Turn that Dremel rotary tool into a drill press with this rotary tool workstation from Dremel. The station accepts several Dremel models to drill perpendicular and angled holes in 15-degree increments from 90 degrees vertical to 90 degrees horizontal. Inch and metric markings on the base make for accurate drilling of workpieces. Depth markings with depth stop provide consistent depth adjustment, while the sturdy metal base with four clamping points holds workpieces securely in place. The workstation also holds the rotary tool steady for other tasks, such as polishing metal objects, sanding different shapes and grinding metal pieces--with greater precision and less fatigue. The station's telescoping shaft allows adjustments to any height between 16 and 29 inches. On-board storage for drill bits, cords, and wrenches keep them all in handy reach. --Brian D. Olson

Excellent tool for jewelers:
I bought this drill press to drill holes in 20 gauge nickel and sterling silver jewelry pieces. It has exceeded my expectations. If you follow the directions and let the tool do the work, you will be very pleasantly surprised that you can add such a handy device to your workbench for such low cost. My husband, an engineer, was pretty surprised at how good it is, too. However, I had to ask for his help with assembling it, because the assembly directions were not the greatest, and I'd never done anything like... more info
High speed tool drawbacks .... can be over come!:
Just pickup a speed controller for $6. It can be either foot-pedal or dial-adjusted, but you can torque down Dremel tools and use them for intricate detail work. You just plug the Dremel power cord into the outlet on the speed controller and adjust it to the speed you need. I can't use the darn thing when its going faster than a 4 year old, but when the Dremel's speed is variably reduced for the particular job I want it to perform, this press works great! Just have to think of how to overcome any... more info
Cheaply built but does the job:
This thing is very cheaply built. Once (painfully) assembled, it works fine. I had problems with wobble until I made sure to tighten down the several screws placed in awkward locations with dubious function. The contraption is far more mechanically complicated than I was hoping, and I expect it will need frequent re-tightening and adjustment to stay stable and centered. I recommend getting a used real drill press instead.
Dremel 220-01 Rotary Tool Work Station:
I am very pleased with this press.
It is not designed for 'ultra' precision drilling but works excellent for my needs.
I think it's a great product for the price.
