A drilling aid system which comprises a body with a first cavity, a shaft mounted to be able to rotate within the first cavity, a slider which has a proximal end mounted to be able to move in translation within the first cavity, where the slider has a second cavity which extends the first cavity, a collar that is able to move in translation on the shaft, a first compression spring having a first stiffness and pressing against the collar and against the proximal end of the slider, and a second compression spring having a second stiffness greater than the first stiffness, and pressing against the collar and against the proximal end of the body. A system of this kind makes it possible to make the user perceive that the end of the drilling operation is nigh and that therefore the force applied to the drill should be reduced.

A drilling device, including a motor, a battery, and a frame. The battery is electrically connected to the motor. The frame includes a base, a column supported by the base, and a drill support part configured to be movable relative to the base. The battery is disposed on the base such that the drill support part is configured to be movable relative to the battery.

This accessory, for a hand held drill, turns the drill into a portable drill press. To use this portable drill press, place the drill bit where you want it. Lean the drill forward until the base slides under the metal your drilling. The base is a lever and the drill and bit swings off it. The base holds the drill in place at a angle. When the drill is pulled straight, everything tightens up. The metal and the drill bit are pushed together with leverage. Turn the drill on and drill the hole by just holding the drill straight. This portable drill press is faster and easier to use, than drilling by hand.

A work station includes a working surface configured to support a tool assembly, a base portion supporting the working surface, a table removably coupled to one or more of the working surface and the base portion, an aperture formed in the table, the aperture configured to selectively receive a suction device, and a downdraft surface positioned on at least one side of the table. The downdraft surface includes a plurality of recesses in fluid communication with the aperture, and the plurality of recesses are configured to generate a downdraft.

A machining assembly with a drive unit (10) detachably mountable to the feed module (30) and moveable along a guide track on a machine stand via the feed module. The feed module is provided with a feed gear wheel (33) configured for engagement with a cog track on the machine stand. An electric drive motor (12) for rotating a spindle (13) and an electric feed motor (16) for rotating the feed gear wheel are arranged in a housing (11) of the drive unit. The drive unit comprises a drive member, which is rotatable by the feed motor and which is operatively connectable to the feed gear wheel via a torque transmitting coupling mechanism (50) when the drive unit is mounted to the feed module so as to allow the feed gear wheel to be rotated under the effect of the feed motor when the drive unit is mounted to the feed module.
