Questions & Answers

What are the options for removing the table? How do I obtain a table that does not require a table (as part of a project)?

If you don't need the table, you can simply assemble it. It's also possible to turn the table around so it's not in the work area by simply turning it the other way.

Is it possible to remove the old chuck and replace it with a new one?

If you don't have a ball joint fork, you can break the taper using something like that. A wooden wedge would work well in the absence of one, since most people don't have one of these. Put a light coat of oil on the chuck, replace the shaft on the chuck, and tap upward firmly using a wood block between the chuck and the hammer to avoid damaging the Using a piece of round stock, you should be able to determine if there has been any run out.

In what case is a circular depth stop better for maximum accuracy, the version found on the 10" model, or the stem and nut style ?

A machine tool like this wouldn't be classified as a class A machine. With a rigid spindle and accurate stop settings, you're looking at a price range of $500 to $700. On this one, I would say that a circular type drill press will get a better result since clearance between the bore of drill head and spindle assembly will result in the spindle being pushed sideways when the nut and stem meet the stop.

My purchase was just a few days ago. A laser does not produce a line, which is meaningless. Please let me know how I can repair it. How am I missing something when I try to adjust and spin it?

The drill press may need to be returned and a new one picked up, as I do not recommend repairing the laser beam yourself. Hope you have a great journey!

Selected User Reviews For WEN 4210 Drill Press with Laser, 10-Inch

A large amount of runout was observed
5/5

The DP was just received I am a little discouraged to find that There is actually a wobble in the bit that you can feel (and see). The same thing happened to me with a high-frequency drill. As expected, I thought that would come Having trouble figuring out what to do next. What would be the benefit of replacing the chuck? Let's hear from you if you have any suggestions. Please see below for an update The chuck was removed again, and everything was wiped We've reached the end of the runout. According to what I'm reading, that's a pretty good work for a tabletop The price I paid was excellent. I have no complaints.

Update 2 I'm an idiot, I know. The belt was tightened to 1/2" play and it dropped the runout to 0. It has a MT02, which is incredible for a drill of this price point. I have a feeling the loose belt caused some of the vibrations. The rating is now 5 stars because I should have checked that first. I am very pleased!.

80% lowers will be completed quickly with this product! (same version as 10)
5/5

You can go to Lowe's or Home Depot to find it Take a look at the There is not a speck of similarity. Yes, this press is made in China and it has a wooden frame The price is a fraction of the price of other options, but it's not perfect. You should be able to assemble this if you are able to use a drill press. I am very pleased with mine. I probably spent about 20 minutes on it. This is a very solid product. This worked perfectly for the purpose we had in mind for those who understand how that works. Level your bench before you begin using it.

I recommend this drill to DIY dads due to its low price and easy installation
4/5

I've been using this drill for a couple of weeks now and have to say that I am very satisfied with it. It's hard to say what makes this drill press so special, but here are a few things to consider

- This product is priced at In terms of price, this is a great deal. I'm not a cabinet maker, but I make the odd outdoor bench / kitchen table / shelf from time to time. With this product, I got more easily and quickly than a hand drill. The drill is more accurate and powerful than a hand drill without costing hundreds to thousands of dollars. However, I haven't drilled any steel or hard thick metal so far, but it has handled everything I have thrown at it. Please note There is a lot of noise. I think tool noise is an issue most people wouldn't see as a priority, but it is a big one for me in my garage. This drill press makes a low hum under no load (I assume because of the induction motor) as opposed to my old drill press which made quite a bit of noise.
- The accuracy of this report is 100% Compared to some other drill presses, the depth stop on this drill works great. You don't have to tighten the depth stop screws to force the drill to stop, it works well, it's easy to read, unlike some other drill presses. CONS Most of them are really simple things that could be changed easily. A Chuck Key is one of those with a spring tip, so that it doesn't get stuck As soon as I replace it, I won't be able to use it anymore, since I have two other chuck keys in the garage that aren't the right size. Please note There is an issue with the rack and pinion height adjuster when you turn the handle, the table moves from side to side The difference from side to side is about an inch. I wouldn't call it a deal breaker, but it would have been nice to have something Trying to replace the chuck key will be the second thing I do after that. Please note Lasers are used to make Although I am one of those people that actually finds the laser handy from time to time, it took a bit of practice to become useful and accurate, which I think should be accurate out of the box, at the very least fairly accurate (mine was 1/8" above the actual contact point).

You may want to look About two weeks before I bought the table, I read a review regarding someone breaking the support for the table, which led me to believe the person had been quite I would have listened to my mother if the item had not been made of really cheap This emphasizes the value of the part because it puts stock in it

In this case, I used it to drill precisely straight holes in case hardened steel for the installation of ghost ring sights on an 870 shotgun
4/5

I paid $113 for it! can you not buy it if you don't have a drill press at your disposal? Obviously, this is not a tool for professional use, but it will allow you to drill holes at home that you are 100% certain to mess up with a hand drill otherwise. As adjustments to line up the work how you want them are course and not machinist-level precise, it takes awhile to get these things lined up the way you want them, but once you do get them lined up correctly and locked down, they perform as they should. In order to install ghost ring sights on my 870 shotgun that required exact straight holes to be drilled in case hardened steel, I used it. It worked as expected. The drill is a must buy if you plan on drilling anything around the house.

The item died after being used four times
3/5

A 10 inch drill press with laser is referenced here, the WEN 4210. The drill press I have been using since July 2016 was purchased from Amazon. There are 16 days left until the end of September. I have only used my drill press three or four times in the past couple months. Overall, it has been an enjoyable experience for me. I used a forstner bit to drill 3/8" holes (1 1/2" deep) in pine studs today at 1700 rpms using a forstner bit. My 16th hole was easily drilled without any issues. Once I finished that drill, I shut it down. I then tried turning it back on a few minutes later, but all I get is a hum from the motor, but nothing spins. When the motor is turned by hand, and with or without power, it turns freely. This might be the result of a burned-out motor, but I have no idea WEN's main line was unanswered when I called to find out what I needed to do to get a replacement motor. I was so confused. It didn't even say "thank you for calling WEN. ". There was no "hold" or anything like that, it simply answered the phone and said, "Someone will contact you. ". So weird, I left a message but have yet to hear from them. As frustrated as I was with the burnt drilling pine, I feel even more frustrated with the fact that the customer service is no better than an answering machine.

Sadly, there are no other options in this price range I can think of. As for my cheaply made Chinese parts, I'll just have to roll the dice and hope they last longer than your cheaply made Chinese.
