  • Mix of value, features, and quality
Size: 12" Drill Press
This drill press offers plenty of value and features for the price. Shipping was fast, and the unit was well packaged with plenty of foam and a double corrugated box. Setup was quick and easy. It is a tall unit (which means plenty of vertical work space), so be sure to bolt it down. Motor seems plenty powerful. As another reviewer mentioned, the flat table is better suited for clamping materials or bolting a vise compared to similar products. Once the work piece is setup and aligned with the chuck, the table locks firmly into place. The speed adjustment lever works well and is very user friendly. This is a significant improvement over the old method on drill presses from the past where the user needed to manually move the belts on the pulleys to change the drive ratio / speed. The switches, safety stop and speed indicator seem higher quality than competitors in it's class. One thing to consider, though the depth adjustment knob featured on this model is a faster, accurate, and better solution than the threaded rod and nut limiter found on most drill presses, it does not allow for locking the quill in a down position. Overall, for the price, I highly recommend it. ... show more

  • Don't think, GET This
Size: 12" Drill Press
This Press screams quality and features. After using a Ryobi Drill press for over 20 years it finally gave up the ghost last sunday. I was already thinking about upgrading the chuck and changed the belt twice. One of the spindles cracked. It served me well but realized I deserved something better. I went on Youtube looked at the comparison videos and out of all the drill presses I chose Buck Tools. I have one of their combo belt disc sanders wish is rock solid so I was familiar with the brand. The deciding factor beside the build quality it gives you almost 2" more length at the lowest table position. Also the table does not have the underneath boarder around the edge that makes clamping awkward. The lazer is dead accurate. I have used and still do all the big box brands Ridgid, Dewalt ,Makita , Milwauke, and Harbor Freight . Trust me when I tell you the build on this beast is no joke. I never leave reviews but if your looking for a great drill press at an unbelievable price , you can't go wrong. It is very heavy in the box almsot 100lbs, but assembly was a breeze. Super fast shipping I ordered it on sunday and it arrived on tuesday. It said delivery between June 29 and July 1. I started lifting weights and doing pushups to get ready and when I saw it my job, I was like oh man how am I gonna do this? I got some straps from home depot pushed it to the end of the loading dock lifted it up put it in the back seat . Got it home put it on hand truck got in the side door got in front of it walked it down the stairs. Once unpacked it is managable. It advises 2 people to lift it on the pedestal for safety, however I was able to do it my self. Fantastic piece I can't wait to put it through its paces. Almost forgot digital read out and speed is adjustable via a lever. no more loosening and re tension the motor to change the belt. My Ryobi died as it wanted me to get something better (lol) ... show more

  • Pretty good for the price
Size: 12" Drill Press
This unit is a pretty solid unit and will work well for the home DIY projects. It is easy to assemble just assemble it close to where you are going to put it because it is on the heavy side. The pros... A really good motor which gives it plenty of power. The laser was spot on out of the box and no adjustments were needed. The work light puts light exactly where you want it. For less then 300 bucks it is hard to beat. The variable speed control lever is awesome. You can easily adjust the RPMs to get to the speed you need based on the material you are working with. The digital display is great. The cons. The table, it is a bit small and round would be better then square. The Jacobs key is located behind the spindles and that makes it harder to grab or put away easily. The height of the unit is almost 40 inches tall, so its a bit big to sit on a work bench but it does put what you are working on pretty much just below eye level. All in all this has been a good drill thus far been a good buy and i would recommend it ... show more

  • Great value for an excellent power tool!
Size: 12" Drill Press
Tons of features - laser drilling guide, work light, rack and pinion table height adjustment, tilting table, variable speed lever, all-stop button, digital speed display, quiet, quality materials and construction and gobs of power make this drill press very productive and a blast to use. Setup was simple and intuitive. Power head is quite heavy; best to have helper to attach it to stand. ... show more

  • Durable but need better instructions
Durable construction. This unit is very smooth whether using as a drill press or lathe. Nice power while still obtaining a quiet operation. The midi lathe operation is very nice for anyone from the amateur enthusiast to mid level pro. Although it has a sturdy build it is still light enough to be moved around the shop. The only draw back i can find after two months of use it the drill table. It seems to be offset to one side by 1/4 inch and is not centered on the chuck. The laser centering light is a nice touch except when you lower the drill to the working platform. The chuck blocks the light from the work surface. ... show more

  • Incredible quality for the price
Size: 12" Drill Press
I looked at a number of comparisons between this drill press and the similarly specification Wen model. I am so glad I went with this model. The machining on all the cast pieces is clean and even with no rough unfinished edges. I like the flat, thin edge of the table for easy work clamping. The lever operated speed changes with digital rpm readout is a welcome upgrade from my old press that required manual belt manipulation to alter speed. Theoretically you could change it, but it took so long change that for years I just drilled every hole at a medium speed. The chuck has a good solid feel and seems more than adequate for an included part. Considering a “professional” chuck would be roughly the price of this entire drill press I’ll stick with the stock model. I’m saving my most incredible pleasant surprise for last. I would have been happy with a couple thousandths of runout at this price point but when I put a dial indicator on the mounted chuck and rotated it throughout a full 360 degree rotation the needle didn’t even move. I couldn’t be happier with this purchase. Highly recommended! ... show more
