Asa side note... I guess this makes me wonder why bench top drill press
machines (hobbyist size) have 1/3 or 1/4 HP motors and a chuck that will
hold 1/2" diameter round shak tooling. I guess some folks are working in
Balsa wood, styrofoam and hardened soap bubbles.


Clearly they're being paid off by the motor manufacturers to drum up
more business by creating abnormal amounts of magic white smoke.
