Thanks for the input, all, but I'm not quite building a drill press as is conventionally known. There is no table, just a flat surface that you push flush against the surface your drilling into.

My Dad had a device simialr to what you are talking about that was a Craftsman. It works simlar to how you describe. There is a flat round "base" with a clearance hole through it for the drill chuck. Attached perpendicular to the base is 2 parallell shafts. A "slider" moves freely up and down the shafts. Attached to the slider, is a std issue electric or cordless drill motor.

That "press" tool works extremely well on irregular surfaces or something very large that you cannot fit into a regular drill press. I'm sure by the time you read this post, it will be after you have to turn in your project, but I wanted to let you know I understand where you were going and what you were after. If I can find the unit at my Daqd's place, I'll shoot a digital photo and post it so everybody can see what you are talking about.
