I found trying to find one of these almost impossible and this week, having an urgent need of a pillar drill I bought a Wolf 9 speed one for under £80 which I am more than happy with as it uses a B16 JT arbor meaning I can easily fit ER collet holders and end mill holders which is part of my plan to convert to a light milling machine. At rest there is no play on the quill but it develops a bit of play when extended so I need to address that before I can shape metal. Used it in cold blood today drilling two very precise 0.80mm holes in a very expensive Soviet diver watch, abs flawless action and super pleased with it.
Thanks David nice review. This product was reduced in my Lidl last time I was in there and ummed and arghed about getting one and your review has confirmed my suspicions. Thanks again great channel BTW.
Thanks Ian 👍 yeah I think they need to reduce the price again.
Take care 🙂👍
Don't be such a cheapskate! £130 is very reasonable. What is £130 these days anyhoo!?
@@frankklein4872 buy me one then
Thanks for the video, David. I was looking at these (and trying to justify the cost to myself) so this is really timely. I think I'll stick with my old faithful for the time being. No real reason to change it for now - just liked the idea of easily-variable speed and depth control. Saved me a bit of money watching this. I share your reservations about the build quality of some of it. Cheers - take care.
Thanks for watching Sandy, yeah I think the money could buy a decent bench pillar drill.
nice review David! I see you have added some nice lighting and your editing has improved nicely. Good job mate!
Thanks Kevin, I keep popping into your workshop (on TH-cam) to keep up to date with what you have going on 🙂
Take care David 🙂👍
I have this drill for 9 months now and after many mods it works very good, nice vid David and have fun with it :))
That's good to hear, take care 🙂👍
@Xinix Xagnix what mods You done?
Hi David. I like the variable speed control....A1. This machine is very good for the home woodworker. Tony
I have just paid £62 for the PTBMOD 710 B2 model, no digital screen, no problem, key chuck 👍🏻, no chuck plastic screen, the plastic control knobs feel ok for me, my main issue is how the pillar gear works it seem a bit stiff and sticks a bit, with a bit of attention will work fine. The laser cross hairs are are ok so for me for the money and a three year guarantee is pretty good value for money.
You could solve the slack in the pull down handle with some jb-weld.. Obviously wax the shaft first, unless you never want to get it off of course lol. Lovely vid sir. Thankyou xx
Good review, thanks for taking the time.
There's a video on here about swapping the chuck on the Bosch comparable PD over - which made a
significant improvement to its accuracy. I would imagine the same would be possible on this one?
(It was swapping the OEM Rohm chuck for a higher quality item from the same brand).
The lowest price I've seen for the Bosch one, so far, is £247*
(*if you put Bosch PBD40 in the search box, on this platform, it give a list or retailers above -
a quick, if crude way of throwing up prices/sellers)
Guranteed for 3 years. If you got that out of it, its worth £130 knicker. You say it felt cheap and tacky, what exactly was you expecting from parkside? Im just happy it runs alot more true than my last one. Good video and informative. Cheers.
why do you have two band saws ?
Thanks for this review, very useful. I think I saw these in Lidl for £129 recently. They didn't sell out and hung around for a few weeks. I've never owned a bench drill so considered getting one, but I wouldn't pay that price. Lidl tools are often well priced, so I was surprised about how much they were charging for this. Having watched your review, I'm definitely glad that I didn't get one. Surely there are more affordable models available for hobby use?
Ah right, the Scheppach DP60 is £280 at Screwfix! But yes, cheaper bench drills are also available.
£129 is what I paid but personally I think they should be below £100.
Thank you for watching and take care 🙂👍
A lot of the cheap PDs get very bad reviews. It's something that warrants a bit of research.
The Titan (by Screwfix) didn't seem too bad - but that seems to have been withdrawn now.
The Bosch option looks reasonably viable - particularly with a chuck swap - but at over
200£ it isn't really a 'budget' option.
A good quality used model can be a good bet - but they're getting harder to find now, as
people have come to appreciate the value/quality in the old made-in-England tackle.
have its on metal i juse my 2 times and then it was not work more the chocks can i hold with my hand no power on it
Im glade i didnt get one after seeing your review .thanks david
I got one, it went back.
I think this is similar to the Bosch pillar drill. I did a review of my one on my channel. Have a look and tell me what you think Dave. I think they're very similar. I'm also not a fan of the quick release chuck on this machine. It's much fiddlier than a keyed chuck.
Hello David,
A good review... I think it has lots of gimmicks which are not really needed and as you say the lifespan is questionable. Have a good Easter.
Take care.
Paul,,
Take care Paul 🙂👍
👍😎
Nice drill David would be ideal for milling using a milling vice when making models
Milling was in the back of my mind Phil as I was going to buy a milling vice a couple of months ago but then decided my drill has no height lock. This new drill has no height lock either but I might make one if I keep it.
Take care 🙂👍
@@InTheWorkshop I think you’ll keep it David as your mind is like mine where there’s a will there’s a way y
Looks like it would’ve good for small holes, nice high top speed
What mods have you made @machineshopatthebottomofthegarden?
I bought the DP55 instead because I didnt like the stupid chuck on the DP60 . The key`d chuck is much better in my opinion , little bit more run out but for my use its not a problem .
I bought the Aldi version, you don't need to grip the top part of the chuck to tighten it, just turn the lower part whilst its set to tighten.
Thanks Mathew I will have to try that, I just followed the included instructions. I see that the Bosch version locks the spindle when turned to the lock position.
@@InTheWorkshop I made the same mistake also following the instructions. I saw another TH-cam channel (can't remember which one) using the drill and they seemed to change bits far easier than me and then I realised why.
Is it possible to put a drill press vise in this one ?
Hi, if you're asking is there room to use a vice on the drill yes there is 👍
Best to use a wood bit when drilling wood
Are you still using this pillar drill ? If so how’s it held up
Thanks
I only use it now and again because I'm usually working in my main workshop and use the pillar drill that's in there.
Hello, bought a Scheppach DP60 and after the first time i worked with it it broke completely.
Not good 😕
Ouch! How it broke,please more details..What have you drilling l,what speed,where it broke exactly...
You have the fence the wrong way round I think?
The fence will work back or front
Good review mate , you seem disappointed in it so I think you should return it for a refund mate keep safe mate 👍
I could hear the disappointment in your voice David, I like some of the features, the digital speed control and depth gauge, but I'm afraid the plastic parts would put me off, looking at it closely it appears they have tried to make it look like a space ship with moulded parts in the shape that don't need to be there and as you say the knobs look cheap. For the price I would expect something a little better. But I am sure you'll find a use for it, door stop on a warm day? :-)
Keep up the good work, I love watching your videos, I have picked up so many little tips.
Yeah Steve I don't like the fact that it's a lot of plastic. I just have this for precision drilling, which I don't do very often 😄
Why is it only this brand and bosch that make these really useful bench drills, both have their faults. Come on Makita, let's see what you can do!
It seems to have a lot of gimmicks you would probably never use, the chuck would drive me mad it takes longer than a conventional one. I can’t see it lasting as long as a standard piece of kit in a wood shop, my drill is an old Grimston and must be at least fifty years old. I think this drill may be better suited to a model maker.
Yes I think you are right Mike, thanks for watching 🙂👍
You seem to tell us everything about this drill except the price,made the video virtually useless.???
Have you heard of Google?😄
I don't think I could stand the noise.
Looks like a kids toy.
Expensive toy 🙂
Take it back bud, it’s pants. Purchase something better quality.
Wasn’t being funny mate, just that I had one and the cheapy plastic got on my nerves. They took it back no probs..
Your not on your own with the idea to take it back, I will decide over the next couple of days. I might have plans for it.
Take care 🙂👍
