This is literally one of DW's smallest machines. We have the slightly newer version, the 922. We will likely replace ours with a bigger machine as well in the next year or so. A good Mach1 1220/2020 would be a nice upgrade to get longer than 250-300' in drilling. Additionally, the bigger drills are self-loading on the rod, so it is significantly faster and cleaner to deal with.
