WEN 4206T 2.3-Amp 8-Inch 5-Speed Benchtop Drill Press

WEN 4206T 2.3-Amp 8-Inch 5-Speed Benchtop Drill Press

Q: what is the difference between this 4206 model and the 4208?

Not much, 4206 has a higher 60 RPM and the Chuck capacity goes to a 1/20 to 1/2 in on the 4206 Model and the 4208 is a 1/16 to 1/2. So there is not much difference

Q: Would this drill thru a 4 by 4 by 8 post for lag bolts for patio... rookie here.

It's very possible if you have a longer drill bit. The issue would be if you decide to add a vice, or other holding device to the table, you may not have enough room to get the bit in and out. I bought this drill for a project and ended up returning it because there was not enough space to get the bit in and out of the chuck with the vice on table. If you put the 4x4 on the table directly, make sure you secure it. It may be wise to have another person support the end you are drilling because a 8 ft board will bend. support on the long end is a must. One important thing, this will only work if drilling on the side. If you need to drill the top, a hand drill is a must. After returning this item, I bought a Skil 1/2 corded drill. For me it worked a lot better than this. Hope this helps with making your decision easier.

Q: Can you attach a Mortiser attachment to it?

A mortiser can be attached but you are limited on the thickness of the material you can use because of the limited travel on the quill. For that kind of use I would recommend the next larger drill press. I like mine really well but wish I got the larger machine .
