Press Drill Besides cutting pieces of wood, drilling holes in them is perhaps the most common task a woodworker performs. Woodworkers have a few options when it comes to the implements that they can use to drill holes. Hand Drill are popular because they are effective and require little space for storage. However, they also have limitations regarding their accuracy and ease-of-use. The other practical option for drilling holes into wood is a drill press, which is sometimes also referred to a pedestal drill, pillar drill, or bench drill. These require more space, but they also help woodworkers achieve greater accuracy with the holes they drill and make drilling easy.

Accuracy and ease-of-use are just two of the reasons why every woodworker should have a drill press. Understanding all of its benefits helps woodworkers who do not already own one to see the importance of having one.
