Tools and Hardware Reviews of Grizzly G9969 Radial Drill PressCustomer Review: radial drill press. Summary: 4 Stars
After much digging for people with experience with this drill press i finally bought one. It is very heavy, so it must be mounted to a secure base. mine is a 30" tall frame that is bolted to the floor. It has a nice range of speeds, and a large 5/8" chuck capacity. My favorite part about this machine is the throat depth. in my line of work versatility is key. i need to be able to drill holes in large pieces without tying up our mill just to drill a good hole. The one downside i agree with is that you cannot get the drill all the way down to the stock table. It appears to be designed to add a XY table to the base to achieve this. My fix for that was to build a 6" tall plywood box that bolts into the T-slot base, with a drop in top piece for drilling into. this makes it able to use on a much wider variety of projects. my table is 24"x36" on the top surface so i can easily sit most things on it for drilling. and i just pop out the drop in surface and replace it when it becomes filled with too many holes.
In conclusion i am a big fan of this versatile design... its also the only adjustable throat drill under $1,000 so that doesn't hurt either.
