Drill Press question?
Posted by modeler bill on Tuesday, December 20, 2005 1:56 PM
Does anyone know of a small drill press to purchase for drilling with #65 thru #80 drills? Cheers, Bill

Bill;

I don't know if there is a "manufactured" version. I built an adapter using a worn out 3/8 drill's chuck to hold my smallest drill bit with the stem chucked in my dremel tool and it allows me to use the dremel drill press to hold it.

Cheers;

Gregory

Call Micromark and see what chuck their small drill presses come with. If it isn't a Jacobs #0 ask them if the chuck can be easily replaced with one by you.
