Poor mans beast stick (Pictorial)

[robertreed711]

Low end on mine is supposedly 570, can't imagine 40 rpm would make a difference. Countersink is definitely straight?

Looks like my drill press might have the slightest wobble in it. Never really noticed it before.

That’s the scrap piece I cut off been trying to get it right before I hit the sticks thankfully.

I just did this to a set of api's. I also bolted the unused steps to the top step of my top stick and made a mini platform.

I bet it is in how the bar was clamped, looks like it was a real sharp bit trying to chatter.

This or if the countersink is good and sharp it may catch a little and once it chatters its tough to get it out with a drill press

Try a few drops of cutting oil or even motor oil when you use the countersink. Also, look for a "zero flute" countersink. They are designed to cut at higher speeds and do mostly eliminate chatter. Like this:

#3 HSS Zero-Flute Countersink and Deburring Tool - 90°

Those look to me like the ones DanO sells.

Getting started on my own diy poor man's beast sticks. Just need some standoffs and versa buttons.

You're probably going to want to move that bottom step up if you want to be able to stack them.

Almost finished my first one. I'm going to paint them and use a little different hardware for the strap button.

Points for crocs this time! Get a weight on these yet? Do you plan to drill them out?

I do plan to drill it out after I play with them a bit.
