A unique Japanese drilling tool that gives you perfect accuracy

Welcome to Ebonisto! In this video we take a look at the Star-M Rulo Drill Stand, by Japanese tool company Star-M, who are turning 100 this year. They have built a strong reputation for inventing clever and interesting tools and this one is no exception— a portable drill press that locks in your angle, depth and even makes drilling into cylindrical wood like bamboo a breeze. We’ve paired the Star-M Rulo with their legendary bamboo drill bits which we’ll take a closer look at in an upcoming video.
