I’m considering upgrading to an industrial rated machine. I need it to be about 6 feet tall, but I want as much rigidity and table strength and size as I can get. And I want it to be fairly quiet.
I’ve considered trying to retrofit a big cast iron table onto my current import, as most of my issues with it have to do with the table. But I’m fairly realistic about my ability to carry that out well. So...what’s your dream drill press? Wait wait...what’s MY dream drill press? It’s 6 feet tall, super heavy, has a really big rigid table on a rack and pinion for elevation. It’s quiet, rock solid, and roomy. What do you recommend?
