Watched two other videos before yours. Yours was definitely the most helpful, thank you! I've never used a drill press before, so the help on the drilling speed and everything is much appreciated!
Thanks so very VERY much for this video of the assembly of this Ryobi drill press. I have been looking at these drill presses for a couple of week and TODAY I bought one of these at our HOME Depot & assembled it this evening in my putterStop with your awesome show_and_tell instruction. Your GREAT EFFORTS are MUCH APPRECIATED. …this machine seems to be very well designed and built.
Thank you... I have watched so many vids about this drill press, and you are the first to show how to adjust the lasers, and you're only the 2nd person to talk about the bevelling ability. Thank you again. Yes, I'm late to the woodworking party. So far my entire workshop is made up of Ryobi tools (18v ONE brushless for hand tools). But I'm just DIY'ing atm. Planter pots, and the like.
Thank you so much! Ryobi's directions were useless. Your video made it fun and humorous to put together and to learn how to use it. Excellent video and I will check out your others too. Cheers!
I agree on all fronts! Ryobi directions are dumb, thank god for videos like this or I’d never buy any of their products again. I’ve gotten a bunch of stuff from them now and all those directions that come with them are garbage. And yes thank you for showing how to use it along with setting it up, makes a huge difference for noobs like me lol
I watched 4 or 5 videos on this drill press, yours is by far the best. Thank you for posting. My Ryobi works great! Now I'm off to watch some of your other videos. Thanks again.
Thanks for talkin’ us through this.. Home Depot needs to get involved in making the translations from Chinese more comprehensive for English speaking Americans. Go Air Force!
Congratulations on buying your new Ryobi drill press. I mean Cat's dress. Very smart looking machine. I have the 12" DP121L Ryobi drill press purchased used so no assembly required. And thanks for putting this up!
Good video, enjoyed it. The world outside the US is metric and adjustable spanners are really only for emergencies but I guess that having a wall full of AF spanners only is some kind of emergency 🙂
Just got my Ryobi DP103L today and got stuck exactly on the same step where you got lost for a moment: "Locate the worm gear and feed the D-shaft through the hole in the table assembly". Your blinking arrows solved the riddle. LOL Great video!
Great video. Bought the Australian product and the instructions were not very clear. Watched your video and installed and running in 30 minutes. Thanks
Im still deciding between this one and the Wen 4214 12 inch. I think I'll have to go with the Wen, maybe. I mostly going to use it on metal and those two extra inches from the Wen would help. Cool hat!
Thanks, I mostly do small wood projects and figured the 10” was enough for now. Someday I might need something bigger. Let me know how it works for you.
Hi, I just bought the same drill press, Ryobi should stick to making whipper snippers, their drill presses are crap, the work plate wobbles while winding up and down, a quality machine won’t do that. Great video, cheers
Love your channel -- this looks like exactly the drill press that I need -- I only drill Hammond electronic project boxes... 16 to 24 gauge - very light stuff -- but I need a more mobile clamp that can attach to this drill press... Is there a 3rd party OR Ryobi clamp that will work with this unit -- I used to have access to a giant Chinese made floor mount drill press that had a longer arm - flexible jaw clamp that would hold any work in any position. Many thanks!
Thank you for the great video! I got this drill and the instructions made no sense... sewing a cat dress would have been easier. Thanks for showing the way!
Lol in home depot today while picking up this press there was a dad with his daughter same age as yours. She was telling a story about a cat dress and needing the right size.
Thanks! Pretty much everything I’ve done over the last year is on my channel. I’m working on some stuff right now and have a lot of ideas for things I want to build soon.
Gracias por el video !!! Tengo una pregunta, el mío lo uso por periodos muy cortos de tiempo (5 minutos aprox) pero siento que el motor se calienta mucho, será algo normal o será defecto del mío, espero puedas ayudarme, Greetings from México!!!
Great video man!! How do you like this drill press? Is it worth the money or would you recommend saving for a better brand. I have been looking at it myself but find ryobi tools to be great or horrible depending on the tool
So far I haven't had any problems with it. I think for a small shop or intro drill press its pretty good, especially for the price. For a professional workspace that would use it more often, I think a larger, beefier one would be better.
I can’t move my belts for the life of me. I’ve loosened the bolt, I’ve loosened the ones on the other side and it won’t move at all. I have no idea what to do next. I’m so pissed.
I'd like to upgrade / increase the height of this Ryobi DP103L drill press. Given that I'll need a longer Pillar and Rack, what options do Ryobi drill press owners have in making this about a third higher? I'm curious if anyone here in the community has experimented using another pillar, rack, and possibly table bracket assembly combo from another brand? It seems like it would be possible IF the newer and longer pillar matched the same diameter as that of the original Ryobi pillar
I just bought this very DB from Ryobi. I am having an issue where the table support won't lock, preventing the table from turning and dropping/rising. Anyone else have this issue. I did use a degreaser and pretty much followed the instructions and videos, but I cannot get this table support to lock.
@@SeanDoesDIY the screw isn't able to properly lock in place. I actually just replaced the screw with the same size, but somewhat longer. Just means I have to use a spare ratchet to tighten it. Does the job. Otherwise the DP works well.
Cutting to a long shot immediately before loosening the pulley tension makes that action impossible to follow, which is a shame because it was also the one thing I needed from this video.

Thank you, I have bought one and you have helped me understand everything and always remember Safety is first
You’re welcome Julio, it’s a great little drill press.
Thanks for taking time to film this. I learn more visually than reading instructions. Your video took all the guesswork out of assembly.
Thanks Mark, I’m glad the video helped!
Sure is nice to have a partner to work along side ya, reading the instructions. Thanks for the vid. I hate reading instructions!
Me too😬

Great video. Thank you.
Thanks for sharing your video. I enjoyed watching. Take care and God Bless.
Thanks Walt!
Thanks man. I've been looking everywhere for how to adjust that laser!
Glad I could help!

@@SeanDoesDIY very cool! What was your AFSC? I was AGE, then a wire dawg, then a TI, and finished off at wing staff for AGOW.
Nice. Crew Chief for 15ish years on C-5s, 130s, F-16s, then finished out in Public Affairs.
@@SeanDoesDIY very nice.
Love the video
Thanks!
Instructions would have been better in the manul if they had a few pictures/drawings for assembly.

It’s the same with. Ryobi band saw. Directions make NO sense whatsoever.

I would like to see what jobs you do, I am a beginner but I really like Carpentry so I will subscribe to learn from you. Thanks

Awesome well done video
Thanks!
Gracias por el video !!! Tengo una pregunta, el mío lo uso por periodos muy cortos de tiempo (5 minutos aprox) pero siento que el motor se calienta mucho, será algo normal o será defecto del mío, espero puedas ayudarme, Greetings from México!!!
Much appreciated it
4:43. Tell me you’re an American without telling me you’re an American. 🇺🇸
Gotta love love metric!
I caught that too! Lol!!!
Awesome assembly instructions. Thanks so much!
Thanks and you're welcome!

I can’t move my belts for the life of me. I’ve loosened the bolt, I’ve loosened the ones on the other side and it won’t move at all. I have no idea what to do next. I’m so pissed.
Will a ten inch wide board(for floating shelf) fit in this press?
I have melted the lower plastic drive pulley from using a 2" Forstner bit. Is there a known source for aluminum replacements?
Hey Lance, I haven't found any looking online. Seems that it would have to special ordered.
Why would you put down the camera ans switch to far away?
I'd like to upgrade / increase the height of this Ryobi DP103L drill press. Given that I'll need a longer Pillar and Rack, what options do Ryobi drill press owners have in making this about a third higher?
I'm curious if anyone here in the community has experimented using another pillar, rack, and possibly table bracket assembly combo from another brand? It seems like it would be possible IF the newer and longer pillar matched the same diameter as that of the original Ryobi pillar
I hadn’t really thought of increasing the height, but now that you’ve mentioned it I’m going to look into the possibility.
At 6:14 how did you get the black ring off? I'm stuck at that part. Mine does not seem to come off even after loosing the screw.
Figured it out. Blow torch to heat up the ring, and lots of percussion lol.
Hey Red, apologies just saw your comment. Mine just slipped off, not sure why yours was stuck. Sounds like torching and beating worked!😂
mine was difficult as well. i used wd40 and side by side mallet massages up the shafted worked(5-10 min banging)
Let’s put the cat dress on the drill press por favor!
😂
I just bought this very DB from Ryobi.
I am having an issue where the table support won't lock, preventing the table from turning and dropping/rising.
Anyone else have this issue.
I did use a degreaser and pretty much followed the instructions and videos, but I cannot get this table support to lock.
Is the screw that tightens the table turning? Is the raising and lowering handle spinning freely?
@@SeanDoesDIY the screw isn't able to properly lock in place.
I actually just replaced the screw with the same size, but somewhat longer. Just means I have to use a spare ratchet to tighten it.
Does the job. Otherwise the DP works well.
Could you tell me what the distance is from the chuck to the very bottom stand Thanks
Hey Ben, From the top of the base to the bottom of the chuck is 16 3/8".
@@SeanDoesDIY sweet thanks so much. Love the daughter intro. That's something I would do
@@benbox7329 she’s been begging me to be in a video.
You lost me at the 8 min mark. I can’t see the parts you are putting in.
Say Dad.....what are the measurements on the base. Looks like maybe 14 by 11. Can you check on that?
Mark, the base is 13.5 x 8
plastic pulleys ?? OMG WTF !!
Lol. Can't wait for my son to get older. Hopefully he actually wants a drill press and not a cat dress😂
My kids are always asking if they can be in the videos1!
of course they're metric, 92% of the world uses metric
Yeah😬
