We have two drill presses- this one in the wood shop, and a heavier one in the metal area [[Drill Press Metal / Kolomboor metaal|Drill Press Metal]]. 

Cutting wood in the metal area is fine. Cutting metal in the wood area is frowned upon. If you do so - de-grease the machine/plateau post use !

== Safety ==
The drill press in the Wood Shop is classed as a normal, somewhat dangerous machine: instructions strongly advised but not mandatory. It can be used any hours -- but be kind to our neighbours.

Use of safety glasses will generally be needed. And the use of gloves is possible; but a mixed blessing. It increases the risk of your glove (and with it your finger) getting twisted around the drill/rotating head.

Its main risks are flying sharp bits, getting caught in something rotating or your workpiece rotating/spinning.

So clamp things well.
