    I looked at both of these drill presses and went with the Bucktool.

    The bucktool drill press reflects a different RPM max speed. Your Bucktool went up to 1700 RPM while the WEN' display reflected 1740 RPM. That may not ne a lot but it depends on what drill bit you're going to use and what you will be drilling through. That's all that I noticed from your video. Thanks for the comparison, Aaron. So far, I think I like the Bucktool better without even drilling one item. The small work table on the BUCKTOOL rotates 360 degrees which may allow a better clamping area than the fixed WEN press. To me, a better way to show comparisons is to demonstrate drilling through several different oddly shaped metal, wood, and plastic items to show the machines in use. That would help me determine real-world differences and some pros/cons of each machine. Thanks for showing both drill presses side-by-side. 👍🏽🤠06/13/24

    Hello Aaron,
    Recently purchased this drill press and I learned you can lock the quill with the supplied depth stop. You simply pull the quill to the desired depth, then rotate the depth stop to that desired location and lock this position on the depth stop with the thumb screw. Next, release the press handle and the quill will be locked into position. Hope this makes sense. There are other TH-cam videos showing this action on different presses but utilize the same depth stop.
    Thanks for your video, loving this new press as it is far superior to my old 8” baby drill press…

    You commented that you couldn't use something like a drum sander on the Bucktool due to there not being a stop to keep the chuck down. 2 things wrong with that: 1) you can raise the table up until the bottom of the drum sander rests partially inside a slightly larger hole in a board and lock the table in place. 2) If you look closely at the left side of the Bucktool, you'll notice there's still a threaded rod sticking up through the shaft where the old-style depth-stop adjustment use to be made, just like on the Wen. However, there ARE still two nuts that can be adjusted and locked into position to hold the chuck down. I have the Wen, personally. I just got it for ~$216 at HD (plus tax) and really like it. I DO like the design of that depth stop on the Bucktool, though. MUCH easier and quicker to set than the Wen's older style.

      The threaded rod on the left side was placed by me and held in place by a 3D printed collar...it's in the video.

      Did you notice any difference in run-out accuracy and quill play?

    Which would be better to drill metal. For example, cutting a 1.25" hole with a bi-metal hole saw. Can either cut the hole at their lowest speed and not bind and come to a stop? I watched your two reviews on each and you specifically drilled wood for your test.

      Hard to say as I've never tried it. That said, I've run some pretty big forsners into some hard wood without issue.

    Wen $250 vs Bucktool $340. Ya, I don't think Bucktool is $90 better either. In anything, I would rather buy a Harbor Freight's Bauer for $300 (also goes down to $250 during sales) for the slightly more powerful motor.

      @@aaronsrapidreviews Is it bad? I hear they take it back without asking any questions. And I know that's definitely true for those lifetime hand tools like Icon. But power tools like this probably only has a year warranty unless you pay for more.

      It's only 90 days on most power tools

    Thank you. I was debating between these two and you made my decision much easier 🤘

    I purchased a piece of crap WEN 4214 drill press and was able to square the table left to right but it was badly out of square front to back. I assumed that the vise I mounted on the table must have thrown it out of square so I removed it and tried again. I discovered that it was the table itself that was out of square so I decided I could shim the vise and level things up. Wrong - the table is DEFORMED and has one low corner. Which is basically impossible to shim and fix. I went back and forth with WEN forth three weeks and they finally suggested I PURCHASE a new table from them that might possibly be square front to back. ...isn't the entire purpose of a drill press to drill holes that are square with your work? This POS fails miserably!

      It's always hard to tell on camera. In real life, I would say the Wen is slightly quieter, but you'd never notice it unless they were side-by-side.
