This is the current drill press that replaced the 17-900 halfway through the 1999 season. The big attraction is the speed control on the front of the hood. As with several of the other tools, this one has undergone a change in livery to which a sharp eyed visitor alerted me (the big difference is in the color of the hood—black in the first model, gray in the later). The change occurred between the 16th and 17th seasons. It's essentially the same drill press (although maybe a 17-990X), so I'm not going to bother differentiating it. It'll suffice that it's been noted here. Thanks to my friend, Tony Haukap, for bringing my attention to the change. Appearances: Episodes
