Best Drill Press in Its Class
By Blue Water BobVerified Purchaser from Houston, TX on 10/17/2007
Pros:
Powerful, very smooth no vibrations
Cons:
no chuck key holder
Best Uses:
At Home, Contract Jobs
Describe Yourself:
Professional
Primary use:
Personal
Bottom Line:
Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

The drill press is used primarily for woodworking.
The runout is .003 and is very smooth when running. The 4&7/8 inch spindle travel is a real plus when drilling dowel holes into the ends of long shelves. I would recommend this press to anyone wishing to upgrade or wanting to buy quality equipment for his shop.
