  1. can a drill chisel be used with this press?

    1. This drill press is too small to use with a drill chisel. Please see the 1 HP option, item 426423, this will work with a drill chisel.

      Helpful?

    2. This drill press is only a 1/2 HP, for a more heavy-duty drill press that would work with a drill chisel see my recommendations below.

      Helpful?

  2. Picture shows a stand, specs say no stand. Which is it?

    8 1/2" drill press. Key Specs-stand include? No. Picture shows stand. How do you support the drill and motor without a stand?

    1. Has the stand as pictured. recommend bolting base to bench to keep press from flipping over if you were drilling and bit seized in work piece.

      Helpful?

    2. The stand is included with the Drill Press.

    1. Does not have a radial arm.

      Helpful?

  5. Is it possible to buy parts to add a Rack and Cranking Table

    1. Thank you for reaching out. The drill press dimensions are (W × D × H): 9" × 17" × 23".

  7. Where would I get a drill chuck key for a shopfox bench top drill model# w1667

    1 answer

    1. The drill chuck key is part number PX1667056 and can be purchased through the manufacturer directly.

      Helpful?

  8. Can this be used for mortising

    1 answer
    Originally posted on grizzly.com

    1. We appreciate your inquiry. The drill press lacks the necessary sturdiness to withstand the force required for making a mortise. There is a high risk of damaging or breaking the pinion shaft or the handle shafts while attempting to do so.

  9. is there a work light accessory for the fox 81/2 inch drill press

    1 answer
    Originally posted on grizzly.com

    1. We appreciate your question. You might consider looking at the T33680. This magnetic gooseneck LED light has a magnetic base and can be placed on the side of the headstock and adjusted in many positions.

  10. Who is manufacturer

    1 answer

    1. The press is manufactured in China for Shop Fox.
