Delta Drill Press Table Mount

thingiverse

I picked up a drill press at a low cost from a coworker who had it lying around, but the mounting brackets were beyond repair after they likely took a tumble during relocation. The rest of the press functioned properly, so I decided to take a chance and purchase it anyway, figuring it was an opportunity to upgrade the mounts. The original mounts were crafted from cast aluminum, but finding suitable replacements proved challenging, so I hypothesized that using PETG with extra care might be a viable alternative. To my delight, the outcome turned out well. One thing I regret in my initial print runs is omitting the arrow to align with the angle gauge on the underside of the press - it's now rectified in this updated version I've shared here.
