@EBCBguitars Thanks, man! What tasks in your builds do you use the drill press for?

Anything from using the hole saws in the press for drilling sound holes or drilling the holes for the machine heads as seen in your video, pretty much anything that needs to be drilled, great for metal too!

I had bought an older model press at harbor freight,while i was drilling a second hole the chuck fell off.i just now after a year of sitting have been trying to find a different chuck to put on it.

I bought several of their presses and I have to say I was impressed. For the $ you can’t beat the quality/cost ratio. I have a floor standing model that I use that I picked up for less than half what most others charge. I love it.

Thats why you spend the extra 10 bucks for free replacement.

@smellslike1974
Yes and they have a $10 fee you can pay. They give you a receipt for free replacement. You call the number, or register it online. That way if you have a problem with something you buy. You can take it back, and get a brand new one no questions asked. You would have got a new drill press (A correctly built one) a year ago.
