A drill press or 'pillar drill' is used to drill very accurate holes in many mediums, wood, metals, plastics,etc. Most common home drill presses will accept bits up to 1/2" diameter, and have a 6-9" throat. The advantages of a drill press include drilling larger holes and repeated accurate holes by use of simple jigs. -Industrial drill presses can be huge and take many different tools such as 'milling' bits and 'square hole' drills. They often have a coolant feed for heavy metal drilling.
