I bought my Skil Model # 3320-01 drill press a few weeks ago and I am happy with my purchase. I was looking for something affordable, its purpose would not see industrial use so this press compared to various models by Delta, Jet, Central Machinery etc. fit the need for me.

What I liked was the fact that the contents were all there and the press was actually packed very well. Nothing is worse than trying to get parts that are suppose to be there but mine was complete. There is however a couple of things that might raise an eyebrow but is easily solved:

1) The drill press head pressed plate that receives the motor plate was not flat so the Motor Pulley and Spindle Pulley would not align. I took the press head plate to a nearby metal shop and they flattened it (took two seconds) for free - solved.

2) Maybe I'm being nit-picky but the laser can be touchy to adjust - it works. The battery compartment for the laser is also plastic so be tender with it.

In my opinion, it is a very good drill press. The press is more quiet than I thought and the workings very smooth. It may not have the power others have but if your patient and use sharp bits you'll be pressed to beat the price.

3.0 out of 5 stars Not that good a deal, even if you don't mind the risk, August 18, 2009

The reviews mentioning packaging aren't kidding. If you end up with a working press is is a good deal. Mine had the metal cover on top bent and the laser battery cover was broken, but it still works.

Update: Now that I have checked Lowes price on a new one. Spent the extra $10 and get a new one. This isn't really that great a deal.

For the same price or less than a "hobby" drill you can have a real industrial product--if it gets to you intact! The packaging was totally inadequate to say the least. I received it dented, missing pieces and a manual. The styrofoam liner was torn into small pieces, I think the bubble wrap may have saved it. Amazon customer service was pleasant and offered me a small discount. Skil customer service was great and sent me one of the missing parts for free! I can find the rest at the local hardware store, and the manual is online. So buyer beware. If it was not working, it would have been a huge hassle to try and return, not to mention trying to repack. Good luck!
