The Craftsman 21914 benchtop drill press features digital depth readout and a laser guide
Jul 01, 2007
Craftsman’s model 21914 benchtop drill press features a laser guide and work light, a swivel knob to help it clear a workpiece as you lower the bit, an offset table crank, and digital depth readout. The mechanism for setting depth is excellent, but changing speeds with the manual pulley system was difficult compared to others tested in this category.
Fine Woodworking Recommended Products
Grizzly G0495X Industrial Helical Cutterhead 8-in. Jointer
Regardless of the board’s grain, this jointer produced excellent results. Its fence was totally flat, worked smoothly, and locked well, staying in place even after jointing multiple edges. Getting the fence to 90° was very easy, but the 90° stop was a little tricky to set and the fence did not go back to square when using it. For those who would use it, there is also a digital depth-of-cut scale.
