WEN 4208 8-Inch 5 Speed Drill Press Reviews

WEN 4208 8-Inch 5 Speed Drill Press | I just received this little press and already I love it. I haven't used it enough yet to speak to the torque but I am absolutely amazed at the accuracy. The spindle ranout well under .0005. In fact I thought my indicator was off the taper. The chuck ran out around .006 which isn't bad at all for a "kit" chuck. I had planned to buy a better chuck if the spindle ran out good and now I will.

I bought this little job with the variable speed sheeves for light work and it's going to be a real gem for that purpose. Maybe I was just lucky but the machine was finished well, packed with care, and stacks up nicely with machines costing a lot more.

I highly recommend it for light hobby work.

Got the the 8-inch 5 Speed drill press and am blown away by the quality. Given that it was only $80, I wasn't expecting much performance but got it anyway since I needed it for a small job so it didn't need to last and last. However, this performed fantastically well and far exceeded expectations. No complaints.
