Customer Reviews & Comments This is my first drill press, so I did a little research before buying it. I was looking for a smaller press for precise work with stone beads and fine diamond bits. After realizing that smaller didn't mean cheaper I realized that this 10" machine would be good enough (small runout and a chuck that goes nearly to zero for holding small bits), and also allow me to do some small woodworking projects. Setup was very easy. The manual has good pictures and explanations at each step. Somehow figure 31 has the wrong picture behind the labels, but anyone who ever used a drill chuck shouldn't need figure 31 anyway. Bolts to hold the base down to your workbench are included, as are allen wrenches. The other tools you'll need to set it up are a soft mallet and an adjustable open-end (crescent) wrench or 12mm metric wrench for tightening the column to the base. You'll also need a 40W max. reflector bulb for the built-in lamp. Oh, and rags for cleaning oil from pretty much everything. Operating this machine is as easy as any floor model you may remember from shop. I haven't tried tilting the table yet, but other controls are well marked and easy to understand including the depth stop. The motor runs quite smoothly and quietly, which is nice after using a portable variable-speed drill. I saw a review in Popular Mechanics that seemed to suggest the motor on this machine is underpowered, but from what I've tried so far there is no noticeable drag with up to 3/8" bits in hardwood even at the highest speed setting (which isn't recommended according to the speed chart included in the manual).
