I recently started to turn large segmented salt & pepper mills, and had problems boring a long hole acurately through 10" of wood.
Came across this on the internet, made it, it works, so passing it on to you. I made some slight modifications to the original drawing
in that it was clamped to the table. I changed that to coach bolts, which made it easier to move and set up.
The wood are offcuts of Oak, and the other
holes in the top are bored so that it can be put on any part of the table. I have shown it with one clamp for clarity. I would
normally use two to make sure it is held against the side & back uprights. The sandpaper assists in holding the work.
