I am looking for a relatively basic drill press to enable me to
drill
straight holes in wood and to use as a mortising machine. Nothing
too
fancy. I saw the Ryobi DP101 at Home Depot for $99...anyone have
any
experience with it?
I've had one for about two years now and am very happy with it. I
bought the floor model during a sale, so got it all assembled for
about $60, which seemed like a good deal. No problem with runout,
it's drilled through everything I've attemped to make a hole in. I
added a vice and a fence made from a chunk of aluminum and don't
think I need anything more.
I don't think the generic morising attachments will fit it either,
but I always cut mine with a router anyway.
