As my woodworking time is limited, it has not been used extensively. Despite this it has failed twice; first the on off switch broke down. It was fixable, but a bit annoying. Now the pin holding the spindle pulley broke, rendering the machine useless. It was not possible to get a part of the pin out, and I have temporarily fixed it with a piece of a coat hanger. It was disappointing to note that the accompanying parts diagram was rendering an incorrect picture of the machine, and it makes me question how much quality control this machine has been subject to.&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;When the coat hanger breaks I will invest in a Powermatic variable speed drill press, which might have been the right thing to do from the get go.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div id="str"&gt;&lt;div style="background-image: url(images/starbg.gif); width: 36px; height: 13px; float: left;"&gt;&lt;div id="star"&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;span class="rating"&gt;"A good press but needs rework"&lt;/span&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;span class="reviewdate"&gt;2009-07-03&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;By &lt;b&gt;Chosen One&lt;/b&gt; (Hilton, NY United States)&lt;br /&gt;Good:&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;Variable speed - middle ranges are not marked but easy to figure out&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;Solid table&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;Solid three handle drill extension&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;Table crank works well&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;Fairly quiet&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;Bad:&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;Cheap chuck - upgrade to a Jacobs&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;Top motor pulley became seperated from collet - easy fix, drill hole through both when lined up, tap and then Loctite a screw to hold.  Newer units have pins to prevent this, mine is 3 years old.  Fix took 20 minutes.&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;Cover has too many screws - easy fix, remove screws and install a couple small hinges. Replace one screw on opposite with thumbscrew. Fix took 20 minutes.&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;Additional comment:&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;You do not need to lubricate this press or run through the speed range daily.  Once a week would be fine.  I service mine once a month.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div id="str"&gt;&lt;div style="background-image: url(images/starbg.gif); width: 48px; height: 13px; float: left;"&gt;&lt;div id="star"&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;span class="rating"&gt;"Delta DP350 Drill Press"&lt;/span&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;span class="reviewdate"&gt;2009-04-30&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;By &lt;b&gt;raziel&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I purchased the Delta DP350 drill press from a service centre at a good price after reading the reviews at amazon. The drill press is refurbished and has a 2008 manufacture date. The pulley slippage design flaw mentioned by many reviewers was addressed and fixed by Delta in 2006. However, the decal still has only the 500 and 3100 speed ranges. I made a decal in AutoCad 2000 that I stuck over the existing decal and shows a range of speeds (See images). It would also help if Delta had addressed  the issue of removing the six screws from top cover plate to lubricate the pulleys weekly. A hinge system would have helped. Other than that the drill press works great.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;  &lt;a href="http://www.amazon.com/review/product/B00006K00I%3FSubscriptionId%3DAKIAJREGGYWZSE2EL6JQ%26tag%3Ddmtblog-20%26linkCode%3Dxm2%26camp%3D2025%26creative%3D386001%26creativeASIN%3DB00006K00I" target="_blank"&gt;All Reviews&lt;/a&gt;  &lt;center&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/offer-listing/B00006K00I%3FSubscriptionId%3DAKIAJREGGYWZSE2EL6JQ%26tag%3Ddmtblog-20%26linkCode%3Dxm2%26camp%3D2025%26creative%3D386001%26creativeASIN%3DB00006K00I" target="_blank"&gt;&lt;img src="http://cheap--jewelry.us/dmtblog/images/get.png" border="0"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/center&gt;  &lt;br /&gt;  &lt;center&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/offer-listing/B00006K00I%3FSubscriptionId%3DAKIAJREGGYWZSE2EL6JQ%26tag%3Ddmtblog-20%26linkCode%3Dxm2%26camp%3D2025%26creative%3D386001%26creativeASIN%3DB00006K00I" target="_blank"&gt;&lt;img src="http://cheap--jewelry.us/dmtblog/images/che.gif" border="0"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/center&gt;   &lt;div class="bar"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;     &lt;h2&gt;Technical Details&lt;/h2&gt;     &lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;Powerful 1/3 HP motor with variable speed capabilities of 500-3,100 RPM&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Sturdy table adjusts 90 degrees to the left or right; rack-and-pinion depth adjustment allows for precise drilling&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Super sturdy cast-iron construction virtually eliminates vibration&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Measures 22 x 11 x 37 inches and weighs 78 pounds&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Includes 1/2-inch chuck key, belt and pulleys, and flexible lamp&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt; &lt;br /&gt;  &lt;div class="bar"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;     &lt;h2&gt;Product Description&lt;/h2&gt;  Precision drilling is a snap with the DELTA DP350 12-inch Variable Speed Bench Drill Press.
