Exclamation Anyone Looking For A Good Drill Press.....Act Fast

Craftsman has discontinued their 17" drill press.....



I had one and it was awesome.....

I've spent the last 2 weeks trying to buy one.....

Every Sears store around me is out. Can't buy one online, even with an In-Store pick up option.....So I guess I'm out of luck.

Normally, it's $430. Right now since it's discontinued, it's $330.

Here's the specs.....

Craftsman 17" Drill Press

I settled for the 15" model with Laser Tracking.....

We'll see how effective that laser really is.

The 15" makes a lot of compramises as compared to the 17" so I'm a little bummed.....

Just thought I'd pass this on in case anyone was looking for a drill.

Allen

I bought up the remaining drill presses upon closeout. What's one worth to you?

P.S. I still have half of the Brooklyn Bridge left if anyone's interested.

Thanks for the heads up; Allen. I've been looking for one and hopefully I can find it here in AZ.
