How to make a drill with your own hands?

A compact drilling machine is a necessary thing in a home laboratory. If you are engaged in the construction of various types of devices, then the acquisition of such a machine becomes a necessity. But you can always make a drilling machine with your own hands, it's much more interesting and cheaper. Moreover, for this we do not need scarce materials, this task is possible for each of us. The main thing is to decide for what purposes you will use this device and what power is ultimately necessary for the machine to work.

If you are a ham radio, you can use small-sized self-made small-capacity drilling machine to drill holes in printed circuit boards . It consists of an engine with a cartridge, which can be purchased at a specialized store. As a moving part, it is proposed to use a PZF frame. Such devices were designed for macro photography and now the need for them has disappeared. In the presence of parts, making a small drilling machine with your own hands will not be difficult and will not take much time. You will also need a small piece of organic glass or textolite.

We begin the assembly. First, cut out the organic glass or textolite in size and screw it to the base of the future machine. Next, prepare the hole for mounting the motor and install it. Now we organize the power of the electric motor, we collect the circuit through a small switch. Motors of this power can be powered by DC voltage, which means that you need a power supply. Everything, you have collected a self-made compact drilling machine with your own hands. Before the first start-up, be sure to check the ohmic resistance of the motor and the integrity of the switch. The position of the motor is adjustable Screw on the right.

If you want to assemble a drilling machine with your own hands of more power, then to realize this idea you will need a powerful electric motor with power from the household network. Ideal option in this case may be an electric drill, especially, there is no need to search for a cartridge for drills. The main difficulty will be the construction of a mobile base. This problem is solved using a lifting table or a base from the vice. Of course, you can also use a mobile support on which the drill is attached, but in this case you will have to deal with the vibration that will necessarily arise when the machine is working.

Attach the drill well to the vertical base using the mounting brackets. It is best to use two or more fasteners. Turn on the drill and check for vibration at maximum speed under load. Then mount the mobile horizontal base. To make a machine drill table, it will not take much time, the main thing - carefully collect all the main parts of the product. Such a device is quite suitable for carpentry, in addition, it can cope with drilling miniature holes for printed circuit boards or household homemade products.
