Drill Press Measurement??
When they say a 10" drill press or a 15" or 20", etc., what is that
measuring? Is that the maximum distance between the drill chuck and the table?? Thanks! |

Believe that it is usually the largest diameter that it can drill to the center of, in other words, twice the distance from the column to the chuck. --Glenn Lyford |

Distance from the center of the quill to the outside of the post. Sometimes
the post diameter is included. A 12" x 3" might mean 12" radial distance, and a 3" post. I think. It's been over five minutes, so who knows? Don't trust us old farts without checking it out.

It's the part of the drillpress that goes up and down, carrying the chuck. --Glenn Lyford |

It is better to have known it and forgot it than to have never known. |

It is better to have known it and forgot it than to have never known. just watch out if they say the drill has an 17 inch column. That would be the diameter of the column of a radial arm drill. A drill with an 11 inch column would stand about 12 feet tall. G John |

G Gunner "Pax Americana is a philosophy. Hardly an empire. Making sure other people play nice and dont kill each other (and us) off in job lots is hardly empire building, particularly when you give them self determination under "play nice" rules. Think of it as having your older brother knock the **** out of you for torturing the cat." Gunner |
