 __Description:__
-The drill press comes in a floor or bench-mounted model. It has a motor driven head that has a chuck that accepts bits or cutters. It also has an adjustable table on which the work is mounted. It is operated by pulling a rotary lever that lowers the drill bit into the material. To avoid accidents, the following operational safety rules must be observed by everyone working on the Vancouver Hack Space drill press. Failure to follow the safety rules may result in a loss of shop privileges.

   - Always clean the drill press table and work area upon completion of the drilling task. Do not use your hands or blow the drill shavings, use a chip brush.
   - When drilling into metal use cutting oil and apply moderate downward pressure. If you generate excessive smoke from the cutting oil you are either applying too much pressure or your bit is dull. Rags or chip brushes saturated with cutting oil should be disposed of in a fire can or outside in the dumpster. Never place oil saturated material in the interior garbage cans within the space!
+===== Speeds =====
+RPMs can be determined easily by using this {{:tool:cutting-speed-nomogram.png?linkonly|cutting speed nomogram}}, just substitute the drill size for the workpiece diameter. The {{:tool:lathe-cutting-speed.png?linkonly|original cutting speed nomogram}} came from Ian at the BCSME.
