[QUOTE="blacksheep10, post: 684203, member: 13"] I have a really big, ****ing badass drill press. It happens to be a mill part of the time as well. Mainly, when I need a pattern of holes, I can start at one, jog over, drill, jog over, drill etc. Mine came with 5 collets, not standard stuff but whatever, drill chuck in one, 3/4 in one, 5/8,1/2,3/8, 1/4" collet sits to side and can be put in. I clearance 14b yokes for nuts on the backside, enlarge one side of a hole, cut slots, face a little, even made a deal to face 14B covers after welding. It's a cool tool like 13 times a year. Otherwise it sits. Mine's 3 hp 3 phase, I put a static on it and I've never needed anywhere near 2 hp apparently. I have an enco vise and hold down set. That's about it. I wish my lathe were better. It sucks [/QUOTE]
