I hope that this is not too far off topic. If it is, mods, please delete or move this thread.
Like many mini mill owners, I bought the mill because I was limited for space, and it was "a mill and a drill press all in one."
As we all learn, in stock form it's barely adequate at either job. And once converted to CNC, it's no longer usable as a drill press.
So I'm in the market for a drill press to take up that last few square feet of floorspace in my garage. And I'd like to know what others have and how they like them.
I'm leaning towards a floor press rather than a benchtop. I have more floorspace than bench space, and I'd like to have something that's not size limited.
I'm currently eyeing the Porter Cable that's available at Lowes. Shop PORTER-CABLE 15" Floor Drill Press with Laser Guide and Light at Lowes.com
Is this a good drill press? What other options are worth considering?
Cheers,
Frederic
