A drill press is a tool used for drilling holes in various materials, but let's be real, you're probably here because you want to make a hole in something, anything, everything.
Because you clearly need a hobby, and what better hobby than making holes in things?
Just put the bit in the press, turn the handle, and voila! You'll be the proud owner of a perfectly round hole. Don't try this with a hammer, trust us on that.
No, but you can use it for almost everything. Except for that one thing you can't, don't ask why, just don't.
Drill Press Parts for more information.
A part that makes your drill press go from 0-100 in 5 seconds, but let's be real, you're probably just looking for the chuck key.
A tool used to tighten the chuck (see what we did there?). It's like a key, but for your drill press. Don't confuse it with a key to a house, that's just a real key.
Collets and Stuff for more information.
A thingy that holds your drill bit in place. It's like a seat for your drill bit, but not like a seat for your drill press, because that would be weird.
More about Collets and Other Things that go with them.
Other things like, well, everything else. Like the thing that holds the other thing, and the thing that makes the other thing go.
More about Other Things and Other Things that go with other things.
Other things and other things are just that, other things. But if you want to know more, just ask, and we'll tell you more.
