How do I check whether my drill press table is square to the bit?
| Reading across 150 mm | Verdict | Action |
|---|---|---|
| Under 0.05 mm | Good | Nothing |
| 0.05-0.1 mm | Acceptable for wood | Note it, re-check after moving the table |
| 0.1-0.3 mm | Poor | Shim the low side, re-check |
| Over 0.3 mm | Bad | Check the column for wear or a bent spindle |
Without an indicator: chuck a 300 mm length of 6 mm rod, lower it to just touch the table, and measure the gap with feeler gauges at four points. A square held against the column and the table tells you the same thing roughly.
Why it matters: an out-of-square table makes every hole slightly angled. In a dowel joint that shows as a joint that will not close, and in a hinge cup it shows as a door that hangs crooked no matter how you adjust it.
