I need help only one of my four holes came out center on the mortise. The mortise is centered. Evidently my marking was off and now I need to fix it. The final hole size is 9/16" with a CB of 1 1/8" on other side. I also accidently made that 1.25 but in hindsight it may have just saved me. What you see from the pictures is that I am off center. how best to recenter? gule in the dust from the first drill press DP operation and then redrill? The first picture is centered the next 2 are not by about 1/8" of an inch? For reference that hole is 1/4" and the mortise are 3/4"

I'm building a lumber rack from 2X4s and 3/4" EMT. I need to drill 3/4" holes at a 5° angle on the edge of an 8' 2X4. They need to start 1' from the end and go up in 1' increments. My problem is that the holes need to angle upward along the length. As you know, our table only tilts on one axis. In the DP mode, that's front and back. Am I missing something?

I don't know if this belongs here but it is about turning. I am finishing a piece (colored ply) and it has tiny tare out holes. What finish would you use to fill them? (or tiny cracks) I normally use HUT friction finish. Thanks

A problem that occurs occasionally is to have a natural or oops created hole in a hollow form that you do not want to leave as a hole. Now the question is "do I fix it and if so HOW?" The answer is use a balloon . Find a balloon that will fit inside the piece and inflate it inside the apply filler of your choice to the outside. As an alternative you can use a plastic bag inside and fill it with sand.

Is there a BEST way to drill a hole thru a cylinder that you have turned down. If you have a piece 8" long X 2" in dia and you want a quarter inch hole going completely thru it, is there a best way to accomplish a straight hole, end to end? My attempts were OK, but could be better. I know someone has a tip or two to share. Thanks

This is my story stick for my layouts. I used the line I drew at the lathe, then intersected that line with the lines on my story stick to layout the rung holes. -
