for me, drill press was a "waited too long item".
angle grinder and hitachi li-ion recip saw --I couldn't live without them.
a word of warning on your grinder. forget safety glasses or full face shields as protection. get a fully eye-enclosing goggle of some type. (i use my old ski goggles)
Twice now in 2 years i've had to have metal removed from my eye. first was with safety glasses, 2nd was with full shield.
The culprit was old grinding debris flying out straight up out of the motor vents when working at waist level. shot right up under the glasses and shield. Nothing got me off the work piece/disc spray. hit the trigger and "ouch".
