Zeroing at the drill press

First: Set the distance

between your INCRA

fence and the center of

the bit as required by

your project.

Zeroing at the Drill Press:

Zeroing at the drill press is really the same as zeroing at a

router table. Stop locations at a drill press, however, are almost

always located relative to the center of the bit, not the edge of

the bit. Because of this, and the fact that drill bits are available

in so many different sizes (decimal, 64ths, metric, letter and

number), it is a good idea to use a specific “set up” rod or drill

bit each time you zero your Shop Stop. The  “set up” rod should

have a diameter that is some multiple of 

1

16

". In the steps

following weʼll use a 

1

4

" rod for the set up.

Set the distance between your INCRA Fence and the

center of the drill bit as required by your project. An

INCRA JIG at your drill press makes this step really easy.

Otherwise use a bradpoint drill bit and a ruler, or mark drill

center lines on your workpiece and use these lines to

initially position your INCRA Fence.
Install a short length of 

1

4

" steel rod in your drill press (a

1

4

" twist drill bit will also work well). Place a square cut

piece of scrap stock against the fence with the end of the

board against the 

1

4

" rod.

Lock the INCRA Shop Stop to the fence with the selected

stop surface (vertical arm or horizontal rod) as close as

possible to the end of the board.

Loosen the two black thumbscrews about 

1

8

turn,

then rotate the micro adjust screw clockwise until the

stop surface touches the end of the board. Tighten the

black thumbscrews.
Slide the scale on your fence to read minus

1

2

of the

set up rod diameter. In this case, since we used a 

1

4

"

diameter set up rod, weʼll slide the scale to read

negative 

1

8

" directly under the end of the gold stop cap.

(The scale can be set to read under either end of the

gold stop cap.)  Use the end that gives the best visibility.

When set to this initial position, the scale reading at any

subsequent Shop Stop location will give you a direct

readout of the distance from the end of the workpiece to

the center of the hole.
