Doing Things Wrong

Greatest Prog Band of ALL TIME

Twisted Sister took Prog to a whole new level
Eat yer heart out, Peter Gabriel

In case you're having trouble falling asleep:

I know there are some people who would say Twisted Sister is not the greatest Prog band of all time, even that they are not Prog at all. To that, all I have to say is:

You're all worthless and weak !

I took a drive over to Harbor Freight - purveyor of fine {sarcasm} Chinese tools & hardware - and picked up this little drill press. With a coupon, it cost me just over fifty bucks. This is not what I would call a good drill press, in fact, it is pretty crappy. The base and the table are stamped, not forged, and small. The quill travel is a measly two inches, parts that should be steel are aluminum, parts that should be aluminum are plastic, vibration is excessive, and the 3/8" chuck has a disconcerting wobble to it. I knew all that when I bought it, and I never would have if I did not already have a much better one, or at least a decent one. What I wanted from this drill press is small size and lightweight, so I can add it to my inside workstation, and not have to leave the heat/ac to go drill a hole in the garage. This press weighs well under 40 pounds and doesn't take up too much space on my inside workbench. My 'good' drill press is not something you'd want to move around a lot.
