In Response To: Tools: source(s) for sander, drill press (Dean Trexel)

: I have a friend (well actualy I have 2, but just one I'm talking about at the
: moment :) ) who's looking for a disc/belt sander and a drill press,
: preferrably floor-standing. I pointed him to the Grizzly tool site (that
: was the only one I found in a search here), and Sears. Anyone have any
: other suggestions? He's looking middle-of-the-road, quality-wise. Cast
: iron, not cheap stamped steel, but not top-of-the-line, either.

: Thanks,

: Dean

Dean, last year I bought a radial drill press at harbour freight its low middle but I liked the features, seems to run pretty true, the price was right, and it does what I need it to do.
