Hey Mike. I paid another visit to Nuneaton and bought the last pillar drill left in the store- an AP340PD - at a 35% discount. Happy days 🌞

[@MikeWaldt]

Nice one Ray 🙂

[@mashmade-airth]

Good review Mike & a really nice piece of kit but somehow I don't think that it would fit into my wee cozy 10' x 5' workshop. 😁 I'll just have to make do with my digital bench top machine which is dragged out when needed then put away again. Suits my needs This is lovely to see though keep up the good work & stay safe

[@MikeWaldt]

Thank you.

[@raydriver7300]

I’ve just had a trip to Nuneaton. Pity I’ve spent a lot of money recently 🌞

[@MikeWaldt]

Sorry to hear that 😉😉

[@raydriver7300]

@@MikeWaldt Hi Mike. Thank you for your prompt response. To be honest, the showroom was half empty, nevertheless I got 20% off what I did purchase, so that was a bonus. 🌞

[@Timber2Toothpicks]

I very much enjoyed your demonstration of this drillpress. Question? Can you buy this in the USA? Also please, How much is this machine? Thanks much!

[@MikeWaldt]

Hi and thank you. I'm sure something similar is available in the US. Here in the UK this machine is just over £500 ... around $650. Cheers. Mike

[@richardduffy2308]

Hey Mike quick question on the depth stop on yours. Is it a retro fitted depth stop or did it come on the drill as standard. I have the AT340 and it is just two opposing nuts which Is a pain in the butt and unreliable. Would be interested in a closer look at yours as it looks to be a great improvement if it now comes fitted as standard. Thanks. Richard.

[@MikeWaldt]

Hi Richard, it comes as standard. If you message me on Facebook we can discuss further. Cheers. Mike

[@aliendoggy1]

would you recommend this pillar drill for woodworking? Or is there other pillar drills that are more suitable?

[@MikeWaldt]

I find this very accurate for all the jobs that I need doing.

[@tomhelsby1304]

Hi Mike. I think my drill must be an earlier version of this. I was interested you said the table can tilt as I don't think mine does. Have I missed something?

[@MikeWaldt]

Hi Tom ... on mine there is a bolt and lock pin under the table at the rear of it. Hope this helps and thanks for watching.

[@tomhelsby1304]

@@MikeWaldt I just had a look and mine has it too! Can't believe I never found it. Thank you so much.

[@davidsteele3037]

I wonder if you looked at the APD340PD? It's a little cheaper than the APD325PD.

[@MikeWaldt]

I did and decided to go with this one David. Thanks for watching and commenting.

[@Timber2Toothpicks]

Mike… How does a guy like me get this drillpress shipped to my house in Oregon USA? They dont ship to the US. Why dont they ship? I guess the weight? This is a REALLY nice drill press and the price is most excellent. I cant find anything even close to this. Dang. Maybe they will ship me one for my Birthday on February 4th? Nice drill press

[@MikeWaldt]

Hi, there are big issues with shipping to the US because of import taxes and the like. This would make the price very unattractive. Thanks for watching though. Cheers. Mike.
