I’ve had success with holding the rod to be drilled in the drill press Chuck and then holding the drill in another Chuck bolted to the table, then using the quill to lower the rod onto the drill. It’s easier to align because you can use the drill bit in the top Chuck and then align the bottom Chuck to meet it, then put the bit in the bottom Chuck.
Great video. I like that you build parts from scrap and try to make that work. Not everybody can do that. I mean drilling a nail...huh...that's next level.
That was really awesome man, congrats on the build. Earned another sub. P.s the solder probably didn't take because of the oxide layer that forms within a minute. Can't wait to see what comes next
I think to say this tried my patience is an understatement. What do you think I should do differently next time??
No drill tailstock on the lathe?
@@Jbearzy not yet, that's coming up in the spring. I wasn't sure on how I wanted to build it so I put it off until later

.. and watching more of the video I see you did that trick. Carry on!

Thank you! I want to try making the heatsink out of copper next time, that should work better!

I believe Elon Musk said something like: if you are not failing you are not inventing enough 👍 And ha-ha the attack 😂
