Description

A drill press is a free-standing power tool with a vertical sliding spindle that carries a chuck for drilling. The spindle, or "quill" is moved up and down manually by a wheel or handle to the side. The workpiece is supported by a horizontal table with adjustable height. Workpieces are clamped down to the table or held in a vise while they are drilled to varying diameters, generally ranging from 1/16" up to 3/4".
