I only posses one too with a laser cutting line. My slide mitre saw. I wouldn't be without it, after first use. The drill press sounds like an awesome thing to have laser, also, but I am not sure about many other tools benefit from it much. Laser on my hammer would be real nice.
How do they align the laser markings at any height of drill surface. It would seem to have to shine down the shaft of the drill bit and that doesn't sound possible?? Smoke and mirrors? Moving mechanism?
I bought the 1HP Porter Cable drill press at Lowes for ~$300. Loving it.
Can I say I love the laser that throws an X to mark the spot. This is one gimick worth the time to keep working and calibrated.
Runs pretty smooth (rattles a bit like all non-gear head drill- presses). Nice belt change setup and tensioner. Includes a light on a flex arm which is real nice to have and the red laser still shows up fine.
Did I say I love the X laser?
