I just got my first drill press the other day as a Christmas gift. It's a Grizzly G7944 12-speed floor model drill press. To adjust the speed, you have to open the top and move the belts on the three pulleys, which seems like a big pain. Is there a "standard" speed I can set it on for drilling wood? I tend to work with softer woods, though it's not out of the question that I may drill some oak or other harder woods from time to time.
