Thanks for pointing that out.
Can anyone recommend a decent drill press for around $200?

I am thinking about buying Delta DP 350 Drill Press.
Here is my concern:
according to the manual, the Delta variable transmission requires weekly

I believe that is the model that Lowe's was dumping a couple of months ago.
From what I understand the variable speed mechanism on those are plagued
with problems. Here's a recent thread on them:

There are also quite a few negative comments on Amazon.com:
