Woodpeckers drill press table..
I purchasd one in a pinch today. I went to Woodcraft to gather the parts needed to make my own. After some himming and howing a very nice sales rep pointed out Woodpeckers had one fully made right over here. This sounded like the move as i realy have no interest nor the time to make one.
Well it was not the move. After drilling the thing out to fit my DP i get it all setup only to realise i can see daylight through the center of the fence were it registers with the table. I put a straight edge on it and its not even close to flat. The whole thing bows up at the edges.
Anyway i only mention this as i seem to remeber a recent post of someone else having the same problem. I would hate for others to have the same problem. When i was making my decision for a fleeting moment i did recollect the previous thread. I quickly disregard it in the name of saving some time. I also figured from time to time defects happen and wrote it off as a fluke.
I hate to try and return it as i am kinda friendly with my local woodcraft sales staff and i get a sense they dont much care for returns.
Crazy $134 later and i still gotta make my own. One for one woth Woodpeckers. I dont see myself ever buying any silly red aluminum form them after this.
