I purchased a drill stand accessory that converts my rotary tool to a drill press. It’s a great system, but there are two problems — the base is rather small plus it lacks storage for all of the tool’s accessories.
I designed the small cabinet you see here to address these issues. The top has two “outriggers” that support long workpieces and also act as handles for moving the cabinet to the benchtop. Underneath, you’ll find a drawer for accessories and a cubby sized to fit the tool’s plastic case. The drawings here show how it all goes together.
I started with the basic box for the case. Then I added the drawer guides, drawer, and handles before attaching the drill stand to the top.
