Drill press

Status

We now have a drill press. The keyless chuck only goes down to 2.7 mm, so we need to get a "pin chuck".

Or use the Dremel and mini-mill for high speed / light duty / precision stuff, this one for everything else.

Ideal jobs :

Dremel

  • High speed, tiny bits e.g. PCB drilling

Mini-Mill

  • Milling plastic, small aluminium etc.
  • Drilling jobs requiring accurate positioning - use the table positioning

Drill Press

  • Most general purpose drilling jobs
