I did not know about the sander bit. That's pretty damn cool.

Don't forget that you can also use the drill press for drilling repeated angled holes accurately, maybe for making hooks (angled dowels in wall plate)
I've also used mine as a mini lathe, turning small disks etc, just a nut and bolt through the work, and make sure to rest the tools somewhere while cutting.
And here's a tip if you're always losing the chuck key, attach a neodymium magnet to the side ;)

Great video. I was just teaching drill press safety to my middle school technology and engineering class...looks like they will get to see this video tomorrow! Thanks!

I like you're "Mere-mini" series. While they cover the basics, I still tend to learn something from it. I do CAD drafting for a millwork company and having knowledge of how woodworking is actually done is so valuable.  Thanks for doing what you do!

That drum-sander thing was new to me. Thank you for the idea!

Thanks for covering these basics, Steve!  For those of us who are new to the hobby, they can be really helpful.  I have the exact same drill press as you, and didn't even realize it had a depth stop!

I never thought I would use it as much as I have when I was thinking about buying one. On the top 5 most used tools in my shop.

First thing to do when you get a drill press is wipe some wax on the pole so it doesn't get covered with rust like 99% of them are after about a year.

Also when you tighten you bits on the chuck, you need to use the three holes becaus each of this hole makes your bit straight in the chuck so that way your bit won't wabble when you drill.

Wow, I have a similar Ryobi drill press and I feel like I was just schooled on a tool I've had for years.  Excellent work!

please do more of these basic tool run-throughs. you have no idea how useful this stuff is for beginners like me. Just that part about when to use a fast drill speed and a slow drill speed was a great learning moment for me.
