BENCH DRILL REVIEW: Bosch PBD 40 (Not Sponsored)

Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль

Today, I review my brand new bench drill. You guys voted that I buy it over the cheaper models and I have to say... VERY impressed! It has its flaws but they are far outweighed by the benefits. This is a longer video than usual as this beast has several things that needed to be covered.
WHERE CAN I BUY THIS BEAST?
I bought mine from Screwfix (UK) but it's also available from amazon.

    Ive had a PBD40 for about a year and im a big fan. It took 10 mins to set up and about a half hour of playing with scrap stock to get up and running. The variable speed and incredibly accurate depth stop are superb. You said a few times "its going to get noisey" but its worth pointing out this drill is actually pretty quiet even at full speed. Its much quieter than either of my hand drills or circular saw, in fact I reckon the only power tool I have that's quieter is my jigsaw. One big feature which you didnt really stress is how light and compact it is. If like me, you have limited space, you can store this under you bench when not needed without any real effort or risk to your back. The only negative ive found is the laser cross being blocked by large bits but its hard to see how you could design around the laws of physics - to be accurate the laser has to shine from above and if you put something in the way, then you can't use it.

    Side note on dowels and screws. I often glue things together using screws (or screws and fender washers), once the glue sets I’ll back out the screws and re-drill holes for exposed dowels. I also use setup pins of various diameters to center the chuck on holes before clamping.

    👍👏 I had a traditional type drill press that I bought from Wickes probably more than 20 years ago and never used because the chuck refused to properly align with the drive shaft and the point of the drill bit was waving all over the place. After seeing another review of this Bosch, several months ago, I just had to have one and quite literally have not stopped using it. As you found, it is pinpoint accurate straight out of the box. The aluminium base plate won't rust either as the old Wickes one had done.

    The red band on the chuck is a lock, so you hand tighten, then turn the lock & it grips the drillbit tight. I love the chuck. Really quick & easy to change bits without a key. Enjoy. Had one of these for a couple of years & no grumbles.

    For a first drill press, youve hit the jackpot for its price range. Mine first was cheap belt Parkside from Lidl market. Loved the sound of the oldschool belt system, but it had that shelf that moved up and down, the pipe that hold it was a 1mm thin aluminium pipe and the wobble of the chuck. Sold it and then finally got myself the same Bosch one. Only downsize is the motor is noisy on higher rpm.

    I've had one a year or so. Red plastic lever that clamps the head to the pillar has stripped, laser lines are centred but more than 1mm thick so of limited use, the clamp is horrible, the pillar/table mount is insufficiently robust and flexes under pressure applied to wheel. Chuck has both play and runout. However the drill head with variable speed, lights and depth control is great. Bosch Green construction really lets this potentially awesome unit down.

    Mate so pleased you’ve got it I know you’ll get plenty of use out of it. A few points to note - lasers are the same with Forstner bits on any pillar drill I have the same issue on my jet one - I got a sewing machine light off eBay for less than a tenner it had a magnetic base with a switch and flexible shaft so you can position it wherever you want. - you can always use a small block of wood fixed to the base with CA glue as a stop block. Once you’re finished just knock it off and it leaves no mark on the metal base I do it all the time on mine and my chop saw. - the base looks like it has T slots in it so maybe you could get some clamps to slide in where you need them. Nice one buddy all you need next is errr loads more tools 😂 👍🏻

    The sewing machine light is such a great shout! Little hacks like that make the world of difference. Working on a video now, I use a desk lamp but it was too tall and kind of made the shadows worse. I'll get on Ebay! I'll also try the CA glue trick. I made a jig to do my bottle openers this afternoon that hooks into the t-track and it worked a treat! I don't want to be doing that on every project though. Sadly, I've already promised myself (and the wife) no more tools until this one has paid for itself 🤣🤣

That way you dont have to aim every time.

I only have one of those cheap simple benchtop versions and I actually think it works quite nice, the wobble you were mentioning is not present between the drill and the plate, it is the whole thing that is a bit wonky, but as long as its secure between the drill and the plate I think its fine. @@justbswoodworking

    I have had mine for a few years. Not so keen on the wheel (some people offer 3D printed handles for it). Height adjustment could be easier - you can use the wheel to push it down, but to get the stop up is a bit tricky. I love the depth gauge, and also like how you can place it on large work pieces and drill anywhere. It is starting to make some noises, but still works well. I would buy a higher quality blue version...

    You were right to buy this one instead of a really cheap one. I had the cheapest Parkside model for 2 years. It helped me out a lot, but the whole time I knew I was going to upgrade at some point. The chuck sucks and has crazy run out, changing the speed is a PITA, the table was not square (and not adjustable, had to make another one with shims), etc. The first one I got died after 6 months. So. Many. Issues. I bought the Bosch a year ago, and it's a game changer. It's not perfect (the wheel sucks IMO), but it's a solid base. The electronic speed change is awesome, so useful when switching back and forth between forstner and regular bits. The small clamp that comes with it works well. I made a bigger fence with stop blocks. I broke one of those red lever/clamps really quick. Probably because I'm an idiot. I remade one with a M8 bolt and a massive beech knob, it works better than the original, so it's not a problem :) I don't like the quick release chuck, I think I will upgrade it with a key chuck at one point. It has some small issues and it's small for a pilar drill, but it works really well. If you want something really better, it's going to cost double or triple. I love mine.

    I bought one of these a little while ago, to replace my very old and well-used large Clarke drill press. I no longer have to shift the belts around a couple of pulleys to change speed, which is fantastic. My garage workshop is small and damp, so the lack of vulnerable steel on this Bosch drill made it desirable, as does its smaller footprint, with no lumpy motor sticking out of its rear. Another reason was that it has a fixed base /table. I sometimes use a really heavy compound table, which often made the tilting table on the Clarke, er, tilt when I didn't want to. This problem has gone away with the Bosch. For what it's worth I never use the lasers or the electronic depth stop. I haven't had any regrets whatsoever about buying this drill and am sure you'll not either.

I do have a 12 speed belt driven pillar drill, that as you said, mostly left at one speed ,as a hasell to change speed, so now that is reserved for only large holes in metals. the sheppach is light enough that i have mounted it to a french cleat wall, so if i want move to another spot in workshop, its easy.

    Good "unboxing" cause you've shown lots people would miss like the putting together. I was looking at the Titan but the reviews on screw fix isn't great cause of the plastic base. Regarding the wheel, last time I used a drill press was in school in the late 80s. If that wheel is metal i assume someone who knows what they are doing could just drill a hole in the side of the wheel and fit a ball on it instead.

    Congratulations! Simply being able to drill a 90 degree hole is a huge step forward. How do I know? I did just what you did, not Bosch, but a drill press nonetheless. As for the fence being square; don't worry. It does not matter. The hole is round. There is not up, down, left, or right. Once you set the fence, the drill will always make a round hole in exactly the place. To test, draw a line down the middle of a piece of wood, better yet, along a line the is not the middle, but parallel to one edge. Push the board into the fence and drill a hole. Slide the wood a random distance, and drill another hole, and then again. Each hole will be along the line. This can be used to remove a bunch of waste if you need a mortise. That digital depth stop has me jealous. Make some holes!

    I figured out the whole fence thing when I started using it and cringed that I left it in the video! Oh well, it's not the most stupid thing I've said on camera 🤣🤣🤣 That's a great shout on a mortise. I've been wanting to try out some traditional joinery for a while and that tip will certainly save me the majority of the chisel work! Cheers mate

    That thing looks amazing. While I'm still happy with the wen drill press, the digital depth stop on this thing would have been 100% worth the extra money. Sell enough bottle openers, and it will pay for itself in no time at all.

    I'm on my second one of these replaced by Bosch due to the drill run-out. The replacement one is no better. The supplied chuck is designed for Percussion (impact / Hammer) drills, not for precision. I hope yours is better. Good luck!

    Yes,I kept the drill and bought a new chuck for £20 made by Jacob’s. Fitted it and it runs very true and now I’m very happy with it. There is another video on YT showing how to remove the chuck from this machine, which is what I followed.

    I've got the Trtion. Picked it up on offer from ScrewFix for about £300 (although think it's gone up in price now). Its pretty good. I've never had anything better so I can't compare it. Only downside is the extraction. the 'exhaust' doesn't work very well with a shop vac.

    It gets flat! As for measurement, it's a bit of an eyeball thing. the gauge is a triangle that sits about 5mm from he scale so I generally use a combination square as I go if I'm going for accuracy.

    Surprised no one has mentioned the dreadful runout in the chuck shaft! I bought one new 4 months ago and couldn’t believe the amount of play in the shaft. After a bit of searching KZread, I bit the bullet and replaced the ill fitting needle bearing at the top of the secondary shaft with a pair of ball bearings from Amazon. Total cost £5, no more runout!

    I own a Bosch pbd 40, the laser is not accurate at all, turn it off, don't use it, the drill head is wobbling a little bit witch you didn't mention and the fence is just rubbish, throw it away, make a new one, but these things can be overcome if you know how. "hooked on wood" also did mention this issues, I also notice it before he did. But for me it's fine.
