Ok, I have rougly $300 from some left over bday cash/expense reports to throw at a "tool" for my garage. I was thinking a drill press would be good for the 'next in line' list.
Can you guys make a suggestion or two on a good quality press that I will be happy with and durable enough to last several years in this price range? I dont have a sturdy table top to mount it on, but am planning on building one over the winter, so I definitely want a table top unit, not floor standing.
I don't know the first thing to look for when purchasing a press.
For instance, if I were looking at a car, I'd want power windows, cruise control, automatic seats, that type of stuff.
What are the absolute "amenities/luxuries" to look for in a press when selecting one?
Links to particular models would be great at say...Home Depot, Lowes, Sears, etc... local stores that I can go buy at.
Thanks,
