Description

Remember when power tools were actually powerful? WEN’s 12-inch swing, variable speed drill press with laser centering device, is a powerhouse for your shop. Packed with features that you’ll find in larger more industrial type drill presses. This bench-top, cast iron drill press has the power to drill through metal, wood and other materials. Max drill capacity is 5/8” in 1” thick cast iron. The variable speed feature allows you to target in the exact speed (infinitely from 580-3200 RPM) that works for your project. While you are working you simply move a lever and adjust the speed as needed. No pulleys and belts to change! Our design uses a mechanical variable speed which allows for the same power and torque through the entire speed range. A digital readout powered by LED’s displays the running speed. Constructed with a rigid frame consisting of cast iron: head, table, and base, ensures accurate holes. Its powerful induction motor features ball bearings for an extended life and it all comes together with smooth and balanced performance even at high speeds. The 5/8” chuck with MT2 spindle taper gives you versatility with a variety of bits and features on-board chuck key storage, so you never have to hunt around for it. Worktable bevels 45° left and right for those tricky operations for the perfect right angles consistently. Base has predrilled holes for mounting onto a bench or work stand. Slotted table allows for mounting clamps and vises for effective mounting. The X-pattern laser locks-on to your drill points saving on guesswork and sparing expensive materials. A versatile and valuable tool for any shop especially when you expand its range of use with optional accessories such as mortising attachments, drum sanders, circle cutters, etc. Since 1951, WEN has proudly produced innovative powered tools focused on value delivering meaningful features that will help you complete and enjoy the work as much as the project. Remember when you could drill with laser-precision? Remember WEN.

  • Solid drill press with nice features at a reasonable price. Just right for my home woodworking shop.
Size: 5-Amp Motor
This unit was a replacement for a smaller Wen model, my starter drill press. This larger more powerful and heavier duty model is great and at a good price point. The depth of the plunge 2" which works for me. I enjoy the plunge stop which is quite sturdy. There is a built in work light and a laser centering beam that are very helpful. I couldn't be happier. This is just what my woodworking shop needed. ... show more

  • A retired Tool Maker's "ideal" Woodworking Drill Press
I'm a retired Tool Maker. I purchased this drill press because my lovely Delta DP350's variable speed transmission failed and Delta stopped offering spare parts for it, I had to Scrap it out. ouch! So, I carefully reviewed all the available Drill Press offerings. This Wen 4212 has the best feature set and the best price, my worry was that it's made in China. I called Wen ( who actually answered the Phone which gave me confidence that they support their products ). The Press was shipped to me, it arrived very quickly, assembled quickly and worked beautifully. I'm pleased. I use this Press on every project, I use it every day, it's as smooth as butter in operation. I'm accustomed to a Big Clausing Industrial drill press and Bridgeport Milling machines so I have experience in these things. Con: No spindle lock. I'm adjusting to this missing element and may perform "surgery" to the Press to include this important feature. Pro: It's actually better than I can use. It has 5/8" Chucking ( I need only 1/2" ) I'd thought that I'd replace the Key'd chuck with a keyless except the supplied chuck is better than any key'd chuck I've ever encountered ( I'm loving the supplied chuck ). The Lasers are wonderful ( I've never had that feature on a Machine and thought it would be "training wheels" but it turned out to be invaluable. ( I love it ). The Variable speed is superb. I replaced the supplied Light bulb with a 80 Watt equivalent LED bulb to great result. This is an ideal woodworker's drill press, it's probably not an Industrial Steel workhorse press, it has sufficient power for my largest Forstner Bit ( 2 1/4" ). I own a WEN 4 X 36 Bench Sander which is also superb. I'm considering other WEN products! , they seem to be presenting the best "Value for Money" ... show more

  • Astounding quality and value for $250.00
First off, I am not a 5 star rate-r. The fifth star, for me, relates to product manufacturer customer service. Since Amazon is the customer service front end it would be silly to rate it 5 star. The drill press, when received, was well packaged and free from exterior damage. The interior packaging was well done with a Styrofoam clam-shell that protected each of the components from drop-age as well as separating each of the assemblies. The press assembled in about 15 minutes and and additional 10 minutes of adjustment. The instructions were clear and in english but really I only referred to the instruction to verify chuck install. Before I assembled I did clean the smoo off of the column, table, and base. The head unit only weighs about 35lbs so setting it atop the column wasn't to difficult. Once I had the head unit installed I then did a good job of cleaning the quill, taper and chuck. It is imperative to do an excellent job of cleaning the this assembly to get a tight(safe) fit that has minimal run-out. The first thing I did to determine if the motor had enough power was to load a 1-5/8" Forsner bit and drill some 5/4" oak... it stalled on the first three but did better the more holes I drilled. I attribute that to "wearing in the belt and pulley". I have had no more issues with stalling. Overall quality of the tool is exceptional considering it was only $250.00, $20.00 less than Hazard Fraught. All accessory lights run through the main switch(no batteries). Lasers are a crutch and should not be relied on for accuracy. The work light is nice. The digital readout out is for general reference at best but it is nice as well as helpful. The adjustable speed is the ticket, I love it. My prior drill press needed belt changes so I ran it at 900rpm and dealt with it. Now, I can slow it down for steel with a flip of the lever. WHAT THIS PRESS IS NOT: This is not a $2000.00 Powermatic press, $300 Micro-Mark Micro press, or a $3500 Dayton Mill Press. This is not an industrial press (they don't claim it is) WHAT THIS PRESS IS: An exceptional value hobby or light production drill press. If this drill press is in your Garage shop it will do very well for you. ... show more
