Craftsman 12" Drill Press 21914 —
I was looking for a benchtop drill press that had plenty of power and had a smooth feed rate, and according to other's reviews the 21914 was one of the best in it's class. I was not thrilled that it had a digital depth gauge, I figured I would just ignore it use the press as normal. After I played with the digital depth gauge I realized that it was an awesome and feature. Simply lower the bit to the top of your stock and zero it, then remove the stock and lower the bit to the desired depth, lock the spindle and do repeated hole at your specified depth. I was not impressed with the work light. This model has the smaller LED light it's beam doeas not cover a wide area. The laser guide works fine but I think it would be easy to knock off center. Overall I am very satisfied with the power, smooth feed and easily adjustable speed but the depth gauge has become favorite feature.
