Nope, not at all. I'm using a MasterCraft drill press model # 55-5917-0.
It looks a lot like this unit:

d=845524441897707

It has speeds of 570, 900, 1390, 2090 and 3050 with a built-in lamp, very
useful. It is set at 3050 RPM right now and I've done many circuit boards
with it. The shaft rotates true and doesn't break any tiny carbide bits.
