I'm considering a drill press. I've been offered (to buy) a jig and bits to do 5 lug conversions to hubs & rotors.
How much hp do I need? I don't wanna spend a lot of $, but I don't want a POS. Is a 1/2HP enough? 3/4, 1? thanks. |

Get the oldest and heaviest one you can find. HP means nothing to a drill press. 1/2 hp would be fine. Its all about the torque. "How slow will it go?" will be the bigest question.
I have a 1960's delta and love it. It cost me about $350. |
