Well the is the first drill press i have owned, as a result i would have liked to have gotten a grizzly with it’s 12 speeds. 5 speeds are ok, but 500rpm is sometimes a little fast on behalf of my big metal drills as a result bi-metal hole saws. As far as packaging, DELTA DP300L was a little rough. I bought mine refurbed as a result could not pass up the charge of $140 bucks shipped. (much cheaper than the grizzly) my switch housing was broken, but was not falling out as a result still worked, who cares no biggie on behalf of me. No runout issues (checked it with my dial guage) with the chuck. Swapping the belt to a different speed is stupid comfortable as a result fast. It takes me less than 30 seconds. The tray is neat, but on behalf of me gets in the way so i just took it off. Take the time to adap the lazer properly. It can be completely accurate from the top to the bottom if you take 5-10 minutes to get it right. I found that when i tightened the caps covering the lazers, they moved slightly, so i went back as a result fourth between the two screws to keep the lazer centered on the provided alignment dowel. I do allot of metal work as a result use it with my tubing notcher. I found my notcher would fit with the base all the way down as a result my setup will bolt to the hole in the middle of the table. Getting it all lined up so it did not bind throughout the movement took a while. Drilling holes is allot easier as a result more accurate as a result has fufilled all of my expectations. Has plenty of power on behalf of what i do as a result has not flinched at anything yet.
