Round bar centre finder | drill the centre of round bar

I didn't know how to align the round stock for drill a center. Your video really helped.

A pillar drill! (Drill press).I get a kick out of all the different regions, naming tools differently. You can tell where they're from, by what they call certain tools, pretty accurately sometimes.

I bought a bell punch n sadly it doesn't go under 12mm ,I work on round stock from 10mm to 8mm n any advice mate ?❤️

It's only as accurate as the tool is, if it's been made out of true then you may as well just `eye ball` it

thats fine if your drill chuck isnt sloppy

It does not do one important thing, doesn't have any option to place the hole at the exact position lengthwise, in addition to placing it centered in relation to the diameter. But in most cases it's also important. Or at least no option that I can see...

Thanks, i couldn't figure out what this was.

From iraq well done

where can i find it

Interesting, but I still didn't get the answer to my practical question. I have a three-meter-long brass pipe (diameter 15, wall thickness 3) and I want to drill two parallel holes at both ends of that pipe and one in the center. How can I do that? Parallelly.

VERY GOOD FROM JOHNNY U.

Got one works great .

Useful.....👍👍👍

I purchased one last year because I have to drill holes in 7/8 inch wood rails a lot. This finder removes the guess work out of finding the center of a rail or tube.

wow, that's an excellent solution !!!. thanks for sharing

Well done , nice simple device, decent video, good sound, good light , no bullshit

So that special vice (and instructions how to attach vice) comes with the centering drill piece, yes?
....lol!...um, no...😉

Don't buy stuff any more, have enough already, it needs to get organised, my being on earth is is mostly a burned up and stressed out ,depressed maybe as well...is this the time travel zone I live currently in?

¡Excelente idea! Haga un video en el buscador central

How would you drill an identical hole at the other end ensuring that it is perfectly true to the first hole?

A FREE method is take your center drill bit or any super fine point drill bit and put it in your chuck. Then lower it to the round stock but place the thinnest but sturdy shim stock in between the point and the round stock. Adjust and when the shim stock is horizontally level then you've found your center.

SUPER!

Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!

what about small diamters? 4mm+?

Nice one...but what about larger dia pipes ...like 200 , 250 or 300 NB pipes...pls suggest

I what country are you? In Germany it's absolutely forbidden to drill with gloves.

very handy tool.. nice vid

Đụ má ko hiểu nó làm cái trò gì luôn

Great idea!

Valeu !!! Vou fazer um !

Why didn't you lock (clamp) the vice to the table

very good job

Приспособление хорошее и логичное. При условии, если шпиндель сверлильного станка или патрон не "бьёт" по радиалу. (когда сильно изношены подшипники шпинделя или с кулачками патрона что-то не в порядке). Пробовал такую приспособу лет 20 назад на раздолбаном сверлильном - "увёл" отверстие при сверлении. Точнее бы "на глаз" получилось.)))
(из личной практики)

Хороший инструмент!

very good toy , just i have sale from india

Great idea behind that!

Never use gloves especially cotton while using pillar drill or hand drill too dangerous

Congrats for your video and explanation, very useful.....you got a new subscribe.

Ты посоветовал хорошего приспособление,а посоветовал бы тебе снять перчатки при сверлении.
Техника безопасности .

Very good!!

Лайк за субтитры на русском...приспособа классная экономит время для простых работ...👍

Hi there. I have this accessory for my drilpress and I never used because I am not sure for it's accuracy. Do you have any idea how to test that....??

OMG.......with handshoes........Not good........

Far too slow speed on centre drill. Wearing gloves using drill, no no.

Hi There☺, please can you tell me where i can get this helpfull tool? Greets from Vienna, Christian 🤗

Would this work for a benchtop milling machine like a jet 16?

Use a flat stick w/ 2 nails spaced 3 or 4 inches apart. Put a hole in the stick precisely in the center between the 2 nails. Put it over the bar and turn it until the nails contact the bar. There's yer dinner. I've made them on the fly on jobs. It's an age old problem that was solved long ago.

Muito bom!
