วีดีโอ

First time I see your channel and also the last one. I’m sick of the woman invasion everywhere I look . I hate clickbait, so disgusting and desperate. Greetings from Spain.😂

Great DIY video. Everyone needs extra shortage space!!

Hello, you are very lucky to be able to buy this drill, I am in France, Amazon refuses to deliver, others accept, but the price of delivery is higher than the price of the machine! Thanks for the tests. A suggestion, if you are filming with a camera, there is a function that allows you to disengage the autofocus, if something enters the frame the focus will stay on what has been chosen.

When you do your runout check, don't touch the chuck. You can corrupt your reading doing this. Instead, turn the the motor pulley. I know it sounds a bit picky for this drill press, but it's a good habit to get into.

What's with the thumbnail? Looks like those indian videos where they use a white guy as the thumbnail, but the video is in hindi.

No more dust than it will produce I'd just sweep it up with a bench brush or vacuum it up afterwards.

By the thumbnail I thought a lady was going to be giving the review and was interested in her perspective on it. Mt small woodshop, full as it is, space is at a premium and so I chose one slightly smaller. I got the WEN 4212T, the 10" version of this and so far it seems pretty good. The chuck doesn't wobble, the motor sounds normal and even the spade bits in it seem to run true and smoothly. Haven't yet had a chance to try it with a forstner bit, but in as much as I'll be using quite a large one it'll give it a good workout. 3" or 4" forstner bits to make level spots in logs to adjoin faceplates to for turning on a lathe.

Mine arrived with non threaded holes in the miter bar

Thanks for the video. I have the same issue with the miter bar being a bit too wide. What did you use to sand the bar? Thanks

Saw a woman in the thumbnail and thought OK useless opinion incoming

Just discovered your channel. Thanks for the video. If I may offer a suggestion, I think it would be nice if you don't use the wipe cuts (or at least cut down on them). I found them distracting from paying attention to your instruction.

Thank you for this very informative video. I always appreciate your insight & sharing your woodwork knowledge with the woodworking community. Thanks Vic! Keep making new videos!

Is the lowest rpm actually 580? That seems really fast for my large forester bits. That's been the only reason I'm looking at more expensive drill press

Great video. I recently bought the Craftex CX118. It's a Canadian company but looks to be the identical saw. I assume they're all made in the same factory with different paint lol. I really did not expect it to be so underpowered though. I'm coming from a slightly larger saw (14" King Canada), but was much older and missing parts. I actually came across your video as I was looking for tips and tricks to get mine working a bit better. didn't expect to see the identical saw! I think at this point, I need something like your minimax as I want to do some re-sawing. But this was a good video to confirm my thoughts - and I was able to get it for about half the price Wondering how it performed with a different blade? Was hoping to see that in the vid. Either way, thanks for posting! Great review.

Great project Vic!! Thank you for providing all the details!

I was surprised it cost so much. I didn't realize tools have been going up so much in price. When I bought my benchtop mill/drill I paid $800 for it and the same thing today cost almost 3 grand. Everything is so expensive now.

Hello there, this is a good saw, not as flashy as the Rikon version but very capable. Your pros and cons are pretty good I have been using this model saw for a few years and I love it. My intention was to buy two band saws this one and a large one but honestly this saw is so useful I still haven’t bought a bigger one. So maybe 10” is enough. I generally work with wood that isn’t wider than 6” so it will fit my jointer and this little saw can resaw 6” hardwood all day. I use 3/8 3PC and a 1/2 3PC blade from Timber Wolf to resaw and it cuts with ease. My main general use blades a 1/8 & 3/8 blades and they cut clean. You are sort of right about dust collection and I never calibrate the fence ruler but the fence is great sets up easily and stays true. One small gripe is to open the bottom door you have to loosen the fence clamp as it blocks the door that’s a problem if you have a tricky set up for multiple cuts. I made a handle that is out or the way of the door. I don’t like the non magnetic aluminum table and the non standard miter slot but I made a sled with runners for the slots and it works great. I found that positioning the work light out and away from the cutting area works best. This saw punches above its weight and I love it.

At some point we will run out of companies for China to knock off if people keep buying the knock offs instead of supporting the original companies Then what happens, when those companies all are dead, who will China copy

two things I learned recently, the bearings on the top and underneath the table portion need to be adjusted to no more than a 16th of an inch from the blade. basically as close as you can get them without them spinning when the saw is turned on. And the other thing was the positioning of the blade on the pulley wheels. Apparently the gullet portion of the blade is what needs to be perfectly center on the wheel. lots of folks think it's the center of the band on the blade that's supposed to be centered in the pulley but this causes lots of wobble. The issues you were dealing with are the same that I was dealing with and it corrected them perfectly! Thanks for your channel!

All my featherboards use 2 small slot wedges, and they work just fine. You don't use both knobs on one wedge, the second pair is for the other featherboard.

The Kreg featherboard has 2 short bars and it works perfectly.

I know people who are buying stuff on Temu and selling these items on Amazon and Facebook Market place so not sure how yo can compare

Like your style. Where did you get toggle clamps?

Thanks for sharing, so helpful!

I totally agree on the QA portion of merchandise.

Thank you for the insightful video

Hi Great vid! However, IAW Wen’s web site, that keyless chuck you got is not expressly for the 4214T drill press (although we see it works, until you need to remove it without the tang!). Rather, the recommended keyless chuck is “WEN DPA158L 5/8-Inch Keyless Drill Press Chuck with MT2 Tanged Arbor” for this drill press.

half the stuff sold on Amazon is bought from places like Temu and re-sold on Amazon.. OEM had there patent time to recoup there money for there R&D and sold the item at up to 100% to 500% over what it was worth. I dint feel bad buying something cheaper if its the same. It most likely came from same factory

Thanks for the video.the motor on this bandsaw is 3.5 amp, if we talk hp what would this add up to ? thanks. Oh and the wife will be ok with a few bird houses .

Lower your blade guide and your cut will be cleaner. Adjust your guides.

Unloosen the screws ? lol.

Decent idea for small shops. I’m always looking for ideas for my small space. A quick note about video thumbnails. I checked your other videos and the thumbnails were off putting for me. I’m just one person, but the thumbnails on your other videos don’t appeal to me. This one was much better without clickbait faces/terms. I’m also leaving this coming to increase your algorithm score.

Great video!

Is 10 inches enough well that depends on the thickness…of the wood

Where's you featherboard? Can't operate without a featherboard. I call fowl...I mean foul.

Woodpeckers is kinda up there in price. Who buys their stuff? Some rich guys, I suppose. If it weren't for the Chinese, half the woodworkers would be sucking wind in these inflationary times. Just sayin'.

Oh men, why didn't you go with the WEN DPA158L Tanged Arbor chuck? I don't thing the wedge tool will remove that chuck now, I did some research and found the Tanged Arbor is a more direct replacement chuck for this machine and the wedge tool works. Look into it, you might have time to exchange it.

OK, you sold me on this drill press. I'd like to see any follow up videos on your thoughts since you have had it for nearly a month now. Thanks for the video!

Temu returns are incredibly simple, easy and painless.

Great video!

Great job!

Nice job

If the wife says something just ask her about the cost of her perfume and makeup 😉.

Clever title and thumbnail+informative and detailed video=you got yourself another sub

You will have to ask me wife.....

Great Video!

Thank you for the plant stand it looks awesome in my room!!

Promo sm

I have the same feather boards from Amazon and they didn't come with the t bolt that goes into the track. I get on chat with customer service and they wanted me to pay to ship the whole thing back instead of just sending me the missing piece. Yours look the same because the amazon seller dropshipped from temu

I know Amazon offers a returnoption sometimes and offers Extend warranty at additional cost. Does Temu offer either? Something you might want to add to your list.
