BEAMNOVA Drill Press Stand for Hand Drill Benchtop Industrial Kit Tool Holder 90 Degree Clamp Workbench Repair Tool

I received one of the cheaper Drill Press Stands for my birthday. the side lever kept pulling the drill to the side making it next to impossible to get consistent strait holes. seeing that this one uses a track and gear to lower the drill I purchased it. Yesterday it arrived and today i used it to drill 50 holes, all came out straight.

Used this for mounting a soldering iron for pushing threaded brass inserts into plastic parts. The dovetail slide works well and came pre-adjusted from the factory. The post is from thin steel and may be easy to bend. Some if not all of the castings are cast aluminum, but should hold up to lighter use. This makes an excellent base for any special tool requiring a drill press motion. Or mount your rotary tool.

Turns out the drill I have from skil (model 6445) has a 1.69" diameter at the collar almost exactly. So didn't need to ad a shim to make it fit the collar on the drill press. The drill itself is not perfectly round at the collar, but it was good enough to be compatible and have a tight fit after tightening the collar on the press around it.That drill requires me to always have my finger on the trigger for power, but made do.

The port drill mount hole is too small by 7mm

I purchased this Drill Press Stand to hold a Soldiering Iron to heat press brass nuts into 3D Printed Plastic Parts. Here is what I discovered with this item. See attached pic with notes for info.This product looks really nice on line. The color(s) is what attracted me. It does have a good price point. But, be prepared to fix a lot of stuff. If the manufacturer took the time to dial in the details and quality this product really has potential. If you have access to 3D printing much of this can be fixed or improved; without 3D printing you might be disappointed in this product.
