Thread: My new pillar / bench drill
-
3 Weeks Ago #1
I got tired of my Bosch PBD 40 and decided to buy a new bench drill machine. The new machine has many advantages, but not everything is better. I am planning to make several videos about it, here is the first one.
The specifications are very good, but still, there are rooms for improvement, and I intend to improve it. I will also use it as a mill, tried already and it works quite well on mild steel and aluminium, which I intend to use it on. Of course, it will not be a precision machine, but good enough for my immediate needs. I will however not spend as much effort, time and money as routercnc did: https://www.mycncuk.com/threads/7699...ll-experiences because if I need that sort of quality then I'll buy a real mill, like Optimum or something similar.
Anyway, more video and updates will follow. I hope someone will find it interesting.
