perhaps this won't be helpful because many are (sensibly) going to drill presses, but it's a good price on a very good brand, from a seller with excellent CS

when i've gone into home depot the only drill i could find for $30usd was a rather craptastic-looking one (i forget the brand). i need something all-purpose to do a lot of other things besides just drill holes for amp-boxes, so this is useful to me.

I don't know how uzziah came by this link, and I sure don't want this whole forum going off its meds again, but this link has picked up somewhere a commercial "tail", the equivalent of a computer virus:

Someone is picking up a fatwallet.com kickback on every sale made through this link, making it an inappropriate link for our forum.

Here's a clean link to the same page:

I completely agree about it being inappropriate for the forum but comparing it to a virus? That's a bit extreme isnt it?



I'm now wondering why my virus scanner didnt pick up on it.

THanks for the info.

How about adding Head-fi's ref tag to it instead?

FYI. One reason that it is inexpensive is that it is a refurb...

To quote Amazon:

"Factory reconditioned to perform like new!"
