Tim240z Posted March 13, 2006 Author Share Posted March 13, 2006 Correct. You have to check out manually and not via the "one click" checkout. Click the radio button for saver shipping and add the code in the promotion box on the right side of the checkout page. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some-Guy Posted March 13, 2006 Share Posted March 13, 2006 Ohh damn, what a great time for me to go totaly broke! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tim240z Posted March 22, 2006 Author Share Posted March 22, 2006 Got my Drill press today!! Put together and it is sweet!!! I must say, it was well packed and well greased. Not anywhere was there signs of rust/corrosion. Everything went together well with little effort and it seems to work well. I have not drilled anything yet, but it runs fairly quietly and smoothly. I don't have a dial indicator, so I can't check runout, but from the research I have done, runout tends to be very minimal. I am pretty stoked.

CruxGNZ Posted March 22, 2006 Share Posted March 22, 2006 NICE! That's almost the same one I have. I love it. The dang thing has paid for itself many times over. I use it for wood working mostly, but has quite a bit of metal duty as well. Good choice Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pete280z Posted March 22, 2006 Share Posted March 22, 2006 An, new tools. Looks nice. My compressor arrived today, but it had been dropped in shipping. The belt shroud and motor pulley got the worst of it. Just got off the phone with Amazon. It sounds like they are going to take care of this.
