Re: drill press


My grandfather was a mech e and a machineist. He had all these really heavy vises, clamps, v-blocks ... he used to hold things. My grandmother sold every thing when he died. You couldn't imagine how many dies and what not he had.

One question...how do you clap/vise the bolts/nuts to the drill press?

for exampe, if I bought this:

Northern Industrial 5-Speed Bench Drill Press with Laser — 1/2 HP | Drill Presses | Northern Tool + Equipment

How do I hold the nuts/bolts on the drill press?

Do you just hold the nuts by hand?
