Best place to buy a ball-drilling setup?
« on: November 25, 2006, 12:02:47 PM »
I want to learn how to drill my own stuff, so I'd like to know where everyone goes to buy their presses and etc.

Thanks!

By the way, I'm not rich or anything, so I'd LIKE to keep it around $500 or less, but I'll see what I can do..

Thanks again.

You'll have to wait for a place that has ball drilling equip like Kmart to go broke again.

Used Jigs are like 250 to 300 pre ship.  Drill presses used like 300.
Shipping up to 300!  That does not include drill bits.

I've heard of guys getting them when Kmart went under for about $350.

REgards,

Just a couple days ago somebody on this forum had a Jet Drill, Jig and Innovative Spinner for $1200, or, $1350 shipped. I know this is over your budget but I just thought I'd mention it.
