1.		DELTA DP300L 12-Inch TwinLaser Crosshair Drill Press from Delta Price: $199.99 Customer Review: Nice machine for the $$$. As other reviews have mentioned, the outer package doesn't hold up well in shipping. Product came undamaged. Set up was easy. The machine has minimal quill runout at full extention. Changing speeds is relativly easy. Cuts through 1" steel with no problems. Work table is... more info	Customer Rating: 4.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information


2.		Milescraft 1097 Rotary Tool Drill Press Stand from Milescraft Inc. Price: $34.99 Customer Review: I have been trying to drill polished rocks for quite some time....although, not perfect, this is an excellent tool. Suggestion: Drill before polishing...then you don't have a lot of time and effort in the stone if it breaks while drilling ...which happens at least 20% of the time.

3.		Jet JDP-12 12-Inch Drill Press with Digital Readout from JET Price: $299.99 Customer Review: I received my drill press via UPS but the box was badly beaten and looked like it had been opened and re-opened several times. After re-opening the box it appeared that this drill was partially assembled at one time so that saved a few minutes. The digital readout and laser work fine and I do like... more info	Customer Rating: 3.5 / 5.0 Click here for more information


4.		Wolfcraft 4525 Drill Guide Attachment for 1/4-Inch or 3/8-Inch Drills from Wolfcraft Price: $27.95 Customer Review: Have had this drill guide for over 15 years. This is my third one, as the first two got bent out of shape, the aluminium crossbar was malleable if you use too large a drill bit such as a hole saw or spade bit. It is really for light duty drilling only. There is also the hassle having to remove a... more info	Customer Rating: 3.5 / 5.0 Click here for more information


5.		Northern Industrial Mini Drill Press - 5-Speed, 1/3 HP from Northern Industrial Tools Price: $79.99 Customer Review: I had a rear wheel hub for an XJ-6 where the screw-in lug studs had loosened. My way of fixing the problem was to ream the holes for normal pressed-in studs, like most cars have. I needed very precise holes to make the thing work. Instead of trusting the job to someone else, I opted to buy an... more info	Customer Rating: 5.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information


6.		Factory-Reconditioned Skil 3320-01-RT 3.2 Amp 10-Inch Drill Press from Skil Price: $89.99 Customer Review: Well, I was one of the lucky ones. Mine arrived with the package a mess but all pieces present. It assembled easily and runs smoothly. This is a "You get what you pay for" item. It is good value for the price but for better precision, buy a more expensive unit.	Customer Rating: 3.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information


7.		DELTA 17-950L 16.5-Inch TwinLaser Crosshair Drill Press from Delta Price: $449.99 Customer Review: I had intended to purchase a metal work drill but when I looked for the Delta metalworking version found that they were not avalable and no one could tell me when they would be avalable I purchased the wood working model. The drill is well put together and machineing is excellent, as one would... more info	Customer Rating: 4.5 / 5.0 Click here for more information


8.		Rockler Drill Guide Kit from Rockler Price: $15.99 Customer Review: This little thing works just as it should. Very simple concept yet works wonderfully. This saved me a fortune on those crazy drill attachments that probably wouldn't have worked anyway. I'm looking forward to building a rock solid media cabinet to match the new TV that arrived the same day!	Customer Rating: 5.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information


9.		Shop Fox W1667 1/2 HP 8-1/2-Inch Bench-Top Oscillating Drill Press by Chad Mitchell Price: $121.33 Customer Review: I also bought this over the summer after buying a Grizzly Band saw (BTW, I really enjoy the band saw) but after putting this thing together and putting a 1/2 " flat hole bit to create a simple hole in a 1.5 " thick oak, the bit would stop with the slightest pressure as if it can't do it. Come on,... more info	Customer Rating: 2.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information


10.		RIKON 30-140 Bench Top Radial Drill Press from Rikon Price: $279.99 Customer Review: The drill press arrived in a damaged box. The press is very solid and heavy, and in shipping the cardboard box and packing did not hold up. Two parts were damaged. The Rikon Company sent out two new parts without hesitation. Great customer service. The drill press works like a charm, no complaints.... more info	Customer Rating: 4.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information


11.		Ridgid DP1550 Drill Press, 15-Inch from Ridgid Price: $299.00 Customer Review: Assembly was easy, with clear directions and well machined parts. Very few steps to get it assemled and working correctly. Mine was square right out of the box. I set the speed for 1750 rpm, which works great for woodworking. The belts are so smooth, and the motor is whisper quiet. Even my... more info	Customer Rating: 4.5 / 5.0 Click here for more information


12.		Hitachi B13F 10-Inch Benchtop Drill Press with Laser from Hitachi Price: $159.99 Customer Review: Ten years ago, you could always count on Hitachi to produce a solid, percision, dependable product, but then they moved their factory to China, where there is NO quality control no matter what Hitachi claims. I have learned the hard way from this drill press and one of their compound miter saws... more info	Customer Rating: 2.5 / 5.0 Click here for more information


13.		DELTA 20-619 6-Inch Drill Press Vise from Delta Price: $37.99 Customer Review: THE QUALITY OF THIS VISE IS GOOD, HOWEVER YOU WOULD THINK SINCE IT'S A DELTA, AND MY DRILL PRESS IS A DELTA, THEY WOULD BE 100% COMPATIBLE! THEY ARE NOT. YOU WILL NEED THIS VISE, BUT WILL FIND THAT IN SOME APPLICATIONS THE SLOTS DO NOT MATCH THE DRILL PRESS. USING A WIDE-JAW... more info	Customer Rating: 4.5 / 5.0 Click here for more information

15.		Powermatic PM2800 1792800 18-Inch Variable Speed Drill Press from Powermatic Price: $899.99 Customer Review: I read a bunch of reviews of this drill press online and hesitated to buy it because of some that were negative. I don't know what the negative reviewers were complaining about, as this thing is quite finely engineered. It went together quickly and easily, and it works perfectly. I did not even have... more info	Customer Rating: 5.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information


16.		Shop Fox W1668 3/4 HP 13-Inch Bench-Top Drill Press from SHOP FOX Price: $240.00 Customer Review: What little I have used this drill press so far, I have been impressed with its construction, the ease of assembly, and the detail built into it. I'm very happy with it.	Customer Rating: 3.5 / 5.0 Click here for more information


17.		JET 354170/JDP-20MF 20-Inch Floor Drill Press from WMH Tool Group Price: $729.10 Customer Review: I bought this drill press for my husband and he loves it. He researched several brands and models and narrowed it down to this one and one that had a variable speed for much more money. He was looking for a heavy duty floor drill press that would handle pretty thick steel. PROS - large base for... more info	Customer Rating: 5.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information


18.		DELTA DP350 Shopmaster 1/3HP 12-Inch Bench Drill Press from Delta Price: $236.55 Customer Review: I purchased the Delta DP350 in 2003 and am still using it in 2010. The variable speed option is very convenient, and the drill is heavy enough to be sturdy, but not so heavy to be unmanageable. For the price, I am satisfied with it, but as I use it more, I've become aware of its shortcomings.more info	Customer Rating: 3.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information

20.		DELTA 17-959L 17-Inch Laser Crosshair Drill Press from Delta Price: $5.80 Customer Review: I've had this for just over a year and am pleased with it. It is not perfect as others have stated, but for the $ it is a good drill press for a home shop. It is not a $2000 production level drill press so I think some of the criticism here of this is unwarranted: if you expect the Ferrari of drill... more info	Customer Rating: 4.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information
