Oh yea, the best thing about the drill is it's a FREEBIE

 

The price is right[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img][img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-cool.gif[/img]

 

oh, that's great then. we got our hot tub for the same price. it's older, smaller, 110V system, only 4 jets, not super-deep (compared to the newer stuff), BUT, if it wasn't free we wouldn't have one, and it works great.

while cleaning out my current shop, i found a small "drill press" that you mount an electric drill in, and then it's got a pull down lever to keep ya straight. kinda neat.

 

We received a spa like that[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img] Wish we still had it, it beats the $8,000 piece of garbage we have now[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif[/img]

I always thought about buying one of those drill press gadgets. Does it work as good as they made it out to[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]

 

i dunno, i got a full size drill press so i never really use this one. i can drill sorta straight freehand too. it does look pretty solid tho, but the base for the item you're drilling seems to be lacking. ALSO, i find it tricky on my big press to make the table plumb to the bit. the longer the hole you drill, the more you see where it's out of whack. but it's tough to get it perfect. when you install euro-hinges on cabinet doors they have to be drilled pretty precise with a Forstner bit.

 

Hey FBK! Just wanted to say hey. All this tool talk reminds me of a store I once visited in Vegas. Anyone ever heard of the Moby 2000?

No, I'm a geek.

Many people think I'm just a lowly lowly draftsman who doesn't know ****. Oh well. Let 'em think that. That how I catch them with their hand in the cookie jar up to their elbow.
