Drill Wood, Plastic & Metals without Burning or Dulling Your Bits

A Drill Press is an important component of any Woodworking/ D-I-Y activity. The Shopsmith Drill Press will ensure you have power and speed control to avoid burning your workpieces or large diameter bits.

Big Work Surface, But No Extra Space Required

Large enough to support your biggest projects without giving up a large amount of workshop floor space.

Don’t Risk Ruining a Great Project by Using the Wrong Speed

Change speeds instantly by simply turning a dial. No changing of belts or pulleys needed.

Get the Job Done with Maximum Capacities

Drill to the center of a piece of stock up to 16-1/2" wide. Enjoy 25" of chuck-to-worktable surface distance and 58" of chuck-to-floor distance. Get a full 4-1/4" of up-down spindle travel controlled by a convenient, graduated hole depth indicator and easy-to-set adjustable stop.

The Only Drill Press with Twin, Non-twisting Support Columns

Where other drill presses have single columns, the Shopsmith power plant and table are supported by two large diameter columns. As the headstock and carriage move independently along the full length of the columns, both remain in perfect alignment with one another, without twisting.

Supreme Versatility

Tilt this table from 0 to 90° and lock it firmly in position at both sides with a quick flip of a single lever. Use the machine's rip fence as a positioning jig and rotate the rack-and-pinion table height wheel to move the table in and out, creating a set-up for drilling a row of shelf pin holes all equally spaced from the workpiece edge. Tilt the table again to form a V-Block set-up for drilling round objects or creating screw pockets - perfect for joining tops to table aprons or connecting cabinet rails and stiles.

Note: Rip Fence Sold Separately on the MARK 520S.
