Anybody selling a drill press?

Jan 14, 2025, 10:09 AM

I'm looking for a drill press. I want to upgrade my current drill press.


Thanks

I bet Lowes and Home Depot have some options

I'm looking for a used drill press.

That way I can save money on said drill press.

You want to upgrade your used drill press with another used drill press?

2025 orange level member flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up


Somewhat

I want to update my used 8" drill press to a used 12-15" drill press.

Are you sure one of these won't better suit your needs?

My goals for this year are to make my shop easier to use by reconfiguring the workflow to fit my projects and opening an Etsy store to support my hobby.

I've already almost completed the shop workflow. Cleaned out the entire area, added base cabinets to an 8-foot workspace for tabletop tools, and cabinets, and upgraded the miter station, moved my table saw and band saw location.

Now I'm working on the tools. Just sold an old lathe I never used, a 9-inch bandsaw, and I will get rid of my 8-inch drill press once a larger one is acquired. All this is to help my workflow increase so that I can actually make things instead of moving things around to make things.

I also bought an oscillating spindle sander. I should have done that years ago.

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

I should have gotten the spindle sander when I got the belt/disk combo...

Jan 14, 2025, 10:34 AM

that is still in the #### box. Also didn't pay attention that you, somebody who actaully uses such tools, posted and just went for the joke. Let me or Father G know if you are still looking in the spring. The Greenville Woodworkers guild has a HUGE tool sale twice a year, can probably pick up one there.

badge-donor-05yr.jpgringofhonor-aero.jpg flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

Hoping to find one on the facebook market before then

but I'll let you know.


Missed on a 12" Delta and a 15" Grizzly last week.

badge-donor-05yr.jpgringofhonor-aero.jpg flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

I don't. I've looked at them, but can't figure out a good reason

1

Jan 14, 2025, 10:40 AM

to get one.

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

I got this one for free from a friend with the idea of restoring it for content.

1

Jan 14, 2025, 10:43 AM

I think it is too big for my space though. Couple that with not really knowing HOW to restore it I figure I need to just get rid of it.

badge-donor-05yr.jpgringofhonor-aero.jpg flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

Drill press? I don't have a drill press. Good luck finding a drill press!***

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

I am confident that you'll find a drill press.

2

Jan 14, 2025, 1:34 PM

Because you're looking for a drill press. You might have still found a drill press even if you weren't looking for a drill press, but the odds of finding a drill press dramatically increase by actively looking for a drill press.

For the 25-50 times you'll actually use it

Surprisingly, I use it frequently

I may go the new route, but there's something I like about a good used machine. I feel like it has a story.

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

I know exactly what you mean about things having a story.


Jan 14, 2025, 2:11 PM

I won't even bother to try and negotiate on a used purchase especially if I find out the item I'm buying was used in a horrific murder.

ringofhonor-rhtig.jpg flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up


What if it was just a very grisly justifiable homicide?***


Jan 14, 2025, 2:14 PM



badge-donor-05yr.jpgringofhonor-aero.jpg flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

Depends.

Jan 14, 2025, 4:53 PM

I'd probably still buy it if it was Stacey Champagne's husband selling it.

I grabbed one of those WEN ones from Amazon.

It's been pretty dang good... and I pride my self in buying old heavy american iron tools and what-not, but I can't complain.

It's pretty good for a Chi-Com POS.

I've had it for 5 years and use it regularly.

a few years back. $50 cash.

The girl that sold it to me probably needed money for drugs, but maybe it was for something positive, like a trip to planned parenthood.
