Drill Stand Setup and Use for A-Z Drill Sizes

Quick answer

Set up your drill stand for A-Z drill sizes near your bench work area. This guide walks you through placement, drill organization, and common mistakes to avoid.

Steps to set up and use your drill stand

1. Choose a stable flat surface: Place the stand on a level bench or table near your drilling machine. The flat bottom keeps it from tipping. Avoid uneven or cluttered surfaces that could cause the stand to wobble.
2. Sort and insert drills by size: Insert each drill into its corresponding hole, starting from A (smallest) to Z (largest). The holes are cut to prevent unnecessary movement. Double-check that each drill fits its marked hole; forcing a drill into the wrong size can damage the stand.
3. Position the stand for easy reach: Place the loaded stand within arm's reach of your work area. This reduces reaching across the bench and speeds up drill changes. Do not place it behind other tools or in a path where you might knock it over.
4. Remove and return drills after use: Always return each drill to its correct hole after use. This keeps the stand organized and prevents drills from rolling off the bench. Leaving drills on the bench increases the risk of loss or damage.
