Would love to see a 17” or 20” version of this. Glad to see someone’s making a more affordable variable speed DP. Great review, thank you.

I bought one when it was on sale also. I still need to open the box 😂 it’s nice finally seeing a video of it though

Now you can see how a CVT (Continuous Varible Transmission) works or at least the idea of it... Great video and nicely detailed, you have convinced me to purchase this drill press! Thank you!

Glad it helped! Yes, I didn't recognize that it was a CVT when I was making the video LOL But just like in a car, or in a side-by-side or UTV, snowmobile or four-wheeler. I haven't used this a ton, but it does work well every time I need it to. Really like the LED light and the easy adjustability 👍

Thx for the review. It looks like the speed adjustment is a take on a CVT transmission concept that you see on many ATV quads, cars and mini bikes. It makes me want to forehead palm my head 🤦with a “Doh! why didn’t I think of that!” Lol

Nice thorough review! I just became aware of the 12" in and came upon your video (can't find any real video reviews out there) - this was very helpful in helping me decide to purchase - thanks!

Thank you for this helpful review! I have been excited to pick one of these up, and your review confirmed that it is a good choice. Super helpful.

The speed adjustment lever on mine is very stiff. Is this normal for everyone else? Otherwise I love it.

Have you or perhaps can you measure spindle runout of the MT2 arbor ? Not with the drill chuck in place ? want to know if its at least reasonable ... 0.003" ish or less would be good .. but would like to know what yours measures .. ( no i dont wat a mill / drill at this time for all of you that are wanting to say that )

Thank you for review! Do you know how much quill travel ? I can’t find this information on manual and in the specs.

@anesthesiadreamin Ай бұрын

Great question! I had to measure it, it's only 3 1/8 in. And that's with all the stops backed off both ways

@@anesthesiadreamin thank you very much for your fast response! I tried to contact with HB customer service, product support, and my question surprised them. After 7 minutes of waiting they are told me that 3.2 inch. As for me 3 inches not too much for $300 drill press, but better than 2 inch on most of inexpensive drills. I decided to buy WEN 1412t since this one cost me (today) $270 (with 10% discount). All the best

How tall is it and how wide

Interesting that the HF website does not list those specifications. Usually they’re pretty good at listing all the measurements. Other than that the drill table is 9 1/2” square and it weighs 82lbs assembled, they don’t list any other specs. I’m kinda curious myself.
