I've had this drill press for a year. I am embarrassed to say I've had it this long. I should have taken my lumps for the amount of money I spent and found a better press early on. Assembly was a nightmare. The head was not milled correctly for the post. It was seated only after dry ice and other means of persuasion and about a week of messing around. The table was not milled correctly. I could not drill a vertical hole until I hand ground the casting on the front-to-back table set/stop. The adjustment screw handles all broke in the first week and now I have 'dog bones' hanging everywhere. One of the lasers puts out a very fuzzy beam making 'spot-on' impossible. I have spent significantly more hours modifying, adjusting, adapting, disassembling (except for the head from the post), reading the manual and reassembling the press than drilling holes. No, not a good choice.
