This “fixture plate” was attached to the table of a drill press I bought at an action. The holes weren’t very square to the plate, but I figure it could be useful in the future, so I cleaned it up with the fly cutter I made a couple years ago.

Picked up this Kennedy 11 drawer tool chest off CL last weekend. It’s not in perfect shape, a little rust here and there. But still a steal at $55 for it. I do like the thin drawers on these, but I’d never pay full price for them. The current version of this tool box with improved drawer slides is $650+ 😳
