The hand power tools I couldn't live without, but when I need that precision hole in 'just the right spot or depth' I really think the drill press is worth it's weight in gold. The belt/disc grinder though gets used for a LOT of things I never would have thought about doing with it before I had it. The only thing, and I don't want to start any kind of a argument here, if your going to go for these, buy quality vs some cheap knock off you might find like in a HF clearance aisle. I learned this the expensive way with my first drill press. Good luck and happy building
