Description

Remember when power tools were actually powerful? WEN’s 12-inch swing, variable speed drill press with laser centering device, is a powerhouse for your shop. Packed with features that you’ll find in larger more industrial type drill presses. This bench-top, cast iron drill press has the power to drill through metal, wood and other materials. Max drill capacity is 5/8” in 1” thick cast iron. The variable speed feature allows you to target in the exact speed (infinitely from 580-3200 RPM) that works for your project. While you are working you simply move a lever and adjust the speed as needed. No pulleys and belts to change! Our design uses a mechanical variable speed which allows for the same power and torque through the entire speed range. A digital readout powered by LED’s displays the running speed. Constructed with a rigid frame consisting of cast iron: head, table, and base, ensures accurate holes. Its powerful induction motor features ball bearings for an extended life and it all comes together with smooth and balanced performance even at high speeds. The 5/8” chuck with MT2 spindle taper gives you versatility with a variety of bits and features on-board chuck key storage, so you never have to hunt around for it. Worktable bevels 45° left and right for those tricky operations for the perfect right angles consistently. Base has predrilled holes for mounting onto a bench or work stand. Slotted table allows for mounting clamps and vises for effective mounting. The X-pattern laser locks-on to your drill points saving on guesswork and sparing expensive materials. A versatile and valuable tool for any shop especially when you expand its range of use with optional accessories such as mortising attachments, drum sanders, circle cutters, etc. Since 1951, WEN has proudly produced innovative powered tools focused on value delivering meaningful features that will help you complete and enjoy the work as much as the project. Remember when you could drill with laser-precision? Remember WEN.

  • How did I live without it??
Size: 5-Amp Motor
What a GREAT addition to my room full of junk and power tools... This drill press is a BEAST... It's twice the size of my little old SKIL, which you can see in the pictures... The SKIL did a good job for me, but I outgrew it... Once I found out that drill presses with variable speed existed, IT WAS ON!!! I had to have one... No more messing with loosening the motor and sticking my fingers into the belt & pulleys... That had gotten old a long time ago... I've only had it for a few days now... I love it... It'll probably be the last drill press I'll ever need to buy... ACCURACY: Seems to be accurate, as the tip of the drill bit hits right where the lasers cross... I don't have a dial indicator to check the runout, but I'm sure it will serve me just fine... I'm not running a machine shop, and I don't need accuracies down to the thousandths of an inch... EASY TO ASSEMBLE: No, not entirely... But I was doing a couple other things during the process, like drinkin' beer, and helping my buddy with his trailer hitch... The column-to-base bolts call for a 16mm wrench... I bought a whole set of ratchet wrenches a couple years ago, but there was NO 16mm in there... I found a socket to fit, 5/8" I think... The hardest part of the assembly was lifting the head up onto the column... It's quite heavy and unbalanced... A second pair of hands would've been a plus... My trailer hitch buddy had already left... VALUE FOR MONEY: I shopped around 4-5 online sites for 3 weeks, and I kinda felt like I was being "spyed upon"... It seemed to me that they were bidding amongst each other for my money... The prices quoted for this machine on different sites kept fluctuating every couple days... It was truly weird... I think I'm gonna buy a VPN next... But anyway, for all the features this machine has, I think it's worth every bit of what I paid for it... It TOWERS over my old drill press, so I don't have to squat down or sit to use it... It's REAL good looking, like the STAR of my workshop... The table with the extension that swivels and bevels adds ALOT to the package... The swivel feature is kinda messed up, as it relates to that rack gear on the side of the column... The rack gear ends just ride in the top (orange) and bottom collars, and can get bound up if not guided along during swivel... (??Did that come out right??) And, of course, like a kid in a toy store, I had to open the lid on top to watch how the variable speed worked... It's pretty neat... But, the MOST BRILLIANT part of the entire design of the machine is... ...wait for it... ...you'll never believe it over everything else I mentioned... THE CHUCK KEY itself gets 6 out of 5 stars for it's design... Sticking out from the center of the key is a small pin with a spring behind it... It is IMPOSSIBLE to forget the chuck key and turn the power switch ON... That sprung pin pushes the key out of the chuck... I don't know if this design has been around for a while, as this is the 1st drill press I've bought in a LONG time... This chuck key design should've been implemented on ALL styles of chucks for the last 50 years... ABSOLUTELY BRILLIANT!!! YES to "would buy again"... And Again, And Again, if needed... Nice machine for an novice to half-pro environment... It might last in a PRO environment (machine shop) if taken care of... It's really quite the nice machine... Thanx WEN, and Thanx Amazon... GOOD DAY... ... show more

  • Recommend to friends... Great quality for price.
Size: 5-Amp Motor
I'm glad I read other model reviews prior to purchasing. This features LIGHT that is well placed to illuminate my work. The table cranks up and down for dialed-in precision, the laser was spot-on out of the box. Good power, and the Continuous Speed Control comes in very handy when drilling between hardwoods, softwoods, and metals, within one project like I recently built. The base, shaft, motor assembly, quill & chuck are all good quality. The table is the only negative as paint quality and machining could be improved, but as I built a table and fence system to attach, really not a problem. The table is flat and true. One tip, there are 3 long handles, and 1 short. I installed one long handle for speed control which gives more leverage for changing speeds and shorter one installed on 2nd location of drill press. I like the avaliable distance between chuck and bottomed out lowered table. Overall great quality for price. Recommended to my friends. ... show more

  • Good Value for the Price
Size: 5-Amp Motor
This is a good general purpose, light/medium duty drill press. It was easy to assemble and I find it to be well built. I'm now using it in my home woodworking shop. Some reviewers has mentioned what they considered to be excessive chuck run out. That may be a luck of the draw thing, I bought the WEN with intent to upgrade the chuck. To this point however, I find run out to be minimal. Drilling consistent, accurately centered holes is a piece of cake. At some point I'll build, or buy an auxiliary table, but other than that, I feel no need to upgrade anything on the machine. I do have a couple minor quibbles with the machine: First, I wish the motor had bit more power. To be fair though, the only time it's struggled was when I was using a 1.5" Forstner bit to bore into end-grain of well seasoned live oak. Even then, slow and easy did the job and did it well. My other very minor complaint is that I find the variable speed control lever to be overly stiff. It does however, work well and once set, the speed adjustment doesn't drift. I like this drill press. It's proving itself to be the right machine for my workshop. I'm happy. ... show more
