Anyone know anything about Grizzly's new drill press G0753

[Stephen Saar]

I was looking through my grizzly catalog, and I saw that they have their new DP G0753 (http://www.grizzly.com/products/Heavy-Duty-Floor-Drill-Press/G0753). Looks pretty decent, but I wasn't over excited about only 9 speeds, looks like it's lacking on the higher end. Other than that is looks pretty well built from what I can tell, although I've only seen it online, so I can't be sure. I was getting ready to purchase a DP, but now this has me wondering if maybe I shouldn't give this a try.

Anybody have any thoughts or comments on this?

I know their G7948 20" DP is a beast (friend owns it) and is 1/2 the price and has a MT4 taper, not quite 6" stroke but most likely more than enough at 4 3/4, and even goes slower and faster.

Grizzly lists G0753 as discontinued...despite being "New" in the book.

Discontinued do to cost increase from the manufacture, per grizzly reps.
