You can move the power head on the ways, Alex. I have this exact model and you can definitely put a chuck in it and fit just about any standard length drill bit into it. You just have to adjust the head on the ways. My only complaint with mine is how loose the vertical travel on the head is. It does not stay up on its own like higher grade models do. I also run carbide cutters (copperheads) because they can take a bit more speed with it being a 800rpm single speed unit. I drilled over 110 holes in 1/2 plate for my fixture table and the cutter is still as sharp as before the 1st hole. Invest in better cutters and you'll be set!
There are 2 screws you can loosen on the grey part, one each side, to move up the drill on the rail. So when you use the chuck, you can actually get the drill up higher, without having to put it on some stuff...
Thorough review! Very helpful. ☮️
I bought the variable speed version to drill the holes in my (your idea) welding table. Yea, it goes thru like cutting butter.
Also, I bought a used HF floor model drill press, removed the motor/head and welded on a platform for this mag drill. It came out fantastic and this is my metal cutting drill press now. No more getting oil and metal shavings on my woodworking drill press.
You should make one a part of the welding table series.
I also made a small version for a portable drill press.
That's awesome 😎
I'd invest in a safety lanyard if you're hanging it upside down or in it's side. If you pop a breaker and the magnet stops working...💥
It seems like a decent tool for the money. I checked your link and they also show one that looks like the exact same thing except it has a speed controller built into the switch panel and it's only $5 more.
I have the variable speed, it works amazing!
I got the one step up has tapping to And it gives you variable speed and reverse
I’ve been thinking about getting one of these. Are you happy with the tapping? Does it auto reverse or have a clutch associated with the tap?
@@andrewdollinger8858 I just got it all I've done so far is plugged in a ran it ck vspeed an rev. its all manel at its price pointe its not going have auto anything more old school up to skill of the operator
I have been wanting one of these for a while man! Thanks for all the info to make an informed decision.
Thanks for the review. I would like to get a mag drill, but I really haven't needed one. I like Hougen Rotacut bits. They work well in my drill press and are similar to annular cutters.
Actually you loosen up the one screw On the Track that it's on and slide it up on the rail when you're using the 3 jolt Chuck
Looks like a solid drill for the price.
Dude, that thing is loud! Hey, give the coolant reservoir a shot, mine doesn't seem to flow AT ALL... Can't figure it out.
If you have a vevor model like this there is a certain point near the very end of the flow adjustment where it works. It's not a super fine control but open it all the way up and give the bottle a little squeeze to get your fluid moving. Then adjust from there. Also helps if you thin out your cutting fluid. I use tap magic so it's already pretty thin but cutting it with some water helps.
I tried to see in this video if the handle is able to be switched from side to side, and I couldn’t tell. I ended up following the link to their site and judging by the pictures it would be a pain to remove the circlip each time. Often times do to tight spaces and awkward drilling I have to swap the handle from side to side or remove two of the three handles for clearance issues
Where’s the jet boat?
I need to get back on it. Been so busy at the 9:00 to. 5' have not had time
I built a stand for mine, I opted for the adjustable speed version: czcams.com/video/4XPnCedHHI0/video.html
