    Good buy, I wouldn't be without mine. I also added the XY coordinate table and an indexing chuck to mine as I could afford them which allows you to make much more use of the drill's in built accuracy.

    I bought a chuck, a precision table and a vice grip as well.

    It wont improve my soldering though. :avatar:

    Cheers

    The Proxxon 24260 is the better vice grip because it is made from milled steel... that's the one you have bought, the cheaper one is the MS4 which is made from die-cast zinc and has a lesser jaw opening of 34mm.

    Received a delivery date ...... tomorrow ( or is that today ). Looking forward to pressing it into action. Also ordered new needle files from Bacho. I have used their side cutters and pliers before in my sparky days. Good quality tools. A verbier gauge also on route.

    Cheers
