WEN DPA2412T 24 in. x 12 in. Drill Press Table with an Adjustable Fence and Stop Block

One of those shop fixtures I was “going to build” for a long time. When I was able to score this one on sale, the process went from a couple of hours to about 5-minutes. Simple, intuitive assembly (instructions are included, though) and cost about what I’d have spent on its components.Spacious surface, functional design, and infinitely useful.

Excellent, well made, clean design

I received the table packaged well and with no blemishes; it's a very smooth finish. All parts are cut perfectly and are completely square. The table edging is a thick plastic laminate that appears to be adhered well. The scales that are stuck to the top of the table are off (1/16" short over 11") but can be used as reference I guess. The rails and table mounts are as described by others here. They're not going to hold under any reasonable force; I didn't even try. I immediately went ahead and disassembled the table and bedded the rails and table mounts in epoxy. After the epoxy was cured, I assembled the table and mounted it to my Wen 10" press. I seems very flat sturdy and the table mounts line up perfectly underneath. I do plan on hardening the exposed MDF edges and fence channel with polyurethane (using a bore brush and cleaning rod for the channel). All and all, not too bad for the price but don't expect it to function as is right out of the box. BTW, I installed a South Bend chuck on the press and got my runout down to .0002"!!! These chucks are amazing for for the price.

Nice little table. Besides setting it up as a clamping surface I use an end mill to finish material edges or cut. Works well Much heavier construction than it looks online.

I wasn't expecting much for the price, but it will serve it's purpose

I received this table tonight and installed it on my WEN Drill Press. I loved how easily it attached to my drill press table, and it was very secure. As I was installing it I noticed that the head of the end screw in the left T-Track wasn't flush, so I got a screwdriver to tighten it. It was stripped. After I got everything put together I wanted to try my new T-Track clamps. They wouldn't fit into the T-Track. My bench grinder is right next to my drill press, so I just ground down the edges until they fit. I placed a piece of wood on the table and put in the right clamp and tightened it down. Worked great. Put in the left clamp and tried to tighten it, and it just pulled up the whole T-Track. I'm returning it to Amazon for a replacement. I think when I get the replacement I'll replace the screws with longer screws, and possibly glue the T-Track in place also. I like this table, just not sure it's worth $50. When I get the replacement I'll revise my review if everything works OK.Update: I received the replacement table. Everything looked good, and the screws in the T-Tracks looked sturdy. Installed the table, and then got to work using it on a project I was doing. I have T-Track clamps to hold my work while I'm drilling. I put one in the left T-Track just fine, but when I went to tighten the one in the right T-Track, it just pulled up the T-Track. I think this is a serious design flaw. The screws must be too short to be able to withstand the pressure since they are screwed into MDF. I bought some machine screws with a flat Phillips head. I'm going to drill completely through the existing screw holes and use these machine screws with nuts on the bottom. I'm also going to glue in the T-Tracks for good measure.One other design flaw. Since most newer drill presses have a handle on the post to raise and lower the table I had to mount the table quite a few inches from the post so it would clear the handle when I'm adjusting the height. If I need to use the fence for a project, this severely reduces the length of the item I'm able to drill. For this reason I don't see myself using the fence much.While I'm not going to take away any more stars, I'm not going to add to them either. When I spend $50 for an item, I don't expect to have to modify it before I can use it.Update 2: I removed the screws from the T-Track. If you look at the photo I uploaded you can see they are only 1/2" screws, which means just slightly over 1/4" of the screw is in the MDF, which is not nearly enough to securely hold the T-Tracks in place when put under pressure of the T-Track clamps. I drilled a 1/8th inch hole completely through each of the 6 existing holes. I used #8-32 x 1" flat Phillips head machine screws. The head of these screws fit into the countersunk holes of the T-Track perfectly. To secure it on the bottom I used a flat washer, lock washer, and a nut. I decided I didn't need to glue the T-Tracks in place. I tested this out using my T-Track clamps and it's working great now. If anyone decides to purchase this table I strongly suggest making the same modification that I did.

Nice little table and easy to assemble. Beats the heck out of building one for the price. One thing, though, is the picture looks white but mine is kind of lavender color which I wouldn't have chosen. My wife said to get over it.

The table is not large, but it is made out of substantial materials. It is well designed, but setting the fence requires practice and patience. The problem is that both ends of the fence are tightened separately. Setting it up to drill parallel holes is a meticulous process. A combination square helps.
