I feel that Dremel tools have way too much spindle runout for PCB
work. The Dremel drill press stand is somewhat flimsy and makes it
even worse. Several years ago I bought a KBC Model CBD-6-SP high speed
drill press which works great. They are priced at $145.00 (USD) I use
carbide drills with this machine and have never broken a bit while
drilling although I have broken several bits due to careless handling.
Anyone considering purchasing a manual drilling unit should take a
look at this drill press.
