HELP! How catch dust in vaccuum when drilling wall?

Q Drill Press Cart

So you are "still" able to reach every thing in your shop with out a stool? I have "2" step stools in my shop, and they have a place, out of the way, when not in use. I would never be able to get to every thing with out them having operated in the same garage for 25+ years.

Help, looking for a whatchamacallit

Check with your local electric motor rewinding shop. I've actually had them give me short pieces of the stuff. I'm sure they would sell it to you by the foot. The shop will even have silicone/fiberglass insulated high temperature wire.
