On EBAY, light use on wood only

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 way more accurate and easy to use

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.
