Reasonable car with one big disadvantage.

My needs for this are very simple, I just drill a lot of holes in wood and plastic. It has a setting to control drilling depth and that was the problem. This is a ring marked with a set screw of varying depths. The device that was delivered to me had no set screw. I called the manufacturer and they immediately sent me a screw. However, this did not solve the problem as the reason for the lack of a set screw was that the hole for that screw was unthreaded. This worries me a lot now because it…

Pros
  • Great for me
Cons
  • disappears

Have been using this drill for many months now. I can't express how much I love this! It's such a nice little size and it's really solid metal construction. The only limitation I've found is that the drill can only be lowered an inch. But my workaround for this is to lower the drill bit as far as you can (best buy a long bit bit) and then, after you've started drilling, raise your object to drill through a thicker piece.

Pros
  • Best in its niche
Cons
  • Will be added later

Functionally good, fit mediocre.

First, the drill press works well. As mentioned in another poster I was surprised that it has a speed controller and from low speed it can't even rotate the cartridge. (If you start it up fast and then slow it down, it keeps running, but low-speed performance is almost zero.) But it gave me good control over the accuracy of drilling holes in a 1/8-inch aluminum shank. I would call it sloppy or maybe "fit and finish". First the table was covered with oil. I understand the oil is part of the…

Pros
  • Great price
Cons
  • Big and bulky
