TOP drill stands: rating of models for vertical drilling 2022 - 2022

In such a situation, it is difficult to do the job efficiently, because the cutter or drill can jump off in the middle of the process and increase the diameter of the hole.

It was precisely in order to avoid the situation of the drill slipping that the drill stand was designed.

Together with a drilling tool, the whole thing turns into a mini-machine.

What features of drill stands should you pay attention to when choosing?

On the modern market there are a great variety of racks for sale, to suit every taste and budget, as they say. However, it is worth choosing a convenient model, taking into account some nuances:

• If possible, choose a model made of cast iron: it is more practical and durable.
• It should be possible to adjust the drilling depth: this option is important in cases where you need to make several identical holes.
• If the movement mechanism is powered by springs, the holder will automatically return to its original position as soon as the pressure on the lever is reduced.
• The necessary parts must include a frame (responsible for the stability of the structure), a guide post, an equipment holder and a travel mechanism.
• The landing collar is another required element of the rack. Standard diameter is 4.3 cm.

Important! The more massive the holder, the more stable it will be.

Mechanism for moving the drill in the vertical direction

A homemade drilling machine must be equipped with a mechanism that will ensure the movement of the drill in the vertical direction. The structural elements of such a unit are:

• a handle with which the carriage with a drill attached to it is brought to the surface of the workpiece;
• a spring necessary to return the carriage with the drill to its original position.

Spring mechanism for moving the drill

You can make such a mechanism using two design schemes:

• the spring is connected directly to the handle of the machine;
• the springs are located at the bottom of the carriage - in special grooves.

According to the first option, the design is carried out according to the following scheme:

• two metal plates are fixed on the machine stand using screws, between which an axis is installed, where the installation handle will be placed;
• on the other side of the rack, plates and an axis are also installed, on which one end of the spring is fixed, and its second end is connected to the handle;
• the pin with which the handle is connected to the installation carriage is placed in a longitudinal groove made in it.

The basis was an old stand from a Crocus photo enlarger made in Poland

If the springs are located at the bottom of the return mechanism, then the handle of the device is also fixed using two plates and an axis that ensures its movement. With this design, the springs are located in the lower part of the guide grooves, which are modified using metal corners that limit their movement.

The principle of operation of a drilling machine, in which the springs are located at the bottom of the carriage, is quite simple: moving down during the drilling process, the carriage with the drill attached to it presses on the springs, compressing them; after the mechanical impact on the springs stops, they unclench, lifting the carriage and drill to their original position.

Pros and cons of homemade racks

The most important and fat plus is saving money. In most cases, you can make a drill stand (guide) for a screwdriver or drill from scrap materials.

Even if you don’t have some components in the garage, you can buy them for pennies at a metal collection center (for example, if you decide to make guides for a moving part from shock absorbers).

To make a tripod (vertical stand), a profile pipe is usually used - many have it in stock, and buying it is not a problem.

Another advantage of a homemade rack is that the structure can be customized to suit you - make it the size you need (for example, if you transport it in a car).

At the same time, you don’t need to climb all over the Internet to find suitable drawings - you can make a rack without them.

The only downside that can be noted is that a homemade drill stand is not designed to perform high-precision operations. And, of course, it is in many ways inferior to a drilling machine.

Enkor 20090

The stand that has received the largest number of reviews from customers on such well-known trading platforms as Yandex.Market and All Tools. The overwhelming majority of comments are written in a positive manner.

• Characteristics Average price: 3,800 rub.
• Country Russia
• Height (mm): 550
• Drill socket diameter (mm): 43
• Working stroke (mm): 65
• Base size (mm): 160×160
• Weight (kg): 6.8

Before us is a drill stand that has collected more than one, among which there is practically no negative. The tool is praised for its quality and reliability. The platform and carriage into which the drill is mounted are made of durable cast iron. The vertical pipe is stainless, with thick walls. There is also a fairly powerful hardened spring that does not sag after prolonged use. The tool definitely deserves attention and takes pride of place in our rating. The only disadvantages include the absence of a vice and the holes for attaching them directed only in one direction. If you have a non-standard vice, you will have to do some magic with their placement on the base.

Advantages and disadvantages

• Cast iron carriage
• Long lever
• Thick wall vertical pipe
• Powerful spring

• Vise slots in one direction

Caliber 96202

The model is equipped with an extended handle and a drill immersion scale. Very convenient for precision work and does not limit the use of some non-standard drills.

• Characteristics Average price: 1,800 rub.
• Country Russia
• Height (mm): 400
• Drill socket diameter (mm): 46
• Working stroke (mm): 60
• Base size (mm): 162×162
• Weight (kg): 2.02

A drill stand, like any other tool, can be used for home use or professional use. Now we have something in between. From a professional tool there are auxiliary modules. There is a ruler and a depth limiter, as well as a spring lock in the selected position. There is also a very long handle, which adds convenience to the tool, especially if you are using a drill with a large handle. At the same time, the stand will cost only 1.5 thousand, which corresponds to a household product. The model cannot be called low quality. The base is completely steel. The vertical pipe is stainless and the carriage is cast iron. In general, an excellent option, which is quite difficult to find flaws in.

Advantages and disadvantages

• Affordable price tag
• Extended handle

• All fasteners are turnkey only
• Very short spring

How to use the device

The manipulations are not particularly difficult. However, like working with many other tools, it requires care and compliance with safety regulations. The main requirements are considered to be:

1. Before you begin, you need to make sure that the drill is securely fastened.
2. The workpiece must be firmly fixed.
3. Manipulations with the drill are carried out with both hands.
4. It is strictly prohibited to operate the unit without protective devices.
5. It is not recommended to exert maximum physical effort when working with a drill or screwdriver. You cannot put pressure on the equipment.
6. If there is a need to switch operating modes, the tool should be completely stopped. This cannot be done during manipulation.
7. Once drilling is complete, do not touch the adapter with your hand. It may become hot and cause burns.

Where to buy the product? The question is not particularly difficult. It is advisable to visit a specialized retail outlet. There you can get acquainted with the presented assortment, understand what it costs, communicate with a professional sales manager, and, if necessary, get professional advice from him.

There is another purchasing option - order the product online in an online store. This allows you to save some free time and some money. However, no one is safe from receiving a low-quality model, even if you first study the characteristics of the selected device, look at the photos provided, and decide on a well-promoted brand. Often, instead of an expensive product from a foreign manufacturer, you receive a low-quality disposable Chinese counterfeit. Much depends on the integrity of the supplier.

SPARTA 934055

• Characteristics Average price: 2,000 rub.
• Country: China
• Height (mm): 470
• Drill socket diameter (mm): 43
• Working stroke (mm): 72
• Base size (mm): 226×226
• Weight (kg): 2.55

At first glance at this tool, you may get the impression that it has a professional purpose. Confidence-inspiring large closed carriage, high platform with diagonal slots. Even a vice is included, which is quite rare. At the same time, the price is only 2 thousand rubles, and the thought of some kind of catch involuntarily creeps in. He really is. Silumin is used in almost all parts. Metal is fragile and short-lived. It should not be subjected to high loads. It turns out that what we have in front of us is a very ordinary household counter. But already with a vice and ready to work. A good option for your money if you only use it occasionally.

Advantages and disadvantages

• The set includes a vice
• Wide platform

• Quite fragile design

Skrab 25519

The rotating carriage allows you to work at an angle of 90 degrees, which makes it possible to place not only a hand drill on the stand, but also a grinder with a direct disk arrangement.

• Characteristics Average price: 4,400 rub.
• Country: Latvia (manufactured in China)
• Height (mm): 425
• Drill socket diameter (mm): 43
• Working stroke (mm): 60
• Base size (mm): 156×156
• Weight (kg): 3.4

The manufacturer decided to outperform its competitors in terms of originality. In essence, we have before us an ordinary vertical drill stand, however, judging by the description, you can install not only a drill, but also a grinder in it. Of course, only with a straight disk arrangement, since angular placement simply does not make sense. In addition, the stand allows you to drill holes at an angle. The solution is frankly strange, since this function is most often performed by an ordinary vice. Be that as it may, the carriage of the tool is movable, capable of rotating 90 degrees. If you have tasks suitable for it, then finding an alternative on the market will be quite difficult.

Advantages and disadvantages

• Rotary carriage
• Possibility of installing a grinding machine

• Small stroke
• Duralumin carriage

Making a machine tripod

The machine will consist of the following parts:

• Bottom part;
• metal vertical guides;
• upper part with cartridge.

Bottom part

It is a board or thick plywood in which we drill two holes for the guides. These holes should be slightly larger in diameter than the guides so that in the future they can be set exactly at 90 degrees.

Metal vertical guides

They are two rods of the same size. They are attached to the bottom of the product using cold welding or epoxy resin.

In order to set them straight at an angle of 90 degrees, you can use a regular wooden block, in which the cuts on both sides should also be straight.

After the glue has completely dried, we make the upper part.

Upper part with chuck

It is made from a bar as follows. We accurately measure three holes on the block, two at the edges, they will be through and one in the center. In the central hole, the depth on both sides will be equal to the width of the bearings, which will be glued with the same glue to the axis of the chuck and the central hole of the upper part of the machine.

We install bushings in the side holes that will move freely along the metal guides, but there should be no play. The bushings must be selected exactly according to the diameter of the guides.

We also glue these bushings so that they are tightly secured and do not fly out.

We take the cartridge and glue the guide to its axis.

We put the guide on the cartridge axis and remove excess glue. The guide should also fit tightly onto the chuck axis. We get the following.

We install a bearing of a pre-selected size on the cartridge tube.

We coat it with glue and install it in the central hole of the upper part of the machine.

On the other side we do the same thing, install the second bearing.

As you can see, the tube is clamped in the cartridge. Instead, you can clamp a drill. It is needed in order to subsequently install the cartridge at an angle of 90 degrees relative to the bottom of the product.

After installing the cartridge and the glue has dried, remove the upper part of the product from the guides and place springs and washers on the metal rods.

Springs can be purchased at any hardware store. Then we put on the top.

You can install plugs on the vertical rods. We cut a hole in the bottom of the product for ease of drilling.

It turns out like this.

Checking the product for accuracy and quality of work

Installs a drill, drills a hole

insert a metal rod or drill of a suitable diameter into it.

We measure with a corner to make a right angle after drilling.

Our expectations and efforts were justified. The machine works accurately. Can be used when performing work.

Result of work

If you liked my article, give it a thumbs up. I hope you find it useful.

Good luck.

DIOLD SMS-43

Included with the stand you also receive spare bolts, a set of wrenches for repairs and adjustments, as well as a cast iron vice. This is the richest package at a low total cost of the product.

• Characteristics Average price: 1,800 rub.
• Country: Russia (manufactured in China)
• Height (mm): 550
• Drill socket diameter (mm): 43
• Working stroke (mm): 65
• Base size (mm): 245×245
• Weight (kg): 2.37

Studying the reviews left under this product by real customers, you can find a lot of negativity. It concerns not the most durable structure, but also balancing. Apparently, the heavy carriage is a little overweight, and the stand must be firmly screwed to the workbench. But all these shortcomings are covered by the product package. In addition to the rack itself, you also receive a set of keys with different tips, three spare bolts for each module and a vice. The biggest rarity on the market. And all this costs less than 2 thousand rubles. Otherwise, it’s an ordinary vertical stand, hardly suitable for professional use.

Advantages and disadvantages

• Maximum configuration
• Own vice

• Failed balancing
• There are brittle metals in the structure

The popular STAYER brand has been on the market for a long time and is famous for its ability to create products with the ideal combination of price and quality. This drill stand visually inspires confidence. It has a thick platform, many options for attaching to a workbench. Even a vice is already included. The carriage is made of cast iron, and the vertical stand is made of stainless steel. And if it weren’t for a certain amount of negativity in the comments under the product, the tool could have been significantly raised in the ranking. But, as users write, not every drill is suitable here. The mount is non-standard, and before purchasing, be sure to study this issue so that later you do not have to buy either a new stand or a new drill.

Advantages and disadvantages

• Many mounting options
• Own stationary vice

• Not suitable for all drill models
• Not the most comfortable handle

Do-it-yourself vertical stand for a screwdriver

Now let's look at the second option for a homemade stand. In general, the design is very simple, but most importantly, it works. The idea belongs to the author of the YouTube channel Gökmen ALTUNTAŞ.

In this case, it is quite compact, since it is designed for use in conjunction with a screwdriver.

However, you can adapt it for an electric drill by slightly increasing its size. And then you will get a homemade drill stand.

The advantage of this design is that its manufacture requires a small amount of materials. You don’t even have to buy many parts - you can find them in the garage.

We will make the drill stand stand from 20 mm thick plywood. You can also take a piece of board.

First of all, we saw off a blank of the required size from the plywood. Then we mark and drill two holes in it. Using epoxy glue, glue the guides.

We round the sharp corners of the base on a grinding machine. We make a movable platform from wood or plywood.

In the moving part we drill holes with a diameter of 19 mm for the bearings. Lubricate the outer part of the bearings with epoxy glue and insert the bearings into the holes.

We screw an adapter into the drill chuck, onto which we put a round tube. It must not only be put on, but firmly fixed with epoxy glue.

In the moving part we drill seats with a diameter of 29 mm for round bearings.

We put the first bearing on the tube and press it into place from the bottom of the platform. Then we put the second bearing on the pipe and also press it into the seat. For reliability we use epoxy glue.

We put springs and washers on the guides. Then we install a movable platform with a drill chuck.

It will be necessary to press wooden “plugs” onto the upper part of the guides to limit the stroke.

We clamp the shank of the drill chuck in the screwdriver chuck, and then use a crown of a suitable diameter to drill a hole in the base.

At this point, the process of making a homemade product can be considered complete. Then all that remains is to paint everything or coat it with mineral oil. Of all the racks, this option is the simplest and most cost-effective.

You can watch the author's video for details on how to make this device.

Filigree channel drilling

The A&M concern has developed a special attachment for drilling wood . Under the MILWAUKEE brand it is called Pathfinder, and under the AEG brand it is called 3D bit. The use of such a special drill attachment will greatly facilitate the work of builders, carpenters, carpenters and mechanics, as well as electricians and plumbers, because it can be used to drill inclined holes in hard-to-reach places, gutters and channels for installing cables and pipes.

The cutting action of this nozzle is carried out in three directions and allows you to cut into material where conventional drills are powerless. The drilling speed with the new attachment is three times higher than with feather drills, and the selection of channels, grooves and grooves is much more accurate, so the holes are even, smooth and without chips. The drill has six edges, which are sharpened with a regular file or emery stone.

We advise you to decide in advance on the nature of the work that you will most often and in large quantities perform. And only after that, start looking for the attachments, attachments and accessories you need for the drill.

Sparky SP 43

The stand is designed in such a way that a drill of any brand and size can be installed in it. The compact design, quick to install on the surface, is equipped with all the necessary parts, including a repelling spring.

Drill manufacturers do not have a uniform standard. Tools can have different sizes and shapes, and if you have the simplest stand, but an unusual drill, it’s not a fact that you can connect them. It is versatility that is the main advantage of the product. Despite the classic size of the mounting socket, it has a non-standard clamp shape, so you can install almost any drill in the rack. The quality of construction is also at the highest level. If the brand is unfamiliar to you, then most likely you are mistaken. This is a popular German manufacturer AEG, whose quality is well known throughout the world.

Advantages and disadvantages

• Universal mounting socket
• Molded stand
• Popular brand

• There are restrictions on the power of the drill used

How to choose a nozzle

Everyone's selection criteria are different. Some are satisfied with inexpensive models, while others need products with advanced functionality from well-known global manufacturers. Which company is better to purchase products depends on the personal preferences of the user. However, experts advise when choosing to pay special attention to the following parameters:

1. Shape and size. These indicators are not always indicated by the manufacturer in the documents accompanying the product. Dimensions are measured in two ways: from the tip of the bit to the back of the body and from the axis of the drill to the point where it rests on the work surface. The dimensions and shape of the angle attachment are of no small importance. It is necessary to proceed from the length of the body. Even the most compact 12-volt screwdriver from China has a length of 20 cm. This is the minimum length to which the device can be inserted. It is necessary to leave room for maneuvering and the hand that holds it.
2. Equipped with a massive overlay of significant girth. Provides the ability to comfortably hold the device with your palm. Without it, the durable metal case will put a lot of pressure on your hand, making manipulation painful.
3. With a shortened attachment body, the palm may come into contact with the rotating chuck. This nuance is worth taking into account. It may cause difficulties when using the device. If you have a small body, you need to take care of the handle. To tighten and unscrew the screws, you need to apply pressure. If this action is not taken, the bit slot may slip out of the mounting hole in the screw or screw before rotation begins.
4. An additional handle on the corner holders is installed on both the right and left sides, so that all craftsmen, both left-handed and right-handed, can work comfortably. You can also change the position of the handles. In some models there are 6 such positions. The estimated step is 30 degrees.
5. Installation of nozzles. Universal versions are available, into which everything that can be clamped into a drill is inserted. The chuck makes it possible to quickly and easily remove a drill stuck in a hole. Most miter drilling products work with hex bits and drill bits. It is advisable to choose a product with quick change of equipment. In this case, the attachments inserted into the cartridge should not fall out when holding the unit in any spatial position. It is also impossible to simply pull out the device, even if you apply force. The bits are removed from the mounting hole only after pressing the chuck.
6. Tool entry angle. The standard indicator is 90 degrees. However, manufacturers produce models in which the body bend is 105 degrees.
7. It is worth choosing products from well-known manufacturers who have been on the market for a long time and have not tarnished their reputation with defective goods. Their build quality is excellent. They provide a long-term guarantee for their creations. Every year new products are released that you need to take a closer look at. They are more advanced and modified.
8. The recommended rotation speed of the unit is 300 rpm.
9. The kit should contain instructions for the drilling equipment with a description of all characteristics and parameters. It is imperative to pay attention to the presence of a quality certificate.
10. It is advisable to have a magnet to grip the bat.
11. The best option is to have a height adjustment function.
12. You should not lose sight of such an indicator as the screw-in depth.
13. The methods of fastening the drill are of no small importance. The magnetic grip is considered the most practical, while the three-jaw connection, according to buyers, provides maximum grip strength.
14. Reverse option available. This will expand the functionality of the product.

RedVerg DS-43

The stand is made of durable materials: cast iron, aluminum and alloy steel. The design does not use low-quality silumin, and plastic is used only on the handle pad. The price remains at an acceptable level.

• Thin wire spring

DIY drill guide

We bring to your attention the third budget version of a homemade device. The design is also quite simple to manufacture, but is made of metal. This idea belongs to the author of the YouTube channel Be Creative.

Materials that will be required for the manufacture and assembly of the drill stand:

• profile pipe;
• metal bushings;
• clamp for drill;
• steel plates;
• guides;
• return springs.

First of all, it is necessary to make a movable part of the stand to which the electric drill will be attached. In the previous version it was made of wood, in this one it is made of corrugated pipe.

Cut a piece of square profile and cut out the ends of the saddle. Then we weld two bushings to it.

In the middle you need to weld a clamp to attach the electric drill. It can be made from a piece of round pipe, two nuts and a bolt.

Next, we cut off three pieces of steel strip and weld the base of the stand (support platform) from them.

We weld guides made of smooth reinforcement to the base. We put springs on them.

We fix the drill with a clamp, and then put the moving part on the guides.

The homemade drill stand is ready. Yes, it looks very primitive and flimsy, but it can be made very quickly from scraps of metal.

The detailed manufacturing and assembly process of this structure can be seen in the video below.

Required Parts

Any drill stand, regardless of its dimensions and taking into account the purpose of such devices, has basic structural elements, each of which performs its own functions and must meet certain requirements.

• The bed is one of the main components of the described equipment, which is its base (stand) and ensures the stability of the entire structure. In addition, a vice is located on the bed for fixing the workpieces being processed. The weight and dimensions of this element depend on the power of the tool used and the list of tasks performed.
• A guide post, which is positioned strictly vertically in relation to the base. Even with a slight deviation, the workpiece being processed can be damaged and the drill or cutter can be broken. Depending on the design features of a particular model, this part can be made of different materials.

• Movement mechanism. There are no strict requirements for the design of this node; templates are not applied. Its main task is to ensure smooth movement, secured with brackets or clamps of the drilling tool along the tripod. There are many variations of such mechanisms.
• Holder for equipment (drill, hammer drill, screwdriver). Clamps, blocks and other mounting elements are used as effective fastening.

HammerFlex STD135

The cheapest drill stand in our rating. Its cost is approximately 30% lower than that of its closest competitor.

• Characteristics Average price: 1,000 rub.
• Country: Czech Republic (manufactured in China)
• Height (mm): 250
• Drill socket diameter (mm): 45
• Working stroke (mm): 40

If you only need a drill stand from time to time and are not willing to pay for a professional tool, be sure to pay attention to this product. This is the cheapest option on the market, and produced by a fairly well-known brand. The secret lies in the form factor of the product. There is no usual carriage here. The socket into which the drill is attached is mounted on two pins with springs. The base also serves as a kind of vice. Not the most convenient, and you won’t be able to install your own clamp here. There are no depth limiters either. All work will have to be done by eye. In general, the most primitive stand, the main advantage of which is its price.

Advantages and disadvantages

• The lowest price
• Possibility of tilting at different angles

• Primitive design
• Can't install a vice

How to make a drilling device with your own hands

Before proceeding directly to the manufacture of the device, it is necessary to determine for what purposes it will be used, and then select the optimal design.

Conductors differ in functionality and type of execution. The following types of devices are most in demand:

1. Invoices. The devices are placed on the part to be processed and secured to it using mechanisms or manually. Used for drilling holes in flat products.
2. Rotary. The tool is used when it is necessary to make holes in products with a cylindrical cross-section. They have vertical and horizontal rotating axes, allowing drilling at the desired angle.
3. Universal. Suitable for small-scale production, allowing for changeover in the shortest possible time.
4. Tiltable. They are used in cases where technology requires drilling holes in several planes.
5. Sliding. No mounting is required for these devices. The device is simply applied to the desired area of ​​the workpiece.
6. Pinned. They are easy to use, but are limited in movement across the surface of the product.

By making your own drilling jig, you can save a fair amount of money for more important needs.

For construction you will need:

• Bulgarian;
• welding machine;
• drill;
• locksmith tools.

The manufacture of the device is carried out in the following sequence:

1. A piece of reinforcement with a square section of 10x10 mm is selected.
2. A piece of the required length is cut, the edges and edges are cleaned.
3. Markings are made for template holes. Their center should be located at least 8 mm from the edge. A distance of at least 32 mm is maintained between the centers of the nearest holes.
4. A hole with a diameter of 5 mm is drilled in pre-marked centers.
5. To create a stop, you will need a metal plate 1 mm thick and 2.5 mm wide, bent at a right angle.
6. A thread is cut in the plate and in the fittings for attaching the clamp.
7. Both parts are connected into a single structure.

Having certain skills in handling a simple tool, making a drilling device is not so difficult. For infrequent use in the household, such a device is quite sufficient. If all else fails, then the easiest option is to purchase the device in specialized or construction hypermarkets.
