Tools & Stuff Posted April 30, 2016 Report Share Posted April 30, 2016 Bosch PBD 40 Bench Drill Unboxing and setup video This is only a green tool, any news on a blue version? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KnarlyCarl Posted May 1, 2016 Report Share Posted May 1, 2016 That's amazing never knew this was out there! So many cool useful user friendly features, with the whole head assembly moving, its not restricted to just how long the spindle can move. Isn't Bosch blue though? Did you mean the other way around?

kruton Posted May 1, 2016 Report Share Posted May 1, 2016 If that does show up in blue there will be one sitting in my garage! That is a nice little unit. I'm curious what the price point would be.

Sent from my SCH-I535 using Tapatalk Bosch has a green 'DIY' range for home / light users etc, and a blue range for professional / heavy users, but unfortunately this tool is only made as a green DIY model. Hopefully Bosch will learn from this model and its small problems and make a beefier Blue version. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sent from my SM-N900V using Tapatalk The price in NZ for this model is around the $400 -$450 mark (US$280 -$310) which makes it a lot more expensive than a small drill press, but it has a lot of features you can't get on a cheap drill press. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kruton Posted May 2, 2016 Report Share Posted May 2, 2016 I looked around on some other forums and a Bosch associate said there were no plans for a blue version available in the states. Sent from my SM-N900V using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ok... seems to be 120 or 125mm from the inside of the column and the centre of the chuck. I ordered drill last week and will update the measurement 100% if anyone wants to know.
