FreeChex in a drill press

[DukeInFlorida]

I scurried around my barn, looking for a press to install my new FreeChex III check maker in. I was lucky that I found an old Stimpson riveting press that I could adapt to use.

This morning, I bumped into a video showing some fellow running his FreeChex II die set in a drill press successfully. Duh.... why didn't I think of that!

Charlie shipped my FreeChex III die set with a long round pin at the top, which would have chucked into the small harbor freight drill press that I have in my shop. I could have been in business with the FreeChex III without dragging another press (taking up valuable foot print space).

Just thought I would pass that along.

I made it...glad you found it beneficial.

Good idea! Good video, too. Just wish you had shot it from your forward off hand side. Can't see much, but it gets the idea across. :smile:

Ya' know, I was in such a rush, and excited, to do the video that I didn't even slip out of my sleeping cloths. I never really thought about camera angle quite frankly.
