Re: which drill press?

2006-01-17 by dl5012

Hi Don,

I bought a $30 drill press stand for Dremel type tools from Jameco 
Electronics (jameco.com).  It has a bit of runout, but it's fine with 
a little pilot hole.

I buy carbide bits on eBay.  Usually 50 for $25 (including shipping).  
I bought 3 of the assortments from Harbor Freight and the assortment 
left me wanting (too many small sizes) and half of the bits were for 
routing.  Unlike Harbor Freight, bit sizes are listed on eBay, so you 
know exactly what you're buying.

Regards,
Dennis
