A magnetic drill press includes a housing, a magnetic base coupled to the housing for engagement with a workpiece, and a motor carriage slidably coupled to the base housing. The magnetic drill press further includes an electric motor supported by the motor carriage and configured to rotate a bit about a bit axis, and a spindle assembly supported by the housing and coupled to the motor carriage for selectively positioning the motor carriage relative to the housing. The magnetic drill press further includes a handle hub coupled to the spindle assembly, and a ratchet assembly including a ratchet head coupled to the handle hub and a ratchet handle coupled to the ratchet head for actuating the spindle assembly by reciprocating motion of the ratchet handle.

A drilling machine, in particular a magnetic core drilling machine. The drilling machine having a magnetic base to detachably secure the drilling machine to a surface. A drive motor is arranged in a housing and has a rotor shaft with a rotor shaft longitudinal axis that is connected in a power-transmitting manner via a gear mechanism to a tool spindle with a spindle longitudinal axis. A tool holder is connected to the tool spindle to receive a drilling tool. The spindle longitudinal axis is aligned substantially parallel to the longitudinal axis of the rotor shaft, and the tool spindle is axially adjusted along the longitudinal axis of the spindle relative to the drive motor and the magnetic base.

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 method for processing a drilling location in a confined area of a workpiece along a drilling axis A using an end effector is disclosed. The method comprises positioning the end effector relative to the drilling location of the workpiece, clamping the workpiece between a clamp of the end effector and a pressure foot of the end effector, wherein the pressure foot supports the clamp movable relative to the pressure foot, and drilling the workpiece with a flat angle drill of the end effector.

A pilot pin assembly is slidably receivable within a tool bit of a drill press. The pilot pin assembly includes a first pin defining an interior cavity, and a second pin at least partially received within the interior cavity of the first pin. A spring is positioned within the interior cavity for biasing the second pin toward an extended position relative to the first pin.
