Product Description Wouldn't you like to contour sand on occasion with a drill press? The new SHOP FOX ® Oscillating Drill Press has many great features like a 1/2" drill chuck, sturdy square table, small foot print that won't take up space, precision ground spindle for accuracy and the spindle oscillates! Now you can contour sand without the bother of repositioning the spindle or the paper. The paper will last longer! It comes supplied with a dust port; just add a utility vacuum and sand away efficiently.

| Customer Reviews: What was I think 2!! November 9, 2009 D. Munchel I also bought this over the summer after buying a Grizzly Band saw (BTW, I really enjoy the band saw) but after putting this thing together and putting a 1/2 " flat hole bit to create a simple hole in a 1.5 " thick oak, the bit would stop with the slightest pressure as if it can't do it. Come on, 1/2 amp can't even drill a simple hole? I then put a simple 1/4" bit in and it too would stop with some added pressure. This thing has NO muscle!!! Granted, I didn't expect too much but this is rediculous. Even the drum sanding portion is about worthless. Can't sand anything with such little power.
Displeased with this drill press. June 22, 2009 Jay Crawford 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
After assembling this drill press, it would not operate. I checked it out thoroughly using the manual that came with it and found no apparent problems. I was not please with the quality of the components and have returned it for a refund. I plan to purchase a 12" Delta drill press as it is much more solidly built. It costs more but, I guess you get what you pay for.
Medium + Quality for the small shop. March 19, 2007 Common Grade Woodworker (Earth) 7 out of 7 found this review helpful
I purchased this as an upgrade from my old (cheap) drill press. I was drawn to the secondary "oscillating" feature and the Grizzly name (as the selling vendor).
The product arrived with a broken switch. I reported the issue (via email) to Shop Fox and Grizzly. Grizzly CS responded quickly and shipped a replacement part right away - all at their expense. I get the feeling that they would be willing to help if anything else was amiss.
The H0625 Drill Press itself meets my expectations for quality and features based on the price paid. At some point I will upgrade again but, so far, this drill press has served me well.
What was I thinking? March 12, 2007 Richard L. Shoop 9 out of 12 found this review helpful
I have purchased one other tool from Grizzly a couple of years back, and was not happy about the product nor the total lack of service from Grizzly. I bought this small seemly nice drill press from them under the name of Shop Fox, thinking things would be different. I am very disappointed at the lack of quality control. The motor housing was bent to the point that the machine would not work. But worse, a switch wire was hanging out of the switch housing. The wire was pinched down to the bare wire between the switch housing and the drill case, which would have cause a short to the drill press causing a potential shock or fire or both. I replaced the wire myself, because I didn't want to haggle with Grizzly. It isn't worth the frustration. This will be the last time I will ever buy anything from Grizzly (Shop Fox). I am surprised that Amazon will front a company that is so shabby.
