As described in the last post, the Bosch PBD 40 has to rest on a solid base in order to use it properly. Though tests were initially performed by holding in place with only dumbbell weights (!) so it didn't tip over, a proper solution had to be found. And sure enough - Bosch provides yet another product just for this purpose - the Bosch PTA 2400. Though its main target - as in fixing to it - are the mitre saws, the PBD 40 is listed amongst the devices compatible as well. So at the beginning of this month I purchased one. It's really sturdy, and at a bit over 20 kg, there's no risk of the drill press - itself weighing 11 kg - to topple over. I've been using the drill press for the last 2 weeks almost daily, and the table is definitely worth the investment. Bonus - for the rather little apartment I currently reside in - the box it comes packaged in is rather compact.
I'm posting the pictures taken during unboxing - they proved their worth when putting it back today for storing until the time for the next woodworking session comes.
