Can I use a 1/2" drill bit with a 1/4" shank to drill into a coin?

Hi Steve, No, there is not enough torque/power in this drill press and the speed too fast. This drill press is only for small size drill bits and high speed. Good luck. Bert

1/2 inch hole size is big for a coin ,the problem is holding the coin secure not to damage the coin or cause harm to yourself. glue the coin to a 3/4 in piece of wood and let it dry ,use good glue that will come loose after. What you do is at your own risk . You might try to step drill starting with a small hole working up to the larger size. Remember easy pressure and keep your hands clear of the drill bit and coin . also if you are in doubt take it to a machine shop.

I have a regular Ryobi drill and it works great(not impact). It uses a 1/4" hex bit

Not exactly sure about the largest bit this tool will accept (maybe about 3/4").You will probably need to check on a much larger tool.

any bit with up to a 1/8" shank. So the answer would be yes you can as the 1/8 is the largest bit in the set, the smallest is like a sewing needle, very tiny.

It comes with a 1/4" shank bit, I am not sure if it accepts 1/2" shank bits, but I believe it is set up for the included 1/4" bit

It won't take 1/2" shank drill bits. It will only take 3/8 and smaller. They don't have to be Festool bits.

Yes, you need to buy 1/4" hex shank drill bits. I believe dewalt has a 22 piece bit bid for around $19. The impact driver will drill holes but it's not what it's best at. Better off getting the drill/driver & impact combo

Yes no problem. But 2 1/4*85 will not work as suggested below, unless it has a small core. Be careful what you buy. But this will work.

No, it is a impact for screwing long screws or bolts. The chuck only excepts a 1/4" hex shank. I don't believe they make a 1/4" hex concrete bit.

you will have to put a reducer on the bits as they are primarily hex shaft 1/4 inch. I would suggest getting a drill driver and save the hassle.

I think that a 1/4" bit will fit into the chuck, but the motor doesn't have the torque to push it through anything harder than wax. This machine is a sweet running little drill press, but it is seriously lacking torque. It is only for drilling very small holes in light or thin material. It took me several minutes to drill a 1/8" hole in 1/4" aluminum. Good machine for what it's made for.

It is called a 1/4 " hex bit attachment. It is designed for hex bits that have a bottleneck style that lock into place.

You can use any bit that has a 1/4 hex shank head so Yes with the "TEKTON 2928 14-Piece Power Nut Driver Bit Set" and No you can not use it with the "Anytime Tools 4 piece Flexible Socket Extension Flex Bar Ratchet Auto/Mechanic Tools 1/4" Drive & 3/8" Drive". Forgot to add that you can obviously use the 1/4 drive and 3/8 drive Flexible socket set if you use an adapter (1/4 hex head to 1/4 drive) or (1/4 hex head to 3/8 drive).

This will accept any 1/8" or 1/4" bit, Just put the correct collet in and you're good to go. I am not sure that you can lay hand on the 1/4" carbide bit, however. They were laying low when I looked for them. Rotozip makes a 5/32", but DeWalt doesn't make such a collet. They might interchange. I didn't need to know bad enuf to find out.

Yes it will. It will work with any 1/4-Inch hex shank bit/tool that you would like to use with it.

The chuck opens up to a maximum diameter of 3/8-in. Your 1/2-in bit would have to have a reduced shank diameter. It is pretty easy to find larger bits with a 3/8-in shank diameter.

The Rikon 30-100 will accept a 1/2 inch drill bit. I am not aware of an adapter to accept larger drill bits.
