i was at the right place at the right time (that never happens to me)
i was on a service call fixing a machine for a company in toronto, after fixing the machine i went to the foremans office to see him about some other stuff. on the floor in his office was this little sensitive drill press
i said to him that i could use a drill press like that for my model building, he looked at me and said "it's yours"
so it just goes to show that some times all you have to do is ask! ;D
when i got it home i drilled a #80 hole (.013") through a piece of 1/4" steel like it was butter.
i have tried to drill small holes like that with my unimat lathe/drill press and never had much luck.
but with this little drill press it is a breeze.
so next time you see something you would like just ask........you never know
