. My gym all the rogue fitness stuff is red so is the sorinex gym stuff, so my boxes that hold small gym items or other stuff are all red. My sons gym is green so all his boxes and storage are that toxic green. His armory is made up of green boxes too haha. Stores his massive knife collection, watches, pew pews, various edged tools, in said boxes. He too uses the small ones to organize gear haha….
is that cabilet super top-heavy? What are you seeing with it toppling over?
I have a pretty nice floor, but the weight of the end cabinet itself is very heavy for the size, so having the drill press on top is surprisingly stable. If you have an uneven floor, you would want to proceed with caution.
I ran out and picked up 2 US General ones. So I like the idea, and well I really liked the price. I do alot of different things, so it was like a small dedicated box for specific uses is what I was after. Like my laser cutter, I dont need many tools, just some allen keys, digi calipier ect. Well they really really need to be just a little bit deeper. Some of my stuff is the same thing as you trying to put in a small tapemeasure, my little allen key with a small screwdriver handle doesnt fit in there. My digi calipiers do fit but the drawers not being full extention mean its only 2/3rds of it come out. So Im fighting actually using them. For the $10 I paid for mine, good value but I would of really liked to pay $15 and have it be any bigger.
I got pink one as XMas present for my GF to store here sewing stuff in...
I got one for my daughter, for her exploratory in auto mechanics for 9th grade. However, I knew she would use it for her makeup. 😂
I want to see a really good use for them. They seem like cool things to keep watches or cufflinks in them.
Drill bits and small things like that I have 4. Very good uses
I have 2 on my electronics repair desk. Micro drivers, soldering tips, nozzles, solder, flux, sliders, and more. I also have 1 near my fab station in the garage (drill press, bench grinder, band saw, and other equipment). I keep the equipment tools, bits, small clamps and such. I hear machinists love them for their machine bits.
I wished someone would offer The Simpsons Pinball Party. This is a very popular pin
I think we will probably see that remade some day, so its a bit risky to invest in redoing the ramps. But it may happen anyway one day. But the new pinball economy is not propping up the secondary parts industry like it did through Covid.
Looks like clear poly sheet. Are you running a vacuum forming machine? I watch "Tested" too, seen all 3 of Adam's vacuum forming machines at work, especially the copies of the AN/PVS5 Night Vision Goggle frames used for Ghostbuster props. ( I ended up here looking for semi hollow riveting info, for restoring WW2 to Vietnam M-1 Steel Helmets in my case)
All of my ramps are vacuum formed on a machine I built for my needs. It has served me well!
Very well thought out and well executed.
Great stuff, thanks!
Don't buy that junk you get what you pay for
I would have just taken a skill saw and trimmed the furniture dolly to fit inside the bottom of the cabinet
Have you used it to drill any metal? Just wondering how it performed.
I really enjoyed your project. Although, I can't see myself going with a white cabinet.
Do you have a link for the taps you are using?
I would have built a dolly into the cavity at the bottom of the cabinet. At the least, i would attach the dolly to the cabinet while it was upside down then flip it over. That way you are not fighting the casters moving around
Was planning to do this. Thanks for blazing the trail!
Just a suggestion of an option, remove the drawer and turn it upside down in a work table for easy install. This maybe moreso important for the bottom drawers.
I have the same drill press and have been looking for a better solution, than what I have. Thanks
Thanks for the great idea, been looking for drill bit storage.
Nice job.
Had to subscribe both because your channel rocks, as well as to surpass that distasteful "666" sub count
If you're gonna replace the casters, you might as well get rid of the oversized dolly footprint and just attach them straight to the cabinet; or build a new dolly platform that's sized to fit the cabinet. Edit: Well I see why you didn't attach directly to the tool cabinet
Looks great. The wheels match the drill press.
Nice job on the review!
Thanks!
Would you recommend the table attachment for metal work?
Probably not, I think the finish would get rubbed off pretty fast with metal edges rubbing on it, and once that black finish is off, the wood would soak up cutting oil and expand. Its some kind of MDF material.
Nice breakdown of the Wen. Happy Thanksgiving!
Thanks! You too!
Just subscribed, you have what it takes to be a content creator!
Nice Job and a nice shop !!!
Yes, but which one has more suction at the hose where it really matters?
No discernable difference between the two. I use this in conjunction with a dust deputy setup.
Turned out really nice. Great job. Lots of good ideas.
Rockler Lock-Align Drawer Organizer System, 13-Piece Starter Kit thay still make this
i use dewalts 12v oscillating tool daily it’s much smaller then my 20v and vibration about half as much and it seems to cut faster
also i’ve used both the 12v milwaukee isn’t faster than the 12v dewalt if anything they are about the same speed with about the same vibration
Nice job. Simple and efficient. You're spot on with the tool "reviews". The majority of them these days are just spec sheet reading infomercials and very little in the way of actual reviewing.
Rub some used motor oil into all the wood you have sanded or cut to help seal it, give it some good color, and help it last longer.
Mineral oil or boiled linseed oil works well and is not as filthy in clean white shop.
In 6 weeks your going to be out of cool things to show us at the rate your dropping videos. Awesome stuff!
is it top heavy could it tip over if wheels hit somthing
Just return it
Amazing idea! I'd like to know where the drill holders came from. I don't own a drill press, but I do have 8 or 9 cordless tools that would fit on that holder.
Welll. Now u get to do a head to head comparison. And milwaukee willl win that.. If it doesn’t then... guess you using it for very very basic diy. i have both. Yes the dewalt is smaller snd seems more nimble... but when u drop in a highoutput cp battery (the small round one) into this m12fuel .. boyyyyyyyy.. itsssss the sht P.S. i have both, 19/20 i reach for the the waukeee
