After making and using the center aid tool by Connorus (http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:725344) I found my drill press wasn't drilling in the exact center of my parts. I needed the holes to be precise so I made a version for my drill press. It uses 1/4 inch bolts to hold the arms and two 5/8 bolts to mount it to my drill press. The mounting holes are 9 inches apart on center or you can use whatever clamps you have. If this is different from your table I included the Sketchup file so you can modify if needed. To center simply clamp the bit with the arms and lock the base in place. I made it with puzzle pieces so I could fit it on the Simple Metal. They fit tight and need to be shaved down to fit together. Even if you have a larger printer and can print it in one piece I would leave it the way it is so you can replace the middle if you ever need to.
