Thanks for all the excellent info. We’ve got a Tacoma Screw branch fairly close by so I should be able to peruse their selection of SHCS (thanks for the education on the acronym, by the way

) to see what will work for me. Thanks, Cheese.
Taking a couple of vacation days next week so will have a little time to get this mod done...just have to do a little shopping between now and then.
I hope the hand wheel works out well. I definitely need to do some mock-ups before I decide on the size, to make sure I have the clearance I’m hoping to have. I want to go with as large a diameter hand wheel as possible, but I’m pretty sure I’m going to be limited to 5”. McMaster Carr definitely had a great selection and I think I found the right combo of wheel diameter, bore and set screw options to fit the bill. Definitely easy to navigate, like was mentioned - thanks, Michael and Bob.
I notice that the DP table is available with the standard hold-down clamps or with knuckle clamps. Has anyone had experience with both and/or can comment if the knuckle clamps are a better option? It’s only a $15.00 price difference, so worth it if they are better/more convenient.
Having a hard time finding the aluminum/ stainless flip stops for the drill press table... will have to do some digging to see if they are still available. Definitely trying to avoid plastic wherever possible. I’ve been spoiled a bit by some of my JessEm stuff... they seem to have a similar plastic allergy to mine

Thanks again for all the great info. I really appreciate it! I’ll digest a bit more of all y’alls informative posts and probably think of more questions.
