The P-DP30 Foredom Drill Press is a rugged and precise stand which converts your Foredom flexible shaft power tool into a drill press by securely holding a handpiece in a vertical position for drilling straight, accurate holes to specified depths. The sturdy, all metal stand is fully adjustable, has a 2" throat capacity, and a stroke length up to 1-1/4". The work table moves up and down on the post or can swing away for drilling large pieces. Foredom's drill presses are designed for use with Handpiece H.30, H.30H, H.44, H.44T and H.44HT. They can be matched with any Foredom motor including the M.TXH 1/3HP permanent magnet motor with longer, square drive shaft and heavy duty protective sheath, but are especially suited to the Series LX motor for high torque/slow speed applications like stone setting and wax modeling. They also work great with Series SR reversible motor which permits drilling into the workpiece (such as a pearl or bead) in the forward rotation and then out when switched into reverse rotation without increasing the size of the drilled hole. Foredom drill presses are also ideal for modeling, spot-facing, countersinking and reaming in wood, wax, plastic, metal, glass and gemstone. The H.43T handpiece cannot be used in the drill press, it is too short.
