Default Re: Drill Press Advice Please

I have an eye for tools, being that I used them for 20 years or so for a living, but I am not too impressed with the quality of tools/power tools at Harbor Freight. If that's your price range and you're only going to use it once or twice a year, then go for it.

I feel I stepped up buying a Black & Decker Fire Storm at Lowes for $75.00 5 years ago. After doing so I realized it's limitations. It does the job but isn't expandable to what can be attached to the table.

Now Model Expo had some nice table top press and I know Grainger http://www.grainger.com/Grainger/WES...EN4?Pid=search has this one I have been eyeing for quite some time.

It really depends on use and wallet size. Don't buy a tool on price but usage and you'll be satisfied.

(Oh, and I do not work for any of the above companies I listed)
