The image on the cover of Java Power Tools is a drill press, a necessity in any workshop
because of its high-precision drilling capabilities. A drill press consists of a base, column
(or pillar), table, spindle (or quill), and drill head, which is usually driven by an induction
motor. There are several advantages to working with a drill press rather than a
handheld drill: less effort is required to apply the drill to the workpiece, and a lever
working on a rack and pinion controls the movement of the chuck and spindle, giving
the operator a considerable mechanical advantage; the drill can be mounted on a stand
or secured to a workbench, making the operation more secure; and the angle of the
spindle is fixed in relation to the table, allowing holes to be drilled accurately and
repetitively.
