Home Depot

Home Depot was founded in 1978 by Arthur Blank and Bernie Marcus. They, along with Ken Langone and Pat Farrah, wanted to offer a one-stop shop for people who are do-it-yourself types. In 1979, Home Depot opened its first two retail stores, 60,000 square feet each, in Atlanta, Georgia. Since then, Home Depot's growth has continued at a rapid pace.

As of 2008, Home Depot has approximately 2,000 stores, averaging over 100,000 square feet in size, and can be found in the United States, Canada, Mexico, Puerto Rico, the Virgin Islands, and Guam.

Home Depot is currently headquartered in Vinings, Georgia.

  make sure youre measuring the drill press throat, or maximum distance from the drill bit to the drills vertical column - most drill presses are measured as swing, which is half the rated distance. i.e., a 12" swing drill press really only has a 6" throat. my grizzly drill press has a 34" swing, for a full 17" throat.
