I own a Delta mortising attachment kit for about 6 months which i used only once to try it, only drilled one hole with it. About 3 weeks ago I bought the Ridgid drill press DP1550. What a disapointment when I found that the Delta mortising kit does not fit well on my new american built drill press. Any one has any suggestion?

The Ridgid DP1550 is built in China not the US.

The Harbor Freight machine is on sale at $99 and I've had one over a year and not had any problems with it. Great for the money considering how often you used your Delta attachment
