Guido Henn building a Benchcrafted Roubo

What's the spindle reach on the Bosch?  It looks tiny.

I think 90mm

[member=11481]Guido Henn[/member]  Do you still own it and recommend it? Can you share what drill you have mounted in it?

Matt,

yes I still own it, I am really satisfied with it and I highly recommend it!   

The most important thing for me is the huge Y-arm-movement. And what I also like is that you can mount a spindle router motor (with 43 mm neck) instead of a drill. So you can expand your routing abilities by routing above of the workpiece, like I show in this Video (Min. 4:34): 

My favourite drill is a Protool DRP 13-2 EAQ which is not available anymore. But any drill with minimum 700 Watts, two speed settings and - important for a better round run (don't know the right english word) - without impact modus works fine in it.

Regards

Guido

I think “better round run” = better concentricity, = less runout.
