This guy always speaks so clearly and slowly unlike others who jabber away like they are running late. Always a pleasure to watch your videos sir.

Hello. Just got given my first drill press to help with my work. Never used one before and this video was perfect to get up and running.

Great video. I’ve used a drill press for years, but I still learned a few things. 😀

This video helped me pass a test. Also, I noticed right off the bat that you used the VERY beginning of the Halo 2 Theme Mjolnir Mix as the intro. I like that.

Great video! I just bought a new Craftsman 12in table top and I'm glad you showed to clamp everything down, as well as the safety aspect of the drill press.

These videos are marvelous! I'm in my mid-50's and have been using tools for 50 years (my Dad started me young). I would best describe my skill level as "enthusiastic." Now that I'm going about things as a beginner I'm learning a lot and having fun with it.

Another great video. Picking up a small drill press this afternoon. Thanks Colin!!!

Now that you mention it, I think my high school woodworking instructor taught us to tighten all three jaws. Had forgotten that for many years! And I'm going to try removing two of the handles. Thanks for those tips, Colin!
P.S. Why not a wheel instead of three handles?

[Boomers_Bud]

Excellent stuff Colin. I have taken a shine to your magnetic light so keep an eye on it. It may find a new home on my bandsaw. Thanks for putting this series together. It will help a lot of woodworkers. Cheers

I am just starting out in woodworking & finding your tips very helpful.

[TheVictoire]

man you rock! Very professional. Here in the Netherlands we are short on teachers ... especially the craftsman from the previous generation like you!
