I use few pieces larger than 1/2" so the 3/4" would be ok for me; they do have larger, and more expensive, units. I just think it would be nice to have a precise drill press although really I'm just dreaming.

Haans, I was looking at that unit earlier this year and can't afford it either so guess I'll stick with my Grizzly 14" floor model and be thankful I have a drill press at all.
