We are looking at purchasing a new Drill Press for the space. Pledge opened: 19 September 2013
Pledge leader: sjrapid
The item
- A 2nd user Meddings Drill press with a >=500w motor - Artag is looking out for something suitable
Budget estimation
- £350
Specification
- 16-speeds (existing press is 5) bench-top drill press
- 16mm chuck
- 510w motor (existing is 370w)
- Wet table with tilt
- Rack and pinion lift
Additional information
- The present drill press is very inacurate and has a number of faults. This pledge is to replace it with something built along more industrial lines, that will survive the use/abuse it will get in the space.
- The plan is to implement a modified acNode (but with no restrictions) with the new press to log usage, and also count used hours so that maintenance and lubrication schedule can be followed.
Pledges
- £100 -- sjrapid
Running total: £100
Approximate target: £320
