Drill+Press

__ //The Drill Press// __
= // Machine Information Sheet // = ** Function ** : Main use is for drilling or boring holes. **Drilling**-Cutting a hole ¼” in diameter or less. **Boring** - Cutting a hole larger than ¼” diameter in a piece of wood. ** Types ** : Bench or Floor Models

** Size: ** Determined by the swing (distance from the center of the chuck to the column) and vertical capacity (maximum height from chuck to table at its’ lowest point). ** Parts: ** **Column:** Supports chuck and motor assembly. ** Quill & Lock: ** Raises & lowers or locks chuck. ** Chuck: ** Clamping mechanism for holding the drill bit. ** Key: ** Opens & closes & locks chuck. ** Mounting Collar: ** Attaches quill to depth gage also used to hold mortise attachment. **Table:** Tilts 90 degrees left or right. ** Feed Lever: ** Raises or lowers quill. ** Motor: ** Usually has a step pulley or variable speed attachment changing the spindle speed ** Index Pin: ** Allows table to be quickly set to 90,and 45 degree angle positions.

** COMMON TYPES OF DRILL BITS ** ** Twist ** -- Most common, comes in size 1/32"-3/4" in increments of 1/64".  ** Multi Spur ** ---Used for boring larger holes that require more accuracy. Comes in sizes 1/2"-/4".   ** Brad **** Point --  ** Used for boring holes 1/4"-1/2” " in increments of 1/16". **Speed or Spade**--Used for boring holes 1/4"-1" in increments of 1/16".   **Plug Cutters**--Cut circular plugs for covering screw heads. Common sizes: ¼”, 5/16”, 3/8” & ½”.   ** Forstner ** --Cuts accurate holes from 1/2"-2" in increments of 1/8".
