Full Boar pedestal drill on clearance

[Noyade]

I'm not sure if every Bunnings store is the same - but mine now has on clearance the Full Boar pedestal drill.

Current price is $224 - this is around $70 less than the smaller Ryobi bench-top drill press in store.

I think this is a remarkable buy - and considering a 750 watt motor.

Just a heads-up.

Cheers!

G'day mate,

Yeah that's a good buy and these days I usually look but don't buy because I've past that age point (78 next month) where I need to curtail new purchases or upgrades. Having said that I recently purchased this Ozito Plunge Saw  😃 

Tip: Wait for the missus to be somewhere else then transfer from vehicle to workshop 😎

Drill press bench.

G'day Alan.

"Yeah that's a good buy"

Yes, I believe so. I don't know Bunning's clearance pricing procedure - but I suspect that price will get even lower if the stock does not sell.

I was there the other day and none were sold since I made the opening post above - but if you continue to wait, with my luck a bus load of pedestal drill seekers will turn up and buy the lot in one go. 😁

Nice plunge saw Alan - any project thoughts?

"I need to curtail new purchases or upgrades."

I was feeling the same way until recently. Life is short and I would like to try/buy a few things and upgrade for the sheer fun and enjoyment of it. 

Budget permitting.

The recent table-saw purchase has been absolutely fabulous. Did I 'really' need it? Probably not - but it has been a wonderful experience considering what I have been using.

Cheers!
