Just to let you know...the Dremel drill press attachment is no longer being made. I discovered this when looking for one myself...tried all the usual places: Home Depot, Walmart, Canadian Tire, etc., then went onto the internet and was finally able to locate one at hobbylinc.com for $44.59. I have no idea why Dremel has discontinued making them.
Hope this helps anyone who is looking for one.

No wonder I couldn't find one anywhere! But, Linda, just as soon as I saw your post I went to hobbylinc and ordered one. Now I'll just wait to see if they actually have one to send me. Thanks very much for that information!

Not to be the pariah, but I threw mine away. I ended up drilling a block of wood the diameter of the flex shaft attachment and putting it into a regular drill press chuck. I found mine looked like the ticket but I couldn't get it to be accurate. The body clamp torqued the dremel and slowed it down. It went through carbon brushes like no tomorrow. The flex shaft slows down the dremel but you get a lot more flexibility with it. The flex shaft with a foot control is the way to go.

That just sucks! I want one too. Doc, I can't even picture what your talking about, guess I'm not mechanical enough.

Well, ordering from Hobbylinc didn't work. They had them on their site but sent me an email today that they don't have any in stock. Darn!
