Not looking to buy one, but the one I have has proved invaluable. It certainly drills holes more perpendicular to the work piece than I can with a hand drill. The speed adjustment feature is good to and it's worth checking drill speeds against drill diameter and material type before drilling.

Good luck with the sale!

Yeah,perhaps on a pallet would be doable?

Says on label on drill it's 70kg so no chance of a normal parcel courier!

Mine is also similar and has drilled all manner of things without an issue.

It was free standing for a short time before I bolted it to the top of the workbench. Leaves both hands free to hold the work piece and operate the drill itself.
