i want to mount this on my garage to replace a homemade wooden one. Can I drill this so it fits tht angle iron mount already in place.

I think this can be done. Another option would be to mount it onto the face of the existing back board.

I don't think this backboard is suitable for what you want to do. This one is more like a hard plastic but I doubt it's thick enough to hold onto a screw / bolt after drilling. A wooden board might be best.

if you do drill, you will probably have to reinforce the drill holes with epoxy and wood or other filler. The thing is like 1/16" thick plastic with kind of a grid in the back of raised reinforcing ridges. You would be better off using oriented strand board.

It has three predrilled holes for mounting but I see no problem with drilling more for a custom fit.

Yes! Mine is installed on a wall in my garage. Depending on where I am working, I just grab it and swing it left or right. Just make sure you attach the mount to a stud!

I don't think there is any way to mount it without a drill. You would need to get a floor stand model.

Hi Dennis,I have mine mounted on the corner of my workbench in the basement. It has a 3/4" plywood top and I just drilled four holes, got some bolts, washers and nuts from the hardware store and mounted it on. It was pretty easy. It's a good vice. I use mine all the time. i use it to regrip my golf clubs but also for holding wood and metal that i need to drill through or cut. It handles it all with ease.

I would think so, you have to drill your own mounting holes, as this is a blank plate. I used my base plate from my Ryobi as a guide for drilling the holes in my insert plate. Just really pay attention to which way you have the base plate when you drill the holes. Mine worked out very well, and I am very happy with it.

I don't know...I also bought a mounting bracket from Amazon that is same brand and can either mount to pole or garage. I didn't even end up using it--we made our own mount out of wood.

Check the length of your table to the length of the bench dog table which is 27 inches to see if they are the same. Even if the holes in the side of your saw table are not identical to the bench dog table you have the option to drill. The bench dog comes with bolts, washers and nuts for mounting there unit to your table. I mounted mine to an older Craftsman cast iron table saw and if I recall correctly I had to elongate a hole or two to get the bolts inserted. Good luck, I hope this helps.

Hi Rosco, It would depend on how thick the wood would be after you drilled out the place you wanted it to go. This is a very strong/powerful magnetic so I believe you could. Tommy G

I fit mine onto a 30 year old Craftsman contractor saw and it is still going strong today. As long as there is a place to anchor the brackets, you will be fine. I drilled some holes in the lip of the cast iron table and cranked-down the bolts tight. Use some LockTite to keep them from vibrating loose. I LOVE the micro-adjust feature, that allows paper-thin adjustments for a perfect fit.

Mounting at angles (depending on how much angle your talking about) may not be the best method. It would be advisable to contact the Mfg. before proceeding with an angle mount.

yes, that is how I mounted mine, but you must drill the holes for the screws.

Yes it will work fine but you have to mount the iron part on a piece of 2" angle when attaching to the door. This unit will provide plenty of holding power.

Hi Nordia, Thanks for your question. Yes this mount will work on an angled ceiling. It tilts to accommodate the angle. Yet like Chris said below, anchor into Studs. Hope this helps. Thanks Chris too!

if the surface is angled it would be ok has to be mounted on a flat surface I would not recommend putting washers or spacers to angle it.

Well, I would say that I chose this model because of the 3 screw point mounting. I just figured it would hold better than the 2 screw wooden mount. But if you like the cosmetics of the wood over the steel, then I would say as long as you hit a stud, you should be fine.

You have to drill to use this ladder unless you already have holes the same size that fit. It will not be of any use if not

This is a good question and one I wish I asked before I purchased this drill. The answer is yes, you can mount a drill but it's not from underneath the steel plate that comes with the unit. It's under the slots that make the X in the plate. I have mounted a vise to this drill pres but it is a pain and isn't easy to get lined up the way I want. I often check websites where people sell used tools trying to find someone with a broken press they want to off load cheap so I can take the table off of it. However, with that said, I love this drill. This is the only complaint I have about this drill press. This is a good question and one I wish I asked before I purchased this drill.
