You are right, the hose reel is too low and it's on my list to do, the position of the vice hasn't caused me any problems so far but if it does I'll just drill another set of holes.
Work surface is 1700mm x 1000mm so I've got enought room to shift stuff around, just got to find a suitable pillar drill then I'll be happy
nice work, i'd say the same about the vice too for exprience but hey it's only a set of holes.
avoid the b&q drill press there not that good either find a secondhand industrial one or maybe a wickes one they used to be quite good in a diy way.
i'd add a length of round bar 6-8mm between the two side legs near the mig to hang the clamps off as in one of those piccy's i posted,there far more accessable and but get in the way.
