I have modded a few cheap small drill presses.The problem they all have is a plastic depth stop that is flexible.re-create the plastic part in aluminum,there is one hole that should be bored,as I recall.Bandsaw is close enough for the rest.Then you have a positive stop.Put a Lyman or Forster fixture on a plate.Somehow I put an arbor on an RCBS 3 way cutter.Gave mine to my brother,he has the Dillon presses.Works good.Been a while back,it not here with me.
