So as I mentioned I picked up a new built hard drill press from Amazon it was cheap head the throw I wanted was a bench top unit variable speed blah blah blah basically hit all the features I wanted and again I've been kicking myself in the butt ever since I missed picking up the Ryobi DP121L When home depot was clearancing them.
One thing I found about the built hard is that it is a bit taller than I expected so I have a couple of options.
If I want to go with a Flip-top stand I will have to make the stand taller than I wanted which would put the operational height of the drill press higher than I really want to put up with.
Another option with the Flip-top stand is to cut down the column by about 4" which after assembling this thing really should be a non issue. I guess I could have cut down the northern tool drill press and not spent any money but I was scared of roaming the warm gear for the left and lower of the table.
If I do that that means I will lose the storage cabinet that I have right now for the mortgaging machine that also doubles up as storage for all of my finishing supplies.
Another option is to build a proper rowing cabinet To mount this drill press on that will have drawers for all of my drawing accessories and my handheld power drills..
I am honestly not sure which would be the best route to go but I'm leaning somewhat heavily towards a rolling storage cabinet.
