Pros & Cons

Update Pros and Cons

The AI used to provide these results are constantly improving. These results might change.

Pros

Excellent for exacting work like drilling jewelry items, tiny crafts, etc. Small enough to do anything i would need to, and small enough to not be obtrusive. Good for hobbyists and for other small drilling jobs.

Motor is high speed, quiet enough with a three step pulley. Variable speed knob works very smoothly on my machine. Included was three allen wrenches, one chuck key, and one extra silicone drive belt.

Cute litle drill press. Worked very well. It is very compact. I love it and think that it’s exactly as advertised.

Looks very repairable and maintainable, motor even has replaceable brushes.

Cons

Used it once, stopped working on the second try. The spindle was rusted along with the spring and the up/down cylinder. Chuck is friction fit to drive shaft rather than threaded.

The press drilled perfect holes without the bit walking or having excessive wobble.

One of the 1/4 holes i drilled was in a piece of bass wood edge on with part of the bit cutting out the side.

Price

For the price works great so far

Shipping

They promptly sent me a new replacement drill press.

Packaging/appearance

Upon opening the box i discovered most of the parts and the manual were covered with an oily goo.

There were no flaws in the packaging and the often commented broken plastic top did not appear in this order, the top was whole... Read More

The weak link is surely the dinky drive belt (actually a urethane o-ring), but they included a spare in the box and (surprising... Read More
