For greater accuracy, we recommend that a drill press be used instead of a hand drill for precision work whenever possible. This is especially true when using hole saws or step drill bits.
The WEN 4208 8 inch (shown in picture) or SKIL 3320-01 10 inch drill presses are reasonable value tools that are built better than they should be for the low asking price. While not required for our build, larger floor mount drill presses are also available if you're considering something truly professional to impress the neighbours. Don't drink and drill.
