Factors to consider when choosing a drill press

 

 

 


choose your plan

Speed

• Speed adjustment
Always remember, that a drill that allows various speed adjustment is better than one with a fixed speed. Speed is vital as it allows you to work effectively, and a single speed drill press might result in damage. For instance, some type of wood might burn if you are drilling with a speedy drill, hence, for such wood you need to reduce the speed.

Power

• Horsepower
Prior to the selection of any tabletop drill press, examine its horsepower. Similar to other electrical tools, the horsepower determines the performance of a drill press. If you will be using your drill press for just making holes on wood, less horsepower is OK.

Size

• The drill press size
Among the most important aspects to consider is size. So, instead of buying a drill of any size, buy one that fits your project requirements. For example, the 16-inch press is capable and more convenient for drilling an 8-inch hole on its edge.

Model

• Type/ model of the drill press
The model of a drill is also an aspect to put into consideration. Some models are adaptable, such as floor model drill. You can raise it to upper and lower directions. On the contrary, some models are fixed.

Acc.

• Associated accessories
It is advisable you go for a drill press that comes with accessories. In some cases, you may get an effective drill that is equipped with important accessories. However, the tool should be compatible with accessories for it to be useful after upgrades.

Srv.

• Serviceability
The routine maintenance of your tool should be fast and easier. Unfortunately, it is not all manufacturers who have replacement parts for the various models readily available. Also, some manufacturers require their tools to be serviced by experts. This means you will be incurring a lot of money when replacing some parts. You definitely want to consider serviceability when picking a drill press.
