Friends: 

It's a big day for me. I've recently quit client work. I'm installing one of my last jobs tomorrow. I may take a job here or there to make ends meet, but I now consider myself a full-time content producer. 

Weeks ago, I asked you what video I should do and you overwhelmingly voted for a video on drill press basics. It's been in the back of my head since then, but I just couldn't squeeze it in. 

Now I have more time for the good stuff, so here it is. 

Part 1 in a 4 part series. 

Hope you like it!

Congrats on making the leap to being a full-time creator. I'm at the spot in my woodworking where I would like to start acquiring power tools, so this video is perfect timing.

Perfect timing to sign up as a patron!

So I assume you have some hand tools already? That's how I would start if I were doing it all over. And yes, a drill press is the best starter power tool. Does a lot of work and it's hard to hurt yourself on one. (Not impossible; but hard.) Glad you liked it!

wow, this is right on time!!! I just bought an old floor drill press that needs rehabbing. Never used one before. Hopefully you'll get all these published before I put an eye out.

Oh man! The floor models are the best and most sought after. Score! And I do plan on moving right along with this series. Don't worry too much about safety. Hard to get hurt with a drill press (not impossible, but hard).

I lucked out and bought a harbor freight stand up model that was never used for $40. Just missing the belts and the crank that moves the table up and down was broke off. Before then, I had an old rusty table top kind. Now I have it, I use it on at least 50% of the stuff I do.

I'd love to hear more about your drill press. Clearly, people who see my drill press videos and going to want recommendations on a press they can buy, but I don't know what to tell them. I like mine, but it's a weird asian model that I found at a Habitat for Humanity Restore. I need the intel on cheap but good presses.

I know someone that owns a pawn shop and he normally gives pretty good deals to me. I had to do a little work to it as I mentioned but nothing major. Even though it's a 13 inch harbor freight drill press, I can't see any run out or wobble what so ever and it has enough power that I've never bogged it down on anything and I have drilled through 1/4 steel with it as well as large holes in hardwood. I have no problem buying tools that needs a little work as long as the price it right!

Amen to that! I've brought back some tools that might have gone to the scrap-pile. But if you're broke and you need tools, then that's the game.
