Hi Folks, my budget-oriented, 25 year old benchtop drill press has seen better days and I want to replace it with a new floor model.
If you've bought a NEW "upscale" (not entry level) floor standing drill press, say in the near-to-higher than $1000 range in the last 10 years or so, would you mind replying here with the make and model, and your ownership experience both good and bad?
I have a line on a USA-built, factory remanufactured drill press (considered nowadays to be an institutional brand, not a consumer brand), and before I put down over double the price of the price shown above, I want to read real life experiences of the traditional woodworking brands and not just Amazon-esque reviews written one week after delivery.
Thanks,
Steve.
