Filed under: misc hacks, tool-hacks[yellowduck] took some fantastic initiative with this home made PCB drill press. Many people have a rotary tool already. Just add some scrap wood and four hinges. The drill press isn't perfect; it pivots a little as it lowers. This shouldn't be a problem for drilling printed circuit boards though. The PCB should be thin enough for the pivot to have little effect. After some test runs, he added a lamp for better lighting and intends to add a return spring and foot switch. It's definitely a better solution than drilling multiple holes with a hand drill.Read | Permalink | Email this | Linking Blogs | Comments
