How to Use a Drill Press

A drill press is used for drilling holes in wood as well as metal. The following is a video on how to use a drill press:

As stated in the video, you must hold down the piece of wood you are planning to drill a hole in securely with your free hand, then slowly lower the drill until in begins to drill through the wood. Continue lowering until the drill has fully gone through the wood. A useful tip when using the drill press would be to mark where you want the hole to be with a marker before drilling, as the hole will be more precise and in the correct position.
