Interesting....

That's obviously the MLCS drill press table...even the MLCS "Free Shipping" graphic.

Many of us (including me) got this table for $29.95 awhile back. Mine was in decent shape and very much usable...I seem to remember others reporting that their's was not in such good shape and essentially stripped the hardware to make their own.

That looks like the same drill press table that Grizzly sells for $30 new (although $9.40 shipping makes it about the same but not cosmetically damaged...) and MLCS sells for $60.

Incidentally, I got one from Grizz and I was not very satisfied with it for $30.

I bought one of the ones from Grizzly and all I can say is "somebody" had a big case of "stupids" when they put the "Kit" together.

It requires three 8mm THRU knobs, one for the Stop Block and two for the Clamps that hold it onto the Metal Drill Press Table, plus two other Knobs to hold the Fence in place (they don't have to be thru knobs).

What they sent me was ONE thru knob and FOUR blind knobs! I called them and told them what had happened and they sent me another package of knobs.........same mix as the first package!
I'm STILL a thru Knob short of having enough to set up the Table as it should be.

So I guess I'll call them again and see if they'll send me another set of knobs, like the last set, then I'll have three thru Knobs and twelve blind Knobs (I need total of two blind Knobs).

What was wrong with the DP table you received? I was thinking of ordering one.

What was wrong with the DP table you received? I was thinking of ordering one.

There was a post about this thing - look up grizzly, drill press table, i think in bargain alerts, started by Rod Kirby also LCHIEN posted.

Anyway to sum up,
the stop mechanism didn't fit and the knob was wrong.
the fence was too tall and worse the lock knob was on top of the fence right where the elevation crank passed so in order to drill a 3/4" piece of material I had to raise it up 3 inches in order to be able to swing the elevation cranks.
And it was way too small (narrow) for my 15" DP - either can't use all the swing or the front support is too small depending on which way you put it.
Had to do a lot of reengineering to use it and still not happy.

Partly it's because my drill press is not a good match physically.

Want to buy mine? $20 plus shipping.

Hmmm, this looks like self advertising.

Well if it was it looks like it hurt more than it helped based on the comments given on this thread.

I got that table from Grizzly, and I am well satisfied with it. It is a rather compact table, primarily designed for smaller benchtop presses, and it serves me admirably in that capacity. I got a proper package, though I did have to put a washer under stop block retainer knob in order to be able to tighten the stop block fully. It is well-made, sturdy, and clamps to DP table securely. Real hard to beat for the price.

I have the one from MCLS and have been very happy with mine. I have a bench top drill press and the table has been very handy.

Yeah, I didn't notice the join date and number of posts by cali200 until after I posted my response....it does look a bit fishy.

Can you prove us wrong, cali?
