Poor Man's Publications Machine Tool Plans

[Rixtrix]

Does anyone know if they are still in business? They have a lot of plans for making inexpensive, simple to make, machining tools and adapters. I saw a plan to add an extended arbor to a drill press that you put  a bearing on to absorb side loads so you can do light mill work. Enco tool has arbors available cheaply. I just have to find out what taper my drill press has for the chuck arbor. As If I don't have enough projects going already,lol. Too hot to shoot, even at night!

Hey Ric,

Try here:  http://www.metalwebnews.com/poorman/wood.html . See if that doesn't get you close. It's what came up on my friend Google (don't know what I'd do without it ;~)

Thanks. I found that , too. If you go to the main page, it says unable to ship due to health problems. The page is dated 2003.
