I am in desperate need of machinery for the construction woodshop that has just been reopened after 7 years of neglect. It is light on needed materials and the current drill press is broken. It would cost more to have it repaired in San Francisco (Delta) than getting a new one. A drill press is a core piece of machinery for any shop. All of the projects in my construction technology program (woodshop and soon-to-be-added engineering section) require a floor drill press. Being forced to use hand tools reduces accuracy of specifications on our projects and promoting our program requires a professional setup with a floor based drill press.
