Default Drill Press: variable speed vs. multi-speed


"TheNewGuy" wrote in message

Hey all,

If one looks at the Delta 16-1/2 floor DPs, there is a LARGE (double!)
difference in price between the VS(17-925) and the multi-speed(17-965,
with 16 speeds).

Why?

Is there anything more substantial to the differences between these two
machines than this?

And 2ndly, from a woodworkers use POV, is there any practical
difference btwn. true VS and multi-speed? (Ease-of-use, yes...)

Thanks,
Chris


Chris, I have the 17-968. Variable speed, Large chuck, 0 runnout and it
works great. I would buy it again.

Dave
