AC Motor Converted Into DC EBike Powerplant

AC induction motors are everywhere, from ceiling fans to vehicles. They’re reliable, simple, and rugged — but there are some disadvantages. It’s difficult to control the speed wit…

At some point the amount I spend on replacing broken drill bits will surpass the amount it would cost to buy a drill press 🙄

Our Weldinger drill press has been in the Lab for a fewe months now and it's doing great! Stepless speed control, digital height display, and a cross-hatch laser make it super handy and precise. Much more fun to use than our old model!

Just a quick look on that old type plate tells me that this drill press has seen some ....

Something different today.

I got a drill-press jig for my dremel that allows me to drill straight holes through things.
This is good enough in itself.

It also allows you to mount the dremel sideways...

but, there's no included surface for keeping things straight when sideways.

So I made one.

It can adjust up and down with the dremel, and can move towards and away from the dremel.

And it includes a sled for moving things under the tool.
