I've been looking at a Peerless drill press in Fisher discounts in Canberra.
This one here
http://www.peerlessproducts.com.au/workshop/pedestal/67
The floor model is a bit different from the photo, it has a more sturdy lever arm. It's construction feels sturdy, and its specifications measure up for my general woodworking requirements.
Its $600 and so it is a bit dearer than comparable models from, say H and F. Why I'd pay more is that its got a 3 year warranty and I don't have to pay postage, and I know the guys at Fisher Discounts will look after me if its not up to standard.
Does anyone have any experience with this brand or comments on the purchase? I'm pullling the trigger later in March.
