There is a very long old thread on the Radial Drill press. ?I ended up with 2 and sold one to Michael Samarza. ?We both had work done on the machines by James Hurley.
Michael is out of town and gave me permission to post pictures of his machine. ?We are both very happy. ?I like this way better than a drill mill for woodworking. ?The powerlifting modification is great. ?Michael's does not have the VFD. ?My drill press will get a motor upgrade to 1 HP with VFD. ?
I think these are the ideal drill presses for woodworking, but just my own opinion.
Next on the agenda is the right accessory table and fence with stops and clamping (perhaps Kreg and/or Mac pneumatic or another alternative), dust collection, and under table storage.
